* Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins of Maine ( anyone still surprised?)
* and now Lamar Alexander of Tennessee
Bob Corker of Tennessee has said he will almost definitely vote for the pact,
while Judd Gregg of New Hampshire has said he is inclined to vote for it, too.

Toll-Free number to the Congressional Switchboard (866) 338-1015.
Tennessee’s 2 GOP senators Lamar Alexander and Bob Corker are pro Start Treaty.
Goodbye in 2012 to all Rinos supporting this....
Election? What election? Did we have an election?
* Dick Lugar of Indiana,
* George Voinovich of Ohio,
* Scott Brown of Massachusetts,
* Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins of Maine ( anyone still surprised?)
* and now Lamar Alexander of Tennessee
Bob Corker of Tennessee has said he will almost definitely vote for the pact, while Judd Gregg of New Hampshire has said he is inclined to vote for it, too.
More names for the vote out of office in the election list. Or whenever the next time they are up.
Fools every last one of them. They need not go home. They are not wanted.
So, Obammy already yanked the missile defense out of Poland (a fact I haven’t heard in any of these discussions).......how will this act of appeasement affect us?
Wow...I thought it would get through the cloture vote, but no way did I think this would get ratified.
Unreal. I’m sure the Russians are going to stick to their side of things, too! wink-wink
Call the traitors today non stop.
Tennessee, it’s time to step up and shut down the phone lines to this scum bag.
Main telephone lines in DC are busy. We need direct telephone numbers for these traitors so that we don’t have to use the main switchboard.
Freepers who are constituents must call non stop. They blow the rest of us off.
Alexander tried to prove that he is not the pansy he appears by walking across Tennessee. That was back when he was a young man preparing for another political campaign. But he has always been a squish. He walked all the way across Tennessee and he vacationed in the Australian Outback producing the book SIX MONTHS OFF. But he is still a squish.
Lamar Alexander is a squish.
There. Fixed it.
All you’ve got to do, to know that this treaty is BAD for America, is ask yourself this question: Is Mr. Obama for it? Well, then it is definitely bad for the nation.
Everything he does is wrong.
Johnny Isakson(GA) is leaning yes. WTF? He’s a reliable conservative, I thought~
It’s a great day to be Vladimir Putin. One direct order to America and its senators fall all over one another to obey. Amazing. Things are so different now...
President Reagan, I am sorry your party has decided to sh*t all over your legacy.
Our arguments, IMO, were pretty well dang standard lame and curiously dispassionate. Possibly, the Treaty itself is theatrics for some unknown reason—a pretend paper that isn’t all even that meaningful? I think it’s a weird Treaty from the get-go.
Lamar Alexander should be demoted to #46 Republican in the Senate from #3.
Let’s see:
In this Lame Duck session, our RINO senators have:
1. Voted for the ‘temporary’ Tax-cut extension (with unfunded unemployment benefit extensions, tax breaks for ethanol, solar, etc)
2. Repealed DADT
3. Ratified an unnecessary and harmful START treaty.
4. Passed Michelle’s unfunded $4.5 billion anti-obesity bill
5. Killed the Omnibus spending bill
6. Killed the DREAM act.
Can anyone answer me: Who won the November election?
Alexander has always been a pantywaist and always looking for opportunities to “cross the aisle”.
He is savvy enought to know how close he can approach the political line without crossing it enough to be thrown out yet.
Alexander was on the amnesty fence when Jorge W. Arbusto was pushing it until citizens would shown up at Alexander’s townhalls and shout him down, putting enough heat on him to make him back down.
I hope Alexander will be thrown out on his pansy butt in 4 years, but then I had hoped that 2 years ago.
Mitch McConnell is a real disaster as the GOP seante leader.
These traitors all need to be removed.
Corker is part of the Big Money Fence Straddling Political Machine of Chattanooga. He did not receive my vote for senate. My last vote for Alexander was for governor. Republicans need to learn that-R isn't always the right choice. When W anointed {gave his endorsement} to liberal Goober for replacing Thompson I knew we'd been SOLD OUT by RINO GOP.
