I am a registered independent but I watched the debate on Wednesday between Senator Boxer and Ms. Fiorina.
Obviously, Ms. Boxer won. No doubt about that. Ms. Fiorina came off as just another money-motivated Republican not unlike her friend, Ms. Whitman (more on that bitch in future posts). I predict some panic-induced Hail Mary moves by Ms. Fiorina's campaign as we draw closer and closer to Election Day. Enough said about Ms. Fiorina.
I also, however, have some problems with Senator Boxer. I checked her voting record and although Ms. Boxer has represented my views on many issues and bills, I discovered some surprising results.
In the past, Senator Boxer has voted:
YES - on loosening restrictions regarding wire tapping of YOUR phone
(Seems a bit scary to me.)
YES - on Congressional pay raises (2009)
(In this economy? Not exactly a move reflecting political genius.)
YES - on allowing illegal immigrants to participate in Social Security
(WTF?)
YES - on automatic visas for skilled workers
(Really? When lots of skilled American citizens are unemployed?)
NO - on limiting Congressional gifts
(Tells me she is enrolled in the 'Gifts for Favorable Votes' program)
NO - on establishing committee to oversee Public Integrity
(See above 'NO' vote on limiting Congressional gifts.)
NO - on banning Partial Birth Abortions
(I am Pro-Choice. I am Anti-Baby Torture. Please
Google 'Partial Birth Abortions' for a reality check.)
NO - on Balanced Budget Amendment (1997)
(Huh?)
NO - on limiting welfare for illegal immigrants
(Seriously?)
Just sayin.....
