Here is an article that is being passed around digg.com currently which I thought might help enlighten some of you people who are able to recognize
true patriotism and character right away:
Consider a bill into which _____ clearly put his heart and soul. The problem he wanted to address was that too many confessions, rather than being
voluntary, were coerced -- by beating the daylights out of the accused.
______ proposed requiring that interrogations and confessions be videotaped.
He played a major role in passing many other bills, including the state's first earned-income tax credit to help the working poor and the first
ethics and campaign finance law in 25 years (a law a Post story said made _____ "one of the best in the nation on campaign finance disclosure").
_____'s commitment to ethics continued in the U.S. Senate, where he co-authored the new lobbying reform law that, among its hard-to-sell provisions,
requires lawmakers to disclose the names of lobbyists who "bundle" contributions for them.
Taken together, these accomplishments demonstrate that _____ has what Dillard, the Republican state senator, calls a "unique" ability "to deal with
extremely complex issues, to reach across the aisle and to deal with diverse people." In other words, _____'s campaign claim that he can persuade us
to rise above what divides us is not just rhetoric.
I've taken out his/her name so that you have to guess at to who it was that did this. Who's on your mind as to who would do such things?
Who's name did I take out, and why did you guess whom you did?
