You know,..........NO ONE was more Pissed off over the 2000 FL. debacle than me,.....but as time goes by(almost 8 YEARS of time gone by), I've pretty much "let it go".
I'm focused on MORE Important things now.
For Instance........"11/04/2008"
At that time, the "chickens will Finally have come home to roost"
Time to think about a Democratic Filibuster proof Congress, A FUMIGATION of "1600", and the start of what very well might be...............War Crimes trials/Crimes against Humanity....in the HAGUE Netherlands.
YES....EL-CHIMPO,..It's true what they say.
"What goes around,.............Comes around"

I did, and my conclusion stands.
There is not a single piece of legislation from the US Senate that can be attributed to the junior Senator from IL.
Actually, even his latest ad, where he states something along the lines of helping to get better health care for US military members is a lie. That particular legislation refered to in the ad, if you follow the fine print you will find that it was war spending/appropriations bill (which he had nothng to do with), which passed the Senate 91-3 with 6 Senators not voting on it (abstaining?). One of the 6 abstaining was the one and only B. Hussein Obama.

Your reading comprehension needs major work. Look through the list of 125 items that are displayed for BO.
Then ignore the senate resolutions, they're meaningless (in the grand scheme of things). I'm talking about legislation that BO has sponsored (written) which have gone through the Senate, voted on and became law. None. Not a single one has even made it to the Senate floor to be voted on. Nice try though.

Too funny. You really, really should do some research before you keep making asinine comments.
If you wanted to discuss actual passed law rather than legislation in general, then you should have said so. But you didn't; you only limited it to legislation. So go ahead and change the rules midway through the game; it is your game. But even with your mid-game rule changes, I will still play... and WIN. Not only can I show you legislation Obama sponsored that has been voted on, I can even show you a bill sponsored by Obama that has been PASSED INTO LAW.
Ever heard of the Democratic Republic of the Congo Relief, Security, and Democracy Promotion Act of 2006? Apparently you have not heard of it! It falls within your new parameters. It was a bill; it was sponsored and introduced by Obama; it was voted on and passed in the senate floor; it was passed in the House, it was signed by the president and; it has become law. Thus, you are wrong!
Nice try though!
Neat site Lilly. I used to to search McCain's record. Yes he did sponsor a few bills that actually became law. I just searched the 109th Congress. Every single one that passed pertained to the Native Americans that lived in AZ. Not saying that they do not need representation (after the way the US ahas screwed over the Native Americans they need all the help they can get) but how about the rest of us? Is he just worried about keeping his job and does he know there are 49 other states?
If you want to make the lack of Obamas record an issue that is fine. I think it is a valid concern. I also think McCain's record is of concern as well.
