Jeffords Leaves Republican Party 

Sen. James Jeffords
(Direct descendent of Karl Marx) 
AP/Kenneth Lambert MAY 24, 09:43 EST 

BURLINGTON, Vt. (AP) � Sen. James Jeffords bolted the Republican Party and declared himself an independent on Thursday, giving Democrats control of the U.S. Senate for the first time since 1994.

 

(The DemocRATS have control of the U.S. Senate for the first time since the largest landslide in United States Congressional history!  Of course, that was the electorate throwing a collective "tantrum" as one of the Big Three's talking heads put it that night back in November of 1994!  The worst part of this DemocRAT operative's defection is that the American people will not know what a fully Republican Government is capable of.  It has been five decades since the last 3/3 Republican Government... who knows how long it will be before we get the next one given the CONSTANT and BLATANT anti-Republican coverage by the DemocRATS "Free Press"!  All we get now is Ted "Bridge of troubled waters" Kennedy and Tommy over in the Senate majority locking everything in Government down and blaming it on Bush (43)!  This is a sad day for our Republic.  I can hear Bill over at the Weekly Standard already crucifying Bush (43) for this.  I am afraid the Republicans in the Senate are going to start feeding on themselves pretty soon... thanks for the "Leadership" Trent Slutt! - tha malcontent)

Jeffords made his announcement after a last-ditch effort by Republicans to keep him in the fold.

 

(Which was a waste of time Trent!... he is, was and always will be a DemocRAT!  The only reason he went (I) is because this "scheme" on the part of the DemocRATS to win the Senate outside of the election process and the "will of the people" would have been so painfully transparent that it would have hurt them in 2002 and 2004.  The "Free Press" is not about to illustrate this to "the people", they are too busy celebrating the fact that their party is in control of the Senate again!  The stalling on the part of Senate DemocRATS in the last week regarding the Bush (43) tax bill sure comes into question in light of this recent development, doesn't it! - tha malcontent)

``In order to best represent my state of Vermont, my own conscience and principals that I have stood for my whole life, I will leaved the Republican Party and become an independent,'' Jeffords said as his supporters erupted in cheers.

 

(Yes, it says "leaved"... the AP has editors for this kind of thing!  I hope this "political game" opens the eyes of some in my party to the battle lines that are being drawn by the DemocRATS!  There is no such thing as "bi-partisanship"!  This is WAR! - tha malcontent)

Jeffords said that he had been ``struggling with a very difficult decision'' for the past several weeks.

 

("Judas" is struggling with a lot of things... namely, his re-election bid.  Think about that for next few years, "Mark"!  One last thought, had the Republicans taken control of one-third of the Government by planting an operative in the DemocRAT party and then bribing him with a powerful position to switch the power of the Senate, the DemocRATS and their "Free Press" would have screamed "bloody murder" and "subversion of the Constitutional election process".  Keep in mind, the DemocRATS controlling the Senate in May of 2001 was not the "will of the people" at the polls in November of 2000.  So now all of you whiners who FALSELY claim that we have a "popular vote" for the President can now SHUT UP and SIT DOWN!  FACT: This Republic has 50 independent "popular" votes for President as well as for Senators and members of the House.  Vermont voted for a Republican in November... instead, what they got was the worst type of dishonest political operative.  He isn't even man enough to be honest and join the party he just handed the Senate to... How pathetic! - tha malcontent)
