Here's an early Christmas present, folks:
"I have become increasingly concerned that the bills and policies pushed by the current Democratic leadership are not good for north Alabama or our nation and, more importantly, they do not represent my values and convictions."

Let me translate this for you...I am a Democrat in a heavy Republican district and the only chance I have of winning reelection is to switch parties. There are a bunch of conservatives in his district that are not very happy. My guess is that this will not work for him any more than Arlan Specter switching in Pa.

This is exactly what this scuz bucket is doing.   He faces a primary against a conservative.   I wager as soon as he wins the primary or is re-elected using this devious strategy, he'll sign right back up with the democrat party.

The abandon ship call has not come yet, but it is coming for the Democrats. The Democrat party will never recover from being labeled as the Party of Traitors.

HEY I DIDN"T NOTICE THIS BUT THERE IS THIS CLOCK THING THAT SHOWS THE NATIONAL DEBT THAT BUSH COLLECTED. COOL.
