Senator Evan Bayh is one of the great politicians in Indiana. He, along with Republican Richard Lugar, forms perhaps the classiest and most professional tandem of U.S. Senators from any state in the Union.
The reason the Founding Fathers gave senators a six-year term is so that they don’t become overly pressured to bend to the will of a self-centered populace. Remember, after all, the Senate is a national institution that deliberates over matters of national, not state, importance. Mr. Johansen (3/18), please recall it is natural for a senator to become “out of touch.”
Speaking of recall, let’s talk about that. The recall is a state device; therefore, it can only be used on the state, not national, level. Further, the State of Indiana doesn’t employ the recall; it’s not in our state constitution
Senator Bayh does not deserve this. Yes, he voted against Secretary Rice and Attorney General Gonzales, a tow-the-line-and-deny-any-responsibility administration lackey and an opponent of human rights, respectively. Drilling in ANWR is a decision that will set a dangerous precedent. Our National Parks system was created to preserve American beauty, and drilling will lead to the destruction of that beauty. Social Security does have looming problems, but even a growing number of Republicans dislike the Bush plan. Judges support gay marriage because they realize its inevitability. These same “activist” judges have brought us integrated schools and the concept of rights being read when you are arrested.
I personally can't wait for a Bayh presidency.
So there's that. You gotta love Freedom of Speech and Freedom of the Press.

Good for you.
Couple quick critiques... Isn't it "toe" the line?
... and Greenspan likes the plan, so who cares about the politicians. Of course, he (and I... I like Greenspan) says that this is is not a complete plan, but only a good way to stimulate savings, a very necessary part of any retirement plan. Also, Bush says he wants to to more Social Security reform.
Just had to put my two cents in for Dubya. I can't wait for a Bankes Presidency.
Hey Barney. Just read Friday's paper. Your opinion wasn't in there. You should sue!
