RINO Stampede: Olympia Snowe Joins GOP Senators Susan Collins and Scott Brown in Saying She Will Vote Against Ryan Budget Plan…

Why does Snowe insist on calling herself a Republican? She doesn’t have a conservative bone in her body.

Centrist Sen. Olympia Snowe (R-Maine) said Tuesday that she will vote against Rep. Paul Ryan’s (R-Wis.) budget when it comes up for a vote in the Senate.

Snowe, who is up for reelection in 2012, praised Ryan for proposing a budget but said that she disagrees with the way it reforms Medicare.

“I am going to vote ‘no’ on the budget because I have deep and abiding concerns about the approach on Medicare, which is essentially to privatize it,” Snowe told The Portland Press Herald.

Snowe joins her fellow Maine Sen. Susan Collins (R) and Massachusetts Sen. Scott Brown (R), each a centrist who has said they will oppose the budget. Like Snowe, Brown faces reelection in 2012.

    The 111th Congress led by Dingy Reid and Botox Nan failed to submit a budget and the Dims are afraid of submitting budget. They may have to make cuts to LBJ’s Great Society and Plantation.

    Well…
    In Maine, they are a pack of Socialist’s.. so come election time they just run two Democrats. Fair and even.. I think they flip a quarter to see who gets to run as a Republican.. ( They bum the quarter from the GOP rep…)

    Senator Murkowski is from my State, we have Begich, ( Baggage ) Democrat and Lisa, anointed by here Father, ( Frank Jetman Murkowski ) as princess of the North. She isn’t all bad, but every time it comes to serious business, when it’s really something important.. she sells us out.
    So her record is like 85% conservative… but that 15% is all the big ticket stuff.
    The conservative votes— mostly nickle dime fluff and clutter.
    Chicken, I’d bet you are right.

    @dmacleo
    Absolutely.
    I go vote, every time. Even when I am busy, tired, or just don’t feel like it.
    Our last election realized about 30% turnout. Ok..22%.
    More of ” Them” are showing up with their hands out.
    The reason for that is obvious.
    ” We ” are at work.

    yes I bet you are MarkRichardson. How many times did you vote? How many times did you vote for Murkowski?? As Alaska was full of soros when the 2nd count was orchestrated.

    Surprised. No I’m not. Votes like these are what she is paid [under the table] for. She has been purchased, boxed, wrapped and mailed by the Dems.

    Snowe & Brown are BOTH up for reelection in 2012.

    BUH-BYE!

    We’ll have to wait ’till 2014 to take down Collins.

    Swamp draining….coming up!

    @Tina

    Our great Senator Ted Stevens, was unseated by Begich in a very close race and only under the cloud of lies and controversy which was spread carefully by the liberal left. He is no longer with us due to a most unfortunate aviation accident.
    As I recall, he lost his first wife in an airplane crash. Sad.
    Anyway, we deal with the cards we are dealt.
    I cannot remember missing any election in the last 20 years or so…if nothing else, I put my two cents worth in.
    Vote early, vote often.
    I am sorry to report that I only cast ballot once per election day.
    Were I more dedicated, I would dig up some more credentials at the local graveyards.
    I do not understand ” Alaska was full of Soros” or, ” The second count”
    Do you refer to Miller? He did draw my vote, and even though I knew he was no Angel, I felt he was worth taking a chance on and that I would rather eat shit than go blind. Every time.
    I am no Angle either, but it has been a long road. I am not the man I was 30 years ago, but even then I was on the right track. I like to think I have clarified quite a bit. When I was a young man, it was easier to sell me a bill of goods because I had a misplaced faith in my fellow man. Those were great days.
    Now, so far as these RINO’s go, I believe the GOP has lost touch with integrity. They will put a bet on whatever horse carries their name to their best winning advantage, at the cost of their entire aggenda.
    I am dumbfounded at the lack of clear thought.
    I will never sell my ideals for 20 pieces of gold. There ain’t enough money. Don’t care.
    I think we are on the same side, but you may have misunderstood some of my “humor” which, sometimes, I admit…is a bit off the edge.
    Murkowski is a hobson’s choice. WE HAVE WORSE!!!
    Alaska is the home of all failed Politicians, Lawyers and Doctors, we have it rough here as it is a place they flee to in order to start with a fresh flock of sheep. That is reality here. If I need an elective surgery, I am going to Seattle.
    Unfortunantly, if I am voting for a Congressmen, that does not work.
    So there it is. Truce?
    Xox.
    Mark
    These are even better.

    We need control of the RNC to control the moderates money and remove them. Sick of em…. I’d rather lose than have to deal with them back stabing us time and time again. They are just another Democrat to be defeated and retired.

  25. Just_Saying says:

    Alaskan rinos supported Murkowski; Miller, with all his frailties, would have been a better Senator than she.

    Alaska is being overrun by liberals.

    These idiots like Murkowsky are as shallow and dumb as the poeple who vote for them… they are controlled by fear and superstition, and they are not intimately acquainted with the facts…

    San that they are in a position of power.

    Stupid .. shame on the voters who vote for promises of utopia.

    Chicken you beat me to the punch!!! That’s exactly what I was thinking. Murkowski was elected by RINOs, Democrats and Native Corporations. She is a massive disappointment. I don’t see how we will get rid of her. Joe is FAR more intelligent than she is but he made some stupid and frankly puerile errors.

    I wish the Republicans would fight back for Paul Ryan’s plan. He’s trying to save Medicare for our kids – can’t we run an ad showing the Dems throwing children off a cliff because they won’t do anything?

    I am sick of the pantywaists!!

    God bless America, Israel and our troops!
