There’s Something in the Water in New England

I’m not sure what might be in the water that people and politicians are drinking but Rhode Island Senator Chaffee, another New Englander RINO, has come and publicly said he will not vote for Samuel Alito on Tuesday. He did say he would not vote in favor of a filibuster either.

To further prove that sliding to the left causes severe brain damage, Chaffee made this assinine comment in a report done by Fox News.

“How are we going to get anything done if we can’t work together?” Chafee asked.

Let me see if I understand. I don’t agree with you so I’m being an obstructionist and we now can’t get anything done because I won’t get on your bandwagon. I clearly do not understand what Chaffee is refering to.

Chaffee calls himself pro-choice, pro-environment and pro-Bill of Rights Senator. In case you don’t understand what he is refering to, I’ll assist you.

Pro-choice means that he believes that a woman is protected under the Constitution to murder her unwanted children. Pro-environment means he is all for finding more ways to continue taxing any business that has any remote effect on our environment. He believes that by taxing successful businesses, they too will eventually become dependant on our socialistic government – his job security.

Chaffee is pro-Bill of Rights. That means he thinks that our Bill of Rights should be modified daily to meet our ever changing societal demands. Forget that our Bill of Rights was designed to keep some semblance of moral decency and sanity in our society.

There is hope though. Chaffee is running for re-election this year and he is being challenged by Republican Cranston City Mayor Stephen Laffey, who says if he were in the Senate, he would vote to confirm Alito.

In Maine, Senator Collins has announced her support for Alito and Snowe has not announced one way or the other but today she issued a statement decrying the last ditch effort by some democrats to mount a filibuster.

Chaffee is the only Republican coming out against Alito. Republicans say they have the necessary votes without Chaffee to confirm Alito and ward off a filibuster.
