1. Very powerful

2. The cruelest lie of all

I'm paraphrasing here, but you'll get the effect:

"You told me there were WMDs in Iraq. You told me that you could cut taxes, increase spending, and balance the budget. But this is the cruelest lie of all - that you can give to the rich to help the poor."

3. That's Rep Gene Taylor. He Rocks!!!!

I would love to see him grow on the political ladder. How the hell could they possibly smear someone as obviously genuine and decent as him ya know?

4. Gene Taylor - Blue Dog Democrat

He represents the Gulf Coast area and lost everything. He used to vote a lot with the Repugnicans but Katrina has really turned him against boosh and in a big way. (BTW, he voted in favor of Clinton's impeachment).

7. What's a Blue Dog Democrat?

I was listening to the debate and I realized that I have no idea what that is. This is probably just a "duh" moment but thanks in advance.

8. "Old School"...Conservative

One of the last throwbacks to the days when the Democrats dominated the South. Generally very socially conservative, pro defense and not too hot on civil rights issues.
