Pete DeFazio Rocks!

[paineinthearse]

Yesterday on the House floor he ripped * "political hacks". With assistance yesterday from his DC office and the Congressional Record today I can post a transcript and background information.

Pete Defazio, :yourock:

1. I love Peter De Fazio.

I wrote Wyden, Hooley and De Fazio regarding my disgust for the Roberts nomination and only Peter bothered to kick me back a form letter about the relevant issues. I had no idea that his support for choice is actually probably the strongest of those three Dems. That tells me something.

2. Go Pete!

I like DeFazio; he very rarely disappoints.

3. I've gotten to sit with Pete before in tourist on planes heading west

He needs to be far more pro-active about saving old growth, but in this district you are damned if you please the timber corporations and damned if you don't.

I would prefer pete to Gordo for Senator any day of the week, twice on Sunday.

4. If we can just find somebody who can hold his Congressional seat....

On the other hand, maybe the Senate spot is worth losing a seat in the House....
