Very simple, because of what he has said and how he has handled himself after he said it is clear he will not be respected and will have little to no authority in the position.
It isn't about what the man said, because we have the right to say what we want, however he has completely diminished his power and there for should not be in a position of power. I don't say he should be removed from office, his district voted on him knowing what he believes, I just feel he should be replaced as majority leader, we'll let his district(state) determine what needs to be done with him in the next election. As for Iraq, he is a thug, he lies and disregards UN resolutions, he needs to be dealt with. Not dealing with him is just like saying the UN has no power. > -----Original Message----- > From: Timothy Heald [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Friday, December 20, 2002 10:30 AM > To: CF-Community > Subject: RE: Hello? > > You think he should be removed? > > Well lets play devils advocate.
