Sam Brownback Has Co-Sponsored Bills With The Most Liberal Senator!

Republican Senator and failed presidential candidate Sam Brownback, on a conference call today: “John McCain’s a maverick. He’s fought for a bipartisan fashion … I think that the biggest thing I’ve seen from Barack Obama is a willingness, aggressiveness, to talk bipartisan and yet to vote the hard left — most liberal member of the United States Senate.” A known liberal!

Hey Sam Brownback, remember that time you and Barack Obama wrote a Bipartisan op-ed for the Washington Post in 2005, about some of that Bipartisan stuff you two co-sponsored? [CQ]

    I swear, at first I thought it said “…is my homoboy.”

  2. SayItWithWookies says at 4:46 pm, June 26th, 2008

    Gotta work on your Jedi mind trick, Brownback. Repeat after me: “These are not the contradictions you are looking for. They may go about their business.”

    Goddammit, Wonkette, there you go again using those “facts” [said in Homor Simpson scronful voice].

  4. freakishlystrong says at 4:47 pm, June 26th, 2008

    Ok, enough with the “Maverick” shit already, personally in this dreadful, right-wing atmosphere we are all currently suffering through, I think the most “librul” member of the Sentate is a Maverick, (plus, it rhymes with “dick”)…

  5. Doglessliberal says at 4:47 pm, June 26th, 2008

    Truculent: well, that might well be true. He just hasn’t been caugh tapping yet. He probably has a major fetish for Mexican boys, given his rhetoric.

  6. Doglessliberal says at 4:48 pm, June 26th, 2008

    Doglessliberal: “scornful”. sheesh

  7. SocialList says at 4:49 pm, June 26th, 2008

    I’m from Kansas and now live just across the border in Missouri,and even the Republicans around here think Brownback is a boy fucker,and ignore the shit out of him.They’d vote his ass out in a heartbeat if a Rethug with a less sodomizing pedophile sounding name would run against him.

  8. I always wonder: What the fuck is wrong with being a liberal?

  9. Doglessliberal says at 4:50 pm, June 26th, 2008

    Doglessliberal: JEEBUS. “caught”. OK, time for me to stop typing.

  10. shortsshortsshorts says at 4:50 pm, June 26th, 2008

    From the article I gather he forgot all the bi-partisan unity when he and Barry were doing coke in the back of a limo while he sucked Barry off.

  11. freakishlystrong says at 4:52 pm, June 26th, 2008

    freakishlystrong: Ahhhhgggg..”SENATE”

  12. freakishlystrong says at 4:53 pm, June 26th, 2008

    Tawmn: Everything, if you’re a right-wing nut…

  13. queeraselvis v 2.0 says at 4:54 pm, June 26th, 2008

    What, no “boy fucker” tag? For shame, Wonkette!

  14. Canmon (the Inadequate) says at 4:55 pm, June 26th, 2008

    Darfur is a partisan issue? It’s not like there’s a pro-genocide lobby in Washington.

  15. ronaldpagan says at 4:57 pm, June 26th, 2008

    DUDE, this kind of shit is the reason Bear-Bear is methodically breaking my heart by putting his money where his mouth is. First voting for the FISA bill and then being all “Fuck yeah we should give the death penalty to child rapists” yesterday. I knew all this “reaching across the aisle” talk was gonna come back to haunt him.

  16. freakishlystrong says at 4:58 pm, June 26th, 2008

    Canmon (the Inadequate): After 8 years of these asshats in DC? Don’t count on it…

  17. Cape Clod says at 4:59 pm, June 26th, 2008

    What was the bill they co-sponsored? I’m too lazy to click through, it’s Thursday.
    I bet it was a proclamation making the State Song of Kansas ‘The Willie Yanker’s Polka”.

  18. shortsshortsshorts says at 5:04 pm, June 26th, 2008

    Cape Clod: Everyone hates Iran.

  19. Count Snarkula says at 5:07 pm, June 26th, 2008

    Cape Clod: Seriously, I am going to need a copy of that song. Preferable recorded by Boots Randolph. It would be the perfect recessional tune if I ever have my big gay wedding in Cali.

  20. Brownback doesn’t remember writing the article, because he “co-wrote” it with Obama like Ben Affleck ‘co-wrote’ “Good Will Hunting” with Matt Damon.

  21. 4tehlulz says at 5:15 pm, June 26th, 2008

    Facts are for fags!

  22. StupidGeek says at 5:27 pm, June 26th, 2008

    Bipartisan fashion doesn’t sound like anything I’d want to wear.

  23. GlennBecksTaint says at 5:34 pm, June 26th, 2008

    Tawmn: Conservatives are the new Feudalists.

  24. Canuckledragger says at 5:58 pm, June 26th, 2008

    Brownback = Brownnose.

    He blows…. whichever way the wind breaks.

  25. Mr. Herpes says at 6:05 pm, June 26th, 2008

    I think we’ve all grown Haggard over this. I wonder if Sen. Sam has noticed yet that Larry Craig always follows him into the can? Boise’s favorite Butt Boy can’t resist giggling everytime the Senate clerk calls Brownback’s name.

  26. qwerty42 says at 6:10 pm, June 26th, 2008

    this looks like the new plan the Republicans are trying. The country club was not so good, so now Obama is not “bipartisan”. Or if he is, it is only for such obvious left-wing stuff such as Nuclear Non-proliferation. HFC, this is preposterous.

  27. AnnieGetYourFun says at 6:42 pm, June 26th, 2008

    My mind must be all gay today, because not only did I read “is my homoboy”, but I can’t stop seeing “Sam Brokeback” every time I read his name.

  28. Nevermind that stint with commie Lugar and his pinko nonproliferation. Sheesh.

  29. ColdCupofHope says at 8:12 pm, June 26th, 2008

    Canmon (the Inadequate): No, Charlie Black is totally on the Pro-Genocide lobbyist roll call. The man just can turn down good money. Well, not “good” so much, but…

  30. masterdebater says at 8:36 pm, June 26th, 2008

    You have to admit that it is damn funny that Brownback thinks there is someone out there that is still listening to his bullshit! Good one Sam!

  31. Sabre_Justice says at 9:58 pm, June 26th, 2008

    masterdebater: Aren’t we?

  32. ThreeFingersNeat says at 9:26 am, June 27th, 2008

    StupidGeek: Bi fashion is the new drag.

  33. wallythepug says at 9:40 am, June 27th, 2008

    This new talking point about Hopey not working across the aisle is hysterical. Esp. when you see that GOP Senator from Oregon braggin’ on his Obama love.

  34. gurukalehuru says at 12:27 pm, June 27th, 2008

    @Anniegetyourfun For some reason, I always read it as Brownbutt. Any way you look at it, and there are many ways too look at it, it’s one of the greatest names in politics.

  35. jerryw says at 2:15 pm, June 29th, 2008

    AnnieGetYourFun:

    Senator Larry Craig is said to be making plans to change the name of the
    airport access road in Minnesota to the Brownback Highway.

    Somehow, I don’t think that’s going to sit well with Sam Brownbrokeback,
    but if there’s anyone that knows about sitting well and airports, it would
    be Senator Larry Craig.

    So sorry….
