max, Saturday, 28 November 2009 15:56 (sixteen years ago)

thinking about jim demint at this point--might also go with saxby chambliss

max, Saturday, 28 November 2009 15:56 (sixteen years ago)

obviously orrin hatch is a terrible person

max, Saturday, 28 November 2009 15:59 (sixteen years ago)

demints role in the honduras coup was what really encouraged me to start this poll btw--what a shitheel

max, Saturday, 28 November 2009 16:00 (sixteen years ago)

voted chambliss despite his delicious chicken dinners

Great word. Not sure what it means, but so . . . descriptive.

Daniel, Esq., Saturday, 28 November 2009 16:12 (sixteen years ago)

easily enough candidates for most ridiculously named sister poll.

rap band (schlump), Saturday, 28 November 2009 16:30 (sixteen years ago)

Voted Thad Cochran for being such a willing anonymous pawn of the bigger at-least-you-know-where-you-stand-with-them assholes like Kyl/Hatch/Graham/McConnell.

Bob Saget's "Night Moves": C or D (WmC), Saturday, 28 November 2009 16:38 (sixteen years ago)

i want 2 know who the BEST republican us senator is

riddle me that motherfuckers

farting irl (cankles), Saturday, 28 November 2009 16:50 (sixteen years ago)

jim bunning is best baseball player in the senate

max, Saturday, 28 November 2009 17:07 (sixteen years ago)

dunno if that counts

max, Saturday, 28 November 2009 17:07 (sixteen years ago)

they play baseball in the senate?

The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall, Saturday, 28 November 2009 17:59 (sixteen years ago)

I thought the senators playes hockey...

The Viceroy (Viceroy), Saturday, 28 November 2009 18:02 (sixteen years ago)

youll be doin a Dem poll, yes? (no Joe L)

Feingold/Kaptur 2012 (Dr Morbius), Saturday, 28 November 2009 18:04 (sixteen years ago)

too many democrats :( - only 50 poll options

max, Saturday, 28 November 2009 18:05 (sixteen years ago)

you can do runoffs

Feingold/Kaptur 2012 (Dr Morbius), Saturday, 28 November 2009 18:06 (sixteen years ago)

you know in retrospect i forgot what a terrible asshole jim bunning is

max, Saturday, 28 November 2009 18:06 (sixteen years ago)

mike crapo has a cool name

velko, Saturday, 28 November 2009 18:16 (sixteen years ago)

also, you guys sure do hate them republicans

velko, Saturday, 28 November 2009 18:17 (sixteen years ago)

ts: crapo vs brownback

rap band (schlump), Saturday, 28 November 2009 18:35 (sixteen years ago)

god crapo has been an Idaho senator for as long as I can remember. He's terrible - even Larry Craig is better.

The Viceroy (Viceroy), Saturday, 28 November 2009 19:47 (sixteen years ago)

I feel like there's an upper limit to how bad these dudes can get and a lot of them hit that upper limit, so it's sorta hard to differentiate.

iatee, Saturday, 28 November 2009 19:54 (sixteen years ago)

sam brownback

¨°º¤ø„¸¸„ø¤º°¨ (Lamp), Saturday, 28 November 2009 19:57 (sixteen years ago)

hard to beat inhofe for the sheer crazy bullshit/words uttered ratio

goole, Saturday, 28 November 2009 20:07 (sixteen years ago)

dick lugar appears to be less insane on foreign policy than the median senator but that's not saying much

goole, Saturday, 28 November 2009 20:09 (sixteen years ago)

if you want a "best" answer that is

goole, Saturday, 28 November 2009 20:09 (sixteen years ago)

voted cornyn

Danny Duberstein (hmmmm), Saturday, 28 November 2009 20:13 (sixteen years ago)

Inhofe

President Keyes, Saturday, 28 November 2009 21:24 (sixteen years ago)

don't forget about Jeff Sessions, guys.

Matt Armstrong, Saturday, 28 November 2009 21:27 (sixteen years ago)

three weeks pass...

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

System, Sunday, 20 December 2009 00:01 (sixteen years ago)

Inhofe v. Cornyn IMO

smashing aspirant (milo z), Sunday, 20 December 2009 00:02 (sixteen years ago)

Inhofe FTW.

The Hood Won't Jump (Eazy), Sunday, 20 December 2009 00:07 (sixteen years ago)

Coburn vs Cornyn vs Inhofe vs Demint cage match, with several other abominations to humanity just below. Srsly fuck these people.

Quiet, I'm making my Youtube Star Wars Review (Z S), Sunday, 20 December 2009 01:22 (sixteen years ago)

i voted for Inhofe, though i could've just as easily voted for Coburn, Chambliss, DeMint, Bunning, or Sessions.

How About a Nice Cuppa Shit on a Shingle, Soldier? (Eisbaer), Sunday, 20 December 2009 03:35 (sixteen years ago)

I also voted for Inhofe. He and Rep. Barton (R - TX) sound like they get their absurd climate/energy info from the same creationist lobbyist.

Quiet, I'm making my Youtube Star Wars Review (Z S), Sunday, 20 December 2009 03:38 (sixteen years ago)

I saw something where Inhofe was explaining how he believed the climate change conspiracy was being perpetrated, and at that point he went beyond being a guy who has like 0% ideologically in common with me and became a dude who literally believes in a secret global conspiracy of scientists to usurp American freedom. That's just so depressing to me.

C-L, Sunday, 20 December 2009 03:47 (sixteen years ago)

Yep. As bad as most of these senators are, he's one of the few that actually makes me think worse of the people of the state that he represents for electing him.

Quiet, I'm making my Youtube Star Wars Review (Z S), Sunday, 20 December 2009 03:55 (sixteen years ago)

i'm voting olympia snowe because she so obviously KNOWS BETTER, which is something i can't say for sure about inhofe, demint, etc.

hellzapoppa (tipsy mothra), Sunday, 20 December 2009 14:27 (sixteen years ago)

McConnell, Mitch - (R - KY) Class II

i just hate his face. he looks like a turtle, which makes me mad at turtles. and i have pet turtles. it's not right.

"seven churches is fucking amazing." (GOTT PUNCH II HAWKWINDZ), Sunday, 20 December 2009 15:15 (sixteen years ago)

classes I II and III correspond to what shitheads they are y/n? (also, what does that I, II and III mean serious civics question).

Astronaut Mike Dexter (Jimmy The Mod Awaits The Return Of His Beloved), Sunday, 20 December 2009 15:25 (sixteen years ago)

even though there are maybe a few who are objectively worst (I mean, it is inhofe, right?), voted lindsay graham cause I just hate that motherfucker

dyao mak'er (The Reverend), Sunday, 20 December 2009 15:26 (sixteen years ago)

class tells when they're up for re-election

welcome to gudbergur (harbl), Sunday, 20 December 2009 15:27 (sixteen years ago)

class I/II/III corresponds to when they are elected (i.e. a third of the senate is elected every 2 years)

dyao mak'er (The Reverend), Sunday, 20 December 2009 15:27 (sixteen years ago)

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

System, Monday, 21 December 2009 00:01 (sixteen years ago)

i am glad that folks hate Chambliss (though not as much as Inhofe) -- what he did to Max Cleland seven years is a permanent black mark on his soul.

How About a Nice Cuppa Shit on a Shingle, Soldier? (Eisbaer), Monday, 21 December 2009 00:50 (sixteen years ago)

best gop senator would be interesting imo

dumb pl4nk (k3vin k.), Monday, 21 December 2009 00:52 (sixteen years ago)

lugar?

akm, Monday, 21 December 2009 01:38 (sixteen years ago)

Wish I saw this before it ended. Jim Bunning is obviously a disgrace and a train wreck and deserves a vote.

kornrulez6969, Monday, 21 December 2009 01:51 (sixteen years ago)

Damn. I feel good about voting for Lindsey Graham already.

http://rawstory.com/2009/12/lindsey-graham-cites-blacks-as-disadvantage/

aim chtza (The Reverend), Saturday, 26 December 2009 06:49 (sixteen years ago)

two months pass...

Would Bunning win this if it was taken today? I'd vote for him.

Bill Magill, Tuesday, 2 March 2010 17:40 (sixteen years ago)

he's lost his marbles

('_') (omar little), Tuesday, 2 March 2010 17:42 (sixteen years ago)

Bunning stunt is pretty lame but Inhofe is consistently demonstrative of how unbelievably unfit for public office he is

mark roflr (Shakey Mo Collier), Tuesday, 2 March 2010 17:52 (sixteen years ago)

This Bunning thing has the potential to be seriously devastating to a lot of people. Its fucked up that one idiot can pull something like this, what an institutional failure. Can we get the Dubai hotel crew on this guy?

Bill Magill, Tuesday, 2 March 2010 18:32 (sixteen years ago)

magill otm

everyone see the daily show's segment on bunning last night?

waka flocka pedia (J0rdan S.), Tuesday, 2 March 2010 18:33 (sixteen years ago)

No, but i'll look for it

Bill Magill, Tuesday, 2 March 2010 18:38 (sixteen years ago)

it didn't really eviscerate bunning as much as *throws hands up* the fact that one dude can just stone wall something like this. also has some hilarious desperation moments from dick durbin as well as a ridiculously bitchy comment by bunning at the end

highly rec'd

waka flocka pedia (J0rdan S.), Tuesday, 2 March 2010 18:44 (sixteen years ago)

Thanks!

Bill Magill, Tuesday, 2 March 2010 19:03 (sixteen years ago)

Bunning's old enough to make dementia a possible issue.

Christine Green Leafy Dragon Indigo, Tuesday, 2 March 2010 20:59 (sixteen years ago)

Reading Taylor Branch's The Clinton Tapes last night, I coincidentally found this:

Bunning was so mean-spirited that he repulsed even his fellow know-nothings. "I tried to work with him a couple of times," said Clinton, "and he just sent shivers up my spine." Mysteriously, the president apologized to me: "I know you're a baseball fan and everything, and you don't like to hear it, but this guy is beyond the pale."

Inculcate a spirit of serfdom in children (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 2 March 2010 21:04 (sixteen years ago)

In honor of this thread ... my friend made it a project to draw a quick sketch of every senator. Here's his Bunning:

Your body is a spiderland (polyphonic), Tuesday, 2 March 2010 21:12 (sixteen years ago)

I just read on Deadspin that he gave the bird to an ABC camera crew.

Bill Magill, Tuesday, 2 March 2010 22:17 (sixteen years ago)

that was yesterday. today he's "ready to deal"
