Olympia Snowe has sold out the country. Having been banished to our world after Aslan chased her out of Narnia, Snowe is intent on corrupting this place too.
So we should melt her.
What melts snow? Rock salt.
I’m going to ship this 5 pound bag of rock salt to her office in Maine. It’s only $3.00. You should join me.
It is a visible demonstration of our contempt for her. First she votes for the stimulus. Now this.
It’s time to melt Snowe. ORDER YOUR BAG HERE.

rwersheir (Diary) Wednesday, October 14th at 2:34AM EST (link)Rock salt is good….but here’s something else to try: removerinos.com . We’re on a mission to defeat every RINO who ever runs in another GOP primary. Our main vehicle is a website, removerinos.com, aimed at compiling an e-mail list of 25,000 potential donors to any candidate who’ll oppose Snowe and/or 22 other RINOs. With over 500 citations (2/3 from the ACU), it’s also one of the most informative sites on the subject of RINO voting records. After Snowe’s vote today, THIS truly is the time to start putting together donor lists to try to beat these RINOs. Please go to removerinos.com to see what you can do. We can still put a lot of pressure on Snowe’s before the final vote.
Yeah?

I Don't Mind What Senator Snowe Did Here
Spartan4Life (Diary) Tuesday, October 13th at 4:27PM EST (link)She called McConnell and said she had reservations about the bill but was going to vote for it “to keep process moving”.
I kind of agree. This monstrosity needs to get to conference. All of this is just smoke until the House and Senate Democrats write the final legislation in conference. That ought to be a real circus. Betting that by the time the American people get a look at that spectacle the support for this “reform” will be less than 15%.
BTW, the Republicans should boycott the conference(but they won’t).
The process would have kept moving
cwilson (Diary) Wednesday, October 14th at 10:57AM EST (link)without her vote. Don’t you get it yet? The Dems have an absolute, unbreakable majority in both House and Senate. They can pass anything they want to — assuming they have the political courage to do it.
Giving them unnecessary Republican support — with or without so-called “reservations” — helps shore up that political courage.
This is NOT something Republican Senators should be doing.

My (combined) wish list.
Thanks for being here leftylurker (and the few other "reasonable" Liberals)
JLenardDetroit (Diary) Wednesday, October 14th at 6:23PM EST (link)and Open Letter to other Liberal/Democrat lurkers….
You are indeed one of a few Liberals (I’ll speak for myself only and say) I look forward to reading/engaging here at RedState as you are one of the few that can engage and be respectful while doing so. We won’t agree on many things, but I hold out hope for you still in the long run
lol – since you’re open to honest/factual debate/discussion.
You do know, however, there are some (probably much farther left and on the Democrat fringe perhaps) here just to Troll/Moby and be disruptive. They come here with the intent to be banned eventually, because they can than slither back to the DailyKook nest and wear their dismissal/banning as a Badge Of Lefty-loon Honor…. You also know (and I state for the benefit of other casual observers) We generally adhere to the Hinz-Rule (or King-Rule) and ignore them, or just attempt to dismiss troll, but it is sometimes Therapuetic almost for us to have some fun (levity) at their attempts to trolljack a thread before they get the Blam-stick. As I engaged herein this thread. Sometimes we may get a bit carried away, to which I will apologize (again, only for myself) if I have.
Again, there are many aspects of discussion we welcome Left perspectives and attempts to correct what we believe to be misperceptions and/or Democrat mis-leadings in such matters — such as: the “It Takes A Village” concept I’ve addressed in a few (one here: Liberals misuse Religion for Liberal Govt. expansion and/or Dealing with our Frustration with the Politically Brain-dead) Diaries.
Again — MOST OF US WELCOME LIBERALS FOR DISCUSSIONS — shame they can’t all be “polite,” nice, etc… like you!!! An Echo-chamber doesn’t help us to best define our arguments and presentations, but attempting to bother to be a member and engage in disucssion at DailyKooks or HuffPooPoo would be as futile for us. I hope you invite more of your friends that are “reasonable” like you to come by.

One fears most the ignorance of the people; the other, the selfishness of rulers independent of them. Which is right, time and experience will prove.”.Thomas Jefferson

If the Democrats are intent (as they always are) in wrecking this country with their ever expanding desire for more government, no Republicans should give them a helping hand. That Snowe would do so, just show how backwards her thinking really is.

….as in the Daily Dimes Dichotomy: creating an NRSC: Daily Dimes Dichotomy (see too: RNC called, I hung up! & Republicans must be the Party of NO [to Bigger Govt.] not the Party of SLOW[er Liberal Incremental-ism]) she needs to be sent the message in a manner they understand $$$$$ as the costs associated with dealing with a flood of 2 cent checks would exceed the money received.
While we’re at it, we should be sending 2 cent checks to McLame and Gramnesty too… where is that Checkbook at, as I need to be the first to do this…. Worth the 2 cents and the “Forever” Stamps I stocked up on back when they were only 39 cents —
PostOffice.
Hope I can count on the others involved in those DDD conversations to step up and do likewise.
BTW: I have more “fund-raiser” letters and postage-paid envelopes… I’ll be sending those back in without contributions (to COST THEM MONEY, again – to try and get a point across by costing them money rather than generating them some) and a Note that I will NOT send them any money, EVER, until McCANE, Snowe-job, Tom-Collins, Gramnesty, are NO LONGER IN OFFICE! *OR* are getting and buckling under to appropriate pressures from the Party (acting like a Red-Dog rather than a RINO.

JLenardDetroit (Diary) Wednesday, October 14th at 1:12AM EST (link)and for all others’ consideration… If you have online Banking with Auto-pay capability for a flat fee — you too should consider this….
It costs me NOTHING but the 2 cents per person (even I can afford 10 cents a month or so for this strategy
lol) I’m sending the 2 cents Check to, so I’ve decided I’m going to setup Auto-pay MONTHLY Checks to, at least, Snowe ME and McCain AZ, and that list may grow (probably add Graham)…
These, of course, need to be PHYSICAL CHECKS being sent, as Electronic Payments go pretty-much sight-unseen and need to show up in their Offices in an envelope to force them to open and process the impact of the message and point that (my 2 cents, every month, is that they should RESIGN). They have to be physical checks to 1. Tie up the personnel to actually handle the check and see the point .2. Take the time/effort to post the contribution to “official” campaign records ….. etc…. EVENTUALLY, if enough of us do this, it may start to sink in….

Mike gamecock DeVine (Diary) Wednesday, October 14th at 10:39AM EST (link)So, just because some blue dawgs voted against this in committee, will not save them from my wrath if they vote for the final bill, so too if Snowe votes against the fianl bill, this interim vote will be irrelevant. I care about what gets enacted into law. PERIOD. I have indulged to many democrat conservative apologists in my life who would point to meanigless votes to justify their staying in the dem party.
But as for snowe and graham, there is already enough resons not to support them for re-election.
But as to the health care bill, I will hold people accountable for the final votes on the bill to make it law or not. Actual laws effect my life, not committee votes and floor speeches.

IJB Wednesday, October 14th at 11:17AM EST (link)"Duplicity" votes
JLenardDetroit (Diary) Wednesday, October 14th at 2:52PM EST (link)we’ve discussed a few times and I touch on in CRA and is a shame that some folks (mostly those Liberal Laziness folks that never pay attention therefore fall for all that everytime) don’t understand how that works. It is, as you know, not always just votes like this, especially in the House – usually competing Bills exist and they trade votes on/for one over the other so-as to have Votes (in pocket to quote back in District) knowing they will pass the final Bill yet say they were “against” (if cornered pull the compromise BS excuse – gotta have a Bill garbage) and point to their NO vote…. Or, of course, the other way around, depending upon who they are talking to at the time and needing to twist their position (desire to grow Government at any cost for any reason) to fit what the potential Voter wants to hear!
Again, you know that…. we have to keep repeating it for those visitors (casual readers) that drop by and do not yet.
As fro Snowe, Graham, McCain…. they have gone against us far too many times in every context and it is only those way over the line RINOs I’m hoping to make the 2 cents Check RESIGN statement with/against – since it really does only cost me 2 cents a month per RINO. They are certainly NOT going to resign nor are they ever going to listen to us to vote the right way, they will continue to try and throw us a vote only enough to “calm us down” and not be so vocal about them – I don’t want anyone letting up anymore. If we do not demonstrate, IMO, that we are willing to truly dog them and try to remove them (Primary preferred) then we don’t have the full-force of our words when we ask/demand Conservatives work with us WITHIN the Republican Party to force it Conservative – we then appear duplicitous if we keep letting them off the hook.
Your point regarding this “Vote out of Committee” is taken…. Not a final Bill vote, a nuance Snowe has gone out of her way to imply with her “it may not be my vote later” quote all over the MSM. But in this case particularly, she knows darn well it is all about allowing the BI-PARTISAN BS SPIN and again allowed herself to be used (and/or to purposefully appear to set up that “duplicity” vote for Democrats in ME to have reason to vote for her). So while in many cases I would otherwise agree with your point on it – I cannot in this case! Was her vote even needed? Since when is the 60% rule required on Committee votes?!?!?! It would have been 13-9 if she just didn’t vote or 13-10 with her NO vote — still out of committee1

Plainly stated: Snowe's vote wasn't needed to move it out of Committee....
JLenardDetroit (Diary) Wednesday, October 14th at 3:45PM EST (link)I have spoken with 6 different Senate Offices and the Senate Finance Committee office itself to confirm it only requires 50% vote out of committee…. Therefore, Snowe’s vote to make it 14-9 was only for the BI-PARTISAN BS SPIN cover!!!! She could have and should have voted NO and it still would have moved from Committee.
senate.finance.gov/rules.pdf does not implicitly say it and I have thus far haven’t found anyone (I’ve got calls into Press departments) that can give me a definative reference to provide a citation.
So those looking to make excuses, cover, or work-arounds for her votes (no, not refering to anyone in this particular conversation – just general about the MSM talking heads spin) can maybe get around to reporting that inconvenient FACT!!!!!

snowshooze (Diary) Tuesday, October 13th at 9:53PM EST (link)Hi Erick;
Got an e-mail for Paypal ?
Dump truck or bellydump would do well….probably $40.00 a yard or so…17 yards to the end dump…
Snowe should not be allowed in the party. McCain either. And a few others.
The GOP.COM has a new page..
I went there, they wanted a picture and a one-liner as to why I am a Republican.
Gosh…maybe somebody can refine this a bit…it has to be short, but here’s what I got:
” I am a Republican because they are the lesser of two evils, even as dislocated from their base and gutless as they are.”
I mean, well, it hits the spot, it’s honest…but just doesn’t have that punchline zip to it…
Thanks again, keep up the good work!

I sent salt.
Rabban Tuesday, October 13th at 10:19PM EST (link)Sen, Snowe needs to know that people flat out do not want this bill or for that matter any of the dominate healthcare reform ideas the Democrats are putting forward. I do hope that I don’t get on any lists or lose my security clearance.
The largest possible carbon footprint you can have is opposition to nuclear power. Not that we should worry about “carbon footprints” in the first place.
It's outta here
mecat212 Tuesday, October 13th at 10:39PM EST (link)5# bag of salt on it’s way. Erick what a brilliant idea. If we are on a list so be it. Like I said above to leftylurker, after health care, we will all be on a list and it will not be secret.

Drop Snowe a line.

Common, Erick. SNOWE IS THE SNOW QUEEN MAVERICK OF THE GOP! And Rock Salt? Common. It only works for ghosts, not mavericks.

Slug

It’s true; I tried it on a big fat slug once. It dissolved right in its tracks.

These little tyrants
10ksnooker (Diary) Wednesday, October 14th at 9:30AM EST (link)Got to where they are when the 17th amendment was ratified. That essentially made Senators dictators for life. The States representation in the federal government was removed and the unfunded mandates flowed like rain.
States rights were done.
A similar situation is setting up in Florida when Crist the media darling, will get in and vote for Democrat socialism every time. You want to know why Florida is broke, ask Crist. Crist wants to be Florida’s Snowe.
Rubio is a stellar conservative … help him if you can.
Snowe voted YES for exposure
izoneguy (Diary) Wednesday, October 14th at 3:52PM EST (link)plain & simple….
She should have voted NO but that would not have got her any TV coverage. She is an older female looking for approval. Sure she might get some of the leftys and maybe in Maine that is what she needs to get re-elected? But once this craptastic piece of crap becomes law then she won’t be able to find any cover when the folks in Maine get screwed big time – as are the rest of Americans – and that includes all the leftys who were dying for National HealthCare coverage. Meanwhile, when Snowe comes down with some disease – it will be off to the Congressional hospital for her…..
The point cannot be made often enough: Modern liberalism, as embodied in the Obama presidency, is the defender of the status quo. And the status quo is a road to economic ruin. Political forces cannot redistribute the wealth that the economic system does not produce.
I hear Senator Snowe
baldego Wednesday, October 14th at 5:59PM EST (link)loves to make homemade ice cream. Are we sure we’re not helping her out here?
You're my hero ... again, Erick
Daezy Wednesday, October 14th at 9:58PM EST (link)After feeling so down yesterday, I finally sent her a scathing email. Enough of the polite ones — they obviously didn’t make a difference!
But your idea is brilliant, and I, too, will be sending her Rock Salt.
Thank you, my friend.
