co-burn is a member of the xtain taliban that convenes their coven meetings in the bowels of their "c" street "church"

any member of the "c" street cabal is NO supporter or member of the american people

Senator Courn has hit it on the head. But:

Was it not Coburn trying to save his senator friend from Nevada from resigning the Senate after a sexual escapade with his secretary came to light?

Now he says (to the effect) that, "Half the senators running for office should be replaced at each election to change the direction of the country".

What double talk! ... But its the "Washington Disease."

Why do they always wait until they retire to tell it like it is?

"Both parties" always seems to come out of the mouths of the one party causing 90% of the problem.

Coburn...lol...you should talk. Hypocrisy at its finest. Not too long ago Coburn was in danger of being charged as an accessory to Ensign's pay-off scandal that led him to resign from the Senate…K-street for instance…hello pot meet kettle.

This dude has been in Washington for the better part of the past 15 years. Frankly, he is part of the problem, not part of the solution. And I will add, a big part of the problem.

So I guess he was just an innocent bystander in the GOP trying to take down this country, again.

What is it with these congressmen that can't speak the truth unless they are off the clock?

[Grunty1]

03:45 PM on 04/17/2012

He's still projecting enough to prevent it from being called "truth"

Come on...he writes a book to air his concerns and complaints? He's a Senator and should take every opportunity on the senate floor to address these issues.

Coburn, being the bible beating hypocrit he is, is always quick to judge others for the same behaviors he himself champions. What a phoney Bafoon he is...
