Your comments are completely unrelated to the questions I directed at
Strickland. Thanks for trying, though.

So, you weren't able to go to google and type in the words "republicans war
funding afghanistan 2010".

That's interesting.

Actually they very directly answered his questions. Cliff is casting
aspersions on the Republicans for against a bill for which very little
information was given. And as a matter of principle i would vote against any
bill that had unrelated items in it, no matter what sweet sounding title the
decievers plastered on it.

Strickland said he only wanted information about how the vote went. That
does not involve opinions. It involves numbers. Some people voted yes, some
people voted no. The information is easily available from reliable sources
which are beyond reproach.
