Just want to urge everyone again to check your senators' and representatives votes on the Military Commissions Act before casting your ballots.

Someone said to me yesterday (about US Rep. Salazar--Dem. Colorado--voting Aye), "You're right; it was wrong. But I'm not a single-issue voter." To me, however, this single issue undermines our country so seriously that anything else a candidate might say or do doesn't matter. These people voted for torture, turning back the history of our country to attack the principles on which it was founded. It's a travesty that any of them should hold public office after doing so.
