Sens. Warner, Webb look like one-termers

This past election should serve as a shot-over-the-bow warning to Democratic Sens. Warner and Webb.

Should they continue to serve as both sycophants and yes-men to President Obama and the Democratic leadership on the outlandish and budget-busting issues of stimulus bills, bailouts, health care, and cap and trade, both will be limited to one term.

I have contacted both of them on the issue of health care. Sen. Warner never responded, and Sen. Webb's office responded that it was all about helping people who had lost their home mortgages, which tells me a bit about their level of understanding.

If they believe the "tea parties" are not relevant, then that is their folly. The Democrats in Washington are denying that this election had anything to do with what is going on in Congress now, yet most of us realize that it indeed had a large part to do with it. The numbers certainly indicate that.

So let them unabashedly and unabatedly continue supporting these programs, and they will not see another term.
