Featured Members of Congress
On November 23, 2007 Bob Corker was featured on the homepage of OpenCongress:
Speaking at a luncheon at the Chattanoogan hotel on Tuesday, Bob Corker (R-TN) surprised the audience with remarks critical of the Bush administration's handling of the Iraq war. "I was in the White House a number of times to talk about the issue [of Iraq], and I may rankle some in the room saying this, but I was very underwhelmed with what discussions took place at the White House," Corker, who has consistently voted in favor of Bush's war policies, said.

Those who vote for unconstitutional warrentless wiretaps and vote to protect the criminals that violate our privacy are not worthy of the position they hold. It's impossible to justify undermining the very essence of our constitution in order to protect it. Another sell out.
