She is a democratic congresswoman from California.
Just watched her in an interview on PBS's Tavis Smiley. I've seen her before on other shows like Meet the Press, etc.. Everytime I listen to her speak, she really knows her stuff. (she is on the intelligence committee btw)
Republicans I know you won't like her so go ahead and just get your 2 pts. LOL

Thank you BeachBum ! I'm a California Republican... I respect Jane on her Intelligence stance... but not many others. Also... I don't think a member of the House has been elected in years !!
Honestly... I think Senator Feinstein would be better.
Middle of the road... sufficient experience... Stanford Grad.
I WOULD like to see the Republicans shift away from the "Church"... and BOTH parties FORCED away from Corporate American.
AT&T rebuilt, Oil Corporations, and everyone shifting jobs off-shore.
Maybe we can form a THIRD party in California ? Pro-Choice yet Anti-Illegal Immigration.... Environmental yet Business friendly... No frivolous law-suits yet finacial death to CEO's of negligent companies... Pro-Values yet recognizing that Gays, Lesbians are a GREAT tax source if married... AND Good-parenting isn't based on sexual preference ?
Again... thanks for my two points Ms Bum

The Truth About Jane Harman

Stripping Janey Down
Who’s backing Harman? Corporations and corporate reptiles. of which she’s proud as punch, smugly averring a fitness in being outed as the Democratic Party’s best Republican (a spot too many fellow Dems could equally qualify for...oh, why hello, Dianne!). But let’s look at her record, shall we? She:
* Voted for the Patriot Act (HR3162 - 10/24/01);
* Voted for Patriot Act Renewal (HR3199 - 7/21/05);
* Voted again for Patriot Act re-Renewal (HR4659 - 5/7/06);
* Voted to keep keep the Guantanamo Prisons (HR2601 - 7/20/05);
* Voted against Dennis Kucinich’s No Nukes in Space measure (HR2601- 7/20/05);
* Voted for Iraq War Authorization (HJ Res. 114 - 10/10/02), giving George Bush dictatorial powers literally against the Constitution (hmmm, now what should we call that? I’m sure there’s a legal term);
* Voted to oppose support for an International Criminal Court (HR4546 -5/10/02);
* Voted to oppose UN inspections/negotiations to avoid the Iraq War (HJ Res. 114 - 10/10/02);
* Voted to oppose a block to funding for new nuclear weapons (HR4546 - 5/9/02);
* Supported all kinds of votes to restrain and eradicate due process...
...and, well, I don’t have three weeks to list them all and neither to you, to read them. Still, wotta chalkboard, hm? She also adores almost all the free trade agreements ever crafted, instruments ruining this country and the world - they, after all, led by Clinton’s uber-agreement, GATT, began the mad offshoring stampede, amongst manifold other sins. So, with Janey-Come-Lately, you know exactly what you’re getting for your vote. What about Winograd?

I think that the description of her as a Republican's favorite Democrat would be rather appropriate. But, ........
I still want Pee-Wee Herman to be President!
Pee-Wee!
