Hanoi Jane[edit]

I will be going to the VA hospital in Fayettvill,Ar. to let every one there know about Prea. Oboma's plan to honer Jane Fonda as one of the 100 Woman thing. I don,t care what it is called.
People should Googl Hanoi Jane and reed what is said. She is a trator and a slao in the face to all of us that shed blood there. If she was dronning I would PEE in the water.

Current activity[edit]

What is Ms. Lincoln doing after leaving office? I have heard one thing that she is doing is working as a lobbyist for a group that opposes EPA regulations and other conservative ideas. Jtyroler (talk) 19:26, 2 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

She started a lobbying firm: http://thehill.com/business-a-lobbying/311113-ex-sen-blanche-lincoln-opening-her-own-k-street-firm — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:144:103:C70:AC4E:EE96:B9DA:DA39 (talk) 01:07, 8 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

What rampant ideologue wrote this?[edit]

Please explain how it is not a grossly immoral LIE to refer to her missing a vote (due to a dental appointment) as casting a "No" vote. Where does it say in the Senate Rules that an abstention or simply not voting is the same as voting "No"? How do you sleep at night? I have no source for this but your own words. One sentence says she missed the vote. The next sentence says it was the third instance of her voting against ... . The two sentences contradict each other. I ask you, then, which of them is the one that is the lie?72.204.0.229 (talk) 23:27, 22 December 2012 (UTC)Christopher Lawrence Simpson[reply]

Chill out.

The section following the dental appointment was unsourced. I've removed it. If anyone would like to add commentary on the issue -- neutrally worded and reliably sourced -- have at it.

Additionally the wording had it that she "claims" she would have voted for the repeal. This is weaselly. I've made it a more neutral "said". - SummerPhD (talk) 00:40, 23 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
