I'm Saxby Chambliss, and I bet you want to know who I'm sticking up for in Washington!
Unfortunately, I'm busy talking to some business lobbyists about how I can give them your money. So if you want to learn about my voting record, you'll just have to read this website.

President Bush and I have been good friends ever since he helped me beat that other Vietnam Veteran! It's funny how us guys who didn't go to Vietnam can beat guys who did.
And if you want to see the ad I used to beat Max Cleland in 2002, you can see it here! I could make him seem unpatriotic for opposing Bush, even though he'd lost three limbs in Vietnam. |

Who gets help from Senator Chambliss?
Wall Street?
|
Yes!
Saxby Chambliss wanted to privatize Social Security. Then these guys could take big fees out of your Social Security account and buy more champagne! They'll get their fees even if they invest your Social Security money in subprime mortgage bonds and Lehman Brothers. But at least the $700 billion Wall Street bailout Saxby supported might give you some of your money back.
Some people don't like having Social Security money in the stock market because it's risky. They're probably going to be slacking off and retiring when they're old instead of working hard! |
Kids?

|
No!
Saxby is among just 31 Senators who voted against health care for poor kids, saying "You and I and every other voter would eventually pay for that program." Who wants to spend money on a bunch of sick little kids when you can give it to big Wall Street guys? The kids would probably blow it on bubble gum anyway.
Saxby Chambliss knows that he's in Washington to help Big Business, not little children. |
The Insurance Industry?
|
Yes!
What would you do if somebody proposed a plan that gave all Georgians health care and lowered the state's health care costs by $716 million a year? Would you support it?
Or would you find the insurance company executive who was against it because we already have "a very good system" and make him your Chief of Staff? That's what Saxby did!
|
Rural families?

|
No!
Democrats tried to fund rural hospitals and health care providers by reducing tax cuts for the richest Americans. Saxby voted against that because he knew that tax cuts for the rich are more important than health care for people in rural Georgia.
If you live in rural Georgia and you're sick, you made a big mistake! You should have lived somewhere else, or not gotten sick. Or even better, you should've become an insurance executive, and then Saxby would actually want to help you. |
George W. Bush?

|
Yes!
George Bush helped Saxby raise money back in 2002. Since Saxby did what Bush wanted, Bush is helping out again this election! It's not like they have any Vietnam War stories to share -- neither of them went. Some say that explains their special bond.
Whether it's supporting the same version of Social Security privatization that Bush wanted, keeping our troops in Iraq indefinitely, or giving away money to Big Oil, Saxby has been there when Bush and the Republican leaders needed him -- according to the Washington Post, 91.8% of the time.
|
Katrina Victims?
|
No!
Saxby Chambliss voted against Disaster Relief Medicaid for Hurricane Katrina victims. He knew that Katrina victims didn't need Medicaid to coddle them.
All Katrina victims need is good old-fashioned American self-reliance! And the ability to swim. But Medicaid doesn't give swimming lessons, so really there isn't any point in giving them something called 'Disaster Relief Medicaid'. |
Big Oil?

|
Yes!
It's hard being an oil company, with all that money you have to haul back from Georgia to your headquarters. Saxby makes sure that oil companies get free money mailed directly to their headquarters as well! When Democrats tried to pass a bill that would eliminate $21 billion in subsidies for oil companies, Saxby voted to filibuster it.
And don't think that's the only time Saxby has been there for Big Oil -- he's always ready to help! |
The Atmosphere?
 |
No!
Did you know that the atmosphere was in Iraq when Saddam was running the country? Did you know that the atmosphere was there when Osama Bin Laden was planning the 9/11 attacks? It was! In fact, if not for the atmosphere, Osama would be dead today.
That's why nobody should criticize Saxby for voting against renewable energy that wouldn't pollute the atmosphere. If the atmosphere thinks it can help terrorists, Saxby Chambliss has news for it! You can always count on him to stick it to the atmosphere. |
Big Corporations?

|
Yes!
Saxby's history of supporting Big Business goes back to his House days, when he voted for a bill partly written by Enron lobbyists. This bill kept the government from regulating the trades that caused AIG to blow up and deepened the financial crisis today.
Sure, it'd be nice if the economy didn't collapse. But isn't it more fun when Wall Street gets to do whatever it wants? |
College Students?
|
No!
Everybody loves fast food! And that's why it's important that we don't help college students by giving them loans. Saxby Chambliss understands that lots of students are trying to go to college so they can get good jobs. They don't want to work at McDonald's for the rest of their lives. If they get their way, who's going to take our orders for supersize Big Mac meals?
Saxby has a proud record of making sure our future fast food workers don't escape to college. He's voted against student loans again and again. He was even the deciding vote to increase interest rates, impose additional fees, and make it harder for students to qualify for loans! | |
