Chambliss voted to use military action-start of the Iraq war

Chambliss was criticized for remarks he made during a November 19, 2001 meeting with emergency responders in Valdosta, Georgia, where he said that they should "turn the sheriff loose and arrest every Muslim that crosses the state line".

Comments

Obviously a lot of Democrats don’t agree with his voting decisions or the majority of his policies for that matter. Was called ineffective and a sell out by multiple people.

Video

Very opinionated, and really opposes the Obama administration. In the video he talked about how the administration wants a universal health care proposal on its desk but it wont happen because too many people are in disagreement.
