[edit] Mentor?

Is it really fair to say Traficant was Tim Ryan's "mentor?" Ryan was an envelope-stuffing intern in Traficant's office for one year.

[edit] Bill being discussed

Before Tim launches into his tirade, he says he's "against the bill." Anyone know what bill he's talking about?

I know it was about something about the draft. It's clear in the speach that he was responding to something Bush or someone else said which denied any possibility of a draft, but as for what was the bill he was against? I have no idea Quixoto

[edit] "Charismatic"

Isn't using the word "charismatic" to discribe his draft speech a NPOV violation? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.83.229.131 (talk)

I don't think so. The speech is very firey. I think charismatic is an appropriate word. If you have suggestions for a better adjective, let me know. --Daysleeper47 01:56, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
