She should resign her seat."</FONT></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.nationalcenter.org/P21PR-Buckwheat-111507.html">Massie notes there has been a virtual media blackout regarding Representative Dartez's comment.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.nationalcenter.org/P21PR-Buckwheat-111507.html"><FONT size="-1" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">"Dog the Bounty Hunter is a basic cable TV star.
