	The Seattle Times: Local News: Offended by ads, Reichert walks out on forum

		Reichert was considered the early front-runner in the Republican race, enjoying widespread name recognition from his seven years as sheriff.
		Reichert yesterday said his 2001 endorsement was a matter of practical politics, because Sims was overwhelmingly favored to win the election.

	Irregular Times Rating and Contact Information for Representative David Reichert of WA (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Reichert has not yet cosponsored H.R., which would provide more information to the public about contacts between lobbyists and politicians, and which would slow down the revolving door of politics in which politicians move into cushy corporate jobs after they retire in exchange for favors.
		Reichert has not yet cosponsored H.R., a bill which would sensibly require the establishment of a backup paper record of votes for those times when electronic voting machines fail.
		Reichert has not yet cosponsored H.R., which would put an end to the practice of "extraordinary rendition," in which Bush Administration officials send people into the custody of certain nations, knowing full well (some would say intending) that they will be tortured there.

	Differing priorities create a conflicted Reichert
		Reichert, hoping to succeed retiring Rep. Jennifer Dunn, R-Bellevue, said eliminating the $7 billion Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) program is an unfortunate consequence of the post-9/11 war on terror.

	Cop on the run (Seattle Weekly)
		Reichert's status has become near-celebrity to law-and-order types in wake of his mayoral critiques and the seemingly flawless performance of his anti-riot troops—who, he notes with some apparent irritation, had once been relegated to the WTO bench.
		Reichert's department insists the window-knocking pepper spray complaint is its only formal case of WTO misconduct, suggesting most of the several hundred county officers performed dutifully in the face of the protesters—who sometimes baited and spat upon them and threw objects.
		Reichert was cleared of coercion and cover-up charges by an internal probe, but when the issue was raised anew at his confirmation hearing in 1997, he shed real tears and denied wrongdoing in front of the county council.

	On The Road To 2008: Reichert's Voting Record On The Wrong Track
		It has become a favorite past-time of some wingnuts to suggest, over and over, that Dave Reichert is a moderate, and as such he will appeal to independent and moderate voters in November.
		Reichert voted for the bill.) The League of Women Voters explain why they believe this bill is a sham.
		Don't think of Reichert as a mere casualty when that happens, because he is a real part of the problem that needs to be dealt with through sweeping changes in the nature of our congressional leadership.

		In particular, the Democrats have criticized Reichert's votes against expanding federal support of embryonic stem cell research and against extending military health insurance to all members of the National Guard and Reserves and their families, not just those called up for active duty.

	On The Road To 2008: Bush, Rove and Reichert will crush you! Burner will fight for you!
		Despite all this Reichert is trying to sell himself to voters as a moderate and an independent thinker, yet he has never been known as much of a thinker, let alone an independent one.
		You may say that the blind support for Bush by Dave Reichert and his fellow GOP congressmen and congresswomen is hardly anything new, and that Democratic support for Clinton and Republican support for George H. Bush was equally high.
		Dave Reichert may not stir up emotions like Tom DeLay, Bill Frist or even Joe Lieberman, but his voting record is every bit as bad as DeLay's was, and his seat is every bit as important if Democrats are to win a majority in November.

		As a freshman congressman, Reichert has drawn attention for key votes that broke ranks with the Bush administration and for landing the chairmanship of the Homeland Security Subcommittee last fall.
		Reichert has raised more than $1.3 million toward his re-election bid through the first quarter of the year, and has more than $720,000 in the bank.
		Coupled with his fame and fund-raising prowess is Reichert's views: While voting often with the leadership, he's gone against them on such high-profile issues as the Terri Schiavo vote.

	Dogfight in a GOP Stronghold (washingtonpost.com)
		A Republican, Reichert is running in a suburban House district -- east of Seattle and home to high-tech moguls such as Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates and Amazon.com founder Jeff Bezos -- that has always been represented by a Republican.
		Local analysts say Reichert may be coming across as too conservative for a highly educated, increasingly prosperous district that has drifted Democratic in recent years.
		Fliers that the Republican committee recently mailed to voters in the 8th District include a devilish image of Ross that is framed in red and a Soviet-era propaganda photo of a military officer.

		She pretty much is getting a pass, eventhough, the PI exposed her as a Reichert lap dog who went after deputies who tried to denounce corruption and took the side of deputies who were abusing their wives.
		Rahr is as lousy an administrator as Reichert, and if the PI had not exposed her department, she would have let that rotten department be.

	On The Road To 2008: Reichert Can't Hide From His Voting Record
		Reichert is a slime job and cares about as much about families in King County as, say, Maureen Dowd.
		Then there are those that believe that Reichert's so-called moderate streak is something to crow about, such as recently when Stefan Sharkansky at SP wrote about his analysis of the roll call data from the 2005 and 2006 109th Congressional record.
		Hard core right wingers reacted with glee that Reichert in fact voted 89% of the time with the majority position among Republicans on these key votes, however it certainly puts to rest any suggestion that Reichert is moderate, and the "independent" voter probably looks at this type of voting record with considerable concern.

		It took me a couple of years, but I've finally decided that the political presence of Dave Reichert in Washington State is essentially an illusion that floats and shimmers under a glorious head of hair.
		Dave's part of the "seamless web" of the GOP, the Bush family and the energy industry.
		Last October, Alice Mundy nailed Reichert in the most beautiful way in a Seattle Times piece on the green pickle Reichert finds himself in, the conflict between his role as a loyal trooper in the Republican Party and his stated goals of protecting the natural environment.

		It's a smart storyline for Reichert to cultivate, given that he represents the 8th congressional district, which covers the eastern portions of King and Pierce Counties and is in political flux, becoming more liberal as cities such as Bellevue and Redmond grow in influence.
		Reichert's vote agaist Congressional interference with Terry Schiavo's death does come up frequently when Reichert's image-makers talk about how he's not marching in lockstep with his leaders.
		Reichert's chief of staff, Mike Shields, says the Democrats, feeling jitters about Reichert's success, are desperately taking votes out of context in order to try to make Reichert fit the bad-guy Republican cliché, and that it won't work.
