Difi,Reid,Rockefeller...all as bad as LIEberman..still a great deal of house cleaning left to do..love the title. Definitely screw all DINO scum..
Posted by headxray at January 6, 2009 08:15 PMAmen. I'd like to see Feinstein get a Dem challenger next time around. It's a few years off, but she really deserves to go. CA is a true-blue state, and she has no excuses.
Ditto re Burris too. Not only is it wrong not to seat him, it's a story that Dems don't need in the news every day. It's a political loser.
Posted by JJF at January 6, 2009 09:07 PMFeinstein really needs to retire. And we don't mean retire to the Governors Mansion in California either.
Rockefeller is too damn stupid to be on the intelligence committee, period.
And Harry Reid is demonstrating, yet again, the cluelessness of his tenure as Majority Leader.
Last time I looked, Blago hadn't been convicted of anything. Yet Reid and the Democrats want to treat him as convicted, which isn't how we're supposed to do things in this country. That's how the media and the gop operate, that's how we get the screaming blather of Nancy Grace or Lou Dobbs, and don't think the gop ain't loving how easily they can get Reid to circle up the firing squad.
He's pathetic, just pathetic, and has been almost from the get go. He's like an American Tourist who just learned to play chess going to Moscow and hanging out in some park and trying to play chess with some of those old timers that have spent their lives playing chess. Not that republicans are smart, mind you, their idiots whose belief system revolves around Football Jocks and Cheerleaders, but you get my drift.
Posted by Duckman GR at January 6, 2009 10:06 PMHey Duckman, we agree on Leon, just for different reasons. I don't feel he changes anything within the CIA. He covers a President Obama's back, nothing wrong with doing just that. The intel people do the same job they are doing. He'll stay out of their way. Masterful pick this is for it's simplicity. Difi and all, oops, Biden and now Obama get to apologize for that mistake, but that's Okay too. It makes a point
Another in a line of great picks for soon to be President Obama! (B version 3.0)
And Burris will be seated soon enough, Reid will be gone in 2010 when Burris is unable to defend his seat.
Any takers on Holder and the 6th Amendment?
Posted by peter at January 7, 2009 04:04 AMAbsolutely right about DiFi and Rockerfeller, and absolutely right about Burris. Now if we can just rid ourselves of Reid as Majority Leader and put someone with real leadership qualifications in that post--things like insight, foresight, and principle.
Oh, I forgot. We are talking about politicians, aren't we?
Posted by candideinnc at January 7, 2009 04:49 AMwhen will the senate GROW UP and stop playing Monkey in the middle
I agree on both counts, Deacon. Dems really need to get a better grasp of optics, and learn how to work the refs a little better if they're going to get anything done. It sucks, but dang, if the morons on the right can play the game, it can't be all that hard!
Posted by iamcoyote at January 7, 2009 05:41 AMagree with everything you say here DB.
Posted by John B. at January 7, 2009 06:16 AMhey pppetie keep showing that PPP v29.1 is as deluded and ignorant as all the previous versions....yer doin' a heck of a job pants pisser....
Posted by headxray at January 7, 2009 09:12 AMThanks for this. DiFi and Jello are worse than Liberman in my opinion. At least he comes out and says what he thinks no matter how odious. These two back stabbers are the enemies of liberals and progressives.
Posted by Ron at January 7, 2009 11:07 AMDeacon, total agreement on all opinions and with your reasoning.
The Democrats need to stop getting their knickers in a wad and creating issues that are totally avoidable (like the Burris issue and poor Ms. Feinstein's lil ego was hurt..just freakin grow up already and get on with the business of governing..you know the business in which they're paid) The nation and it's citizens are struggling mightily and they're focusing on intraparty squabbling with egos and such,instead of getting on with the business of freakin helping those who they represent or solving the issues we face.
Honestly with all the issues that our country is facing right now that are far far more important than some bruised egos and some appointment (fully within the law and legal I might add) made by some dumbass two bit governor.
Democrats Please stop making mountains out of molehills and start fixing the far more important and massive problems you've stood by and watched or helped to create.
Posted by emal at January 7, 2009 01:15 PMCome Rocky and Feinstein
Please heed the call
Dont stand in the doorway
Dont block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
Theres a battle outside
And it is ragin.
Itll soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin.
PS, your oversight sucked.
We agree on nothing, you two bit POS.
