being invited to address the President's Deficit Commission, instead of a unified outrage over it was defended here by some people. Which was odd because of them were the same people who used Jane Hamsher's singing a petition he signed to slam her for being in any way associated with this 'Right Wing Moron'.

So you are correct, based on past reactions to Norquist at a Dem appointed Commission, I would be willing to bet on it.

Or we could at least pretend to get democrats. Or get pretend democrats. That seems more likely for most positions.
