So. The Senate Democrats will again provide more evidence they have no spine and no moral center.

[ConsAreLiars]

And Joe the Liarman will be rewarded for being a tool for the fascists, because compromising and ducking is always better than standing up for anything.

Have they no shame? Apparently not.

Do they stand for anything? Apparently not.

When they show they are totally devoid of any standards at all, will the Cons continue to push them around and treat them like useless wimps. Bet on it.

(edit - slight change in wording)

1. Its all about politics

They need all the votes they can get to pass some of the more ambitious plans Obama outlined. I care less if its Joe the ConMan giving us a vote than Howard Dean. If its a vote towards universal health care, budgeting $150 billion towards alternative energy sources, or getting our troops out of an illegal war-- it all counts the same to me.

that being said, the guy is the scum of the earth and I hope he gets voted out when hes up for re-election.

6. Don't panic...

He'll be on an extremely short leash. I think if we can consistantly peel off Republicans for a few crucial votes, Joementum will come in to his office one sunny morn to find the locks changed.

2. people who stand for nothing will fall for anything..congressional dems been doing that for years nt

3. msongs nailed it. More disgusting cowardice from our party. I'm starting to be sick.

4. The bastards! What fucking assholes!

But then of course, we always knew they were. Don't get me wrong. I'm not excusing Joe or the DINOs supporting him. If it were up to me, Joe would be tarred and feathered and run out of town on a rail followed closely by all those who said "Aww, Joe's not such a bad guy." The hell he isn't! I'd castrate the little bastard and his supporters too. It's just that none of this, I'm sorry to say, surprises me.

On edit: K&R!

5. We all watched their approval ratings

sink like a stone , lower then even Bush , after 2006.
I hold very little hope they will suddenly grow spines.

7. what to do with joey

looks like Sen. obama left just in time to miss the vote. cause there's only one president at a time in merica to bad he couldn't have stayed around an shown what change is going to be like or is it going to just be more of the same now that he's made it ?

8. I think to most politicians, "change" means

making slight adjustments to the equalizer, but playing the same crappy music.
