tweety gives judd gregg a 'hardball award' for fucking over President Obama
matthews thinks that gregg is a true man for stepping down from the administration

my question chris, 'why the fuck did he agree to it, not only that, why did he lobby for it?'

no mr matthews, he's just another republican bowing to the the knuckledraggers

1. I agree, Spanone,
and issuing a press release before telling the president was very, very bad form.

5. Tweety's going to have a lot of egg on his face
if Gregg dropped out because of possible ties to Jack Abramoff. We can only hope!

9. Yeah, me thinks it's time for
tweety to get some comeuppance. Especially for the "Orangeman" crap he was going on about the other night.

15. quote from NPR story --
-------------------------
"In a statement, Gibbs said that Gregg had "reached out to the president and offered his name for secretary of commerce. He was very clear throughout the interviewing process that despite past disagreements about policies, he would support, embrace, and move forward with the president's agenda."

13. No need to apologize. It's a dirty job & somebody has to do it. I was just expressing myself.

12. I keep wondering -- is Faux "News" relentlessly castigating Gregg as a "Flip-Flopper?"
Democrats were hammered with that for less egregious behavior.

When Gregg went after the job, he should have checked first to see if Obama might have something more than "Cut Taxes For The Rich" on his agenda.

Can't believe Gregg did this. I hope Fox is being hard on him, but I bet they're not (haven't had a TV for many years).
