Democratic senators being interviewed about the GOP's filibuster of DADT. I was just too damn pissed to listen to them.

How many times do they expect us to listen to their damned WHINING about how those mean old Republicans went and filibustered their legislation AGAIN! They are about as impressive as Shirley Temple in one of her childhood films, stamping their little feet and pouting.

GROW A DAMN PAIR! RENT A DAMN PAIR! Do what you need to do but, D-A-M-N--- STOP THIS NAMBY-PAMBY ASS KISSING AND ---LEAD!!!

How can you ask us to put our asses on the line AGAIN to try to maintain a majority when you don't use the one you have!!

Is there ANY reason to think you will show any more spine on the Bush tax cut extension issue?

Those who bother to read my posts know I am encouraging everyone to "bend over backwards" to stay united for these midterms and do whatever they can to elect Democrats. But, damn, some of you pink-tutu assholes are sure making it a hard sell!

Good. Damn. Night. May tomorrow be a better day.

6. 96%, 0% of Republicans did.
So, let's blame the Democrats.

:crazy:

8. Hello---? And just what good did that do? As long as we are satisfied with
being bullied by the minority, they will be happy to continue handing us our ass.

5. Every Democrat in the Senate voted for it except Traitor Blanche
and Mark Pryor, two "Dems" from Arkansas who will not have jobs in two election cycles.

Barbara Boxer and Al Franken chewed them out on the Senate floor.

The fact that we even had this vote at ALL is a fucking miracle considering how spineless Harry Reid is.

13. It really is a sad day when Joe Lieberman is backing the repeal
and I have to agree with him. Why the Dems put all of their hope in Snowe and Collings is beyond me.

I do hope Reid wins his election but I want a new Speaker of the House. Reid does not have the backbone to stand toe to toe to the other side or to his own side.
