Senator John Cornyn is as lousy a senator as Sen. Jim Bunning is!

Think Progress has a short but sweet post up about how Sen. John Cornyn of Texas completely supported Bunning’s obstruction to allow unemployment benefits for Americans who after a year and a half still can’t find a job, but is now trying to backtrack himself when he found his skirt up over his shoulders and [...]

The Senate’s health care bill has passed!

Poor Jane Hamsher of FireDogLake. It appears dropping your draws for the right wingers HERE and HERE isn’t working! But hey, does Jane care? Nope. She’s looking forward to being the guest of honor in the right winger’s campaign videos next year for a republican win!
Asshole.
The Senate’s health care bill passed 60-39. John McCain was [...]

Senator Sheldon Whitehouse is correct about the GOP

The GOP is nothing but a right wing cult group made up of birthers, the KKK, and other white supremacists. It doesn’t matter what any bill on the floor of the Senate is about, this Cult is well represented in the Senate and these republican Senators will continue to vote “NO!” on behalf of these [...]

Senator Al Franken is the voice of reason in the health care reform debate

Now that Sen. Ted Kennedy is no longer with us to guide us through the process of health care reform and to be the strong voice that we need, we have Sen. Al Franken to take his place! Of course, we progressive liberals did have the chance in getting Caroline Kennedy in the Senate after [...]

Exposed: Obama speech disrupter received $240,000 from healthcare industry; Largest industry donor
Me thinks the you lie outburst was connected to the payola he received from health care lobbyists more than the delusions he is under about the claim he made which is [...]

Franken is finally officially declared the winner,

Al franken was declared the winner by the Supreme Court of Minnesota,
The Minnesota Supreme Court has handed down its much-expected ruling in the heavily-litigated Minnesota Senate race from 2008 — and it’s a unanimous one — deciding against Republican former Sen. Norm Coleman’s appeal of his defeat in the election trial and affirming the lower [...]

Governor Sebelius has been confirmed!

Wow, that didn’t take long. I guess knowing your party is full of obstructionists who hate America was enough for the republicans to vote Governor Sebelius in as HHS Secretary to prove they don’t! Only a few republicans voted her in. Bond, Collins, Gregg, Lugar, Roberts, Snowe, Specter, and Voinovich were the only republicans voting [...]

Sen. Susan Collins took out pandemic flu funding out of Obama’s stimulus bill

Isn’t it nice to know that the republicans are still the ones we turn to to think ahead and prepare? Not. Spit. Sen. Susan Collins along with her anti-American cohorts decided a few months ago to take out the funding in the stimulus bill for combating a pandemic flu should it hit America in the [...]

Senate republicans join hands to NOT FUND AMERICA IN 2010

Sen. Susan Collins of Maine once said that she voted for Obama’s economic stimulus bill after having drinks with him at the White House…

Apparently, when Collins is sober….she votes against Americans! Yep. Anyway..
You just knew it was going to happen. The republicans for years/decades were fine with blowing American taxpayer money on anything they wanted. [...]

Sen. Judd Gregg resigned as the nominee for Commerce Secretary position because of earmarks!

Well, that didn’t take long. I honestly gave Sen. Judd Gregg the benefit of the doubt when he resigned as a nominee for President’s Obama Commerce Secretary position. During his press conference he appeared to be genuinely upset for having to resign and I figured he had been hounded by the American Taliban (the GOP) [...]

QUOTE OF THE DAY:

GLENN BECK AT CPAC 2010: ‘Hello, my name is the Republican Party, and I’ve got a problem. I’m addicted to spending and big government…I’m addicted to spending and I just don’t want to spend today.’ (CLICK HERE FOR LINK TO QUOTE)

"If by a “Liberal” they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people — their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties — someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a “Liberal,” then I’m proud to say I’m a “Liberal.” ~ John F. Kennedy, 1960
