Nice of John Kerry to show up for a vote. Too bad it wasn't to do something constructive

Might I add how disappointed I am at Hawaii's senators for voting with the forces of unreason, extremism, pathological partisanship and obstructionism? Though not from the state of Hawaii or a resident thereof, I have spent a lot of time there and love the generous and good hearted spirit of the people of that state. Hawaii's senators helping to further the forces of extremism in Democratic politics and in representing Hawaii does dihonor to the wonderful Aloha spirit of that state and Hawaii's great tradition of people working together.

Good to see Joe Lieberman aligned with the forces of reason AND
as usual, my 2 arm pit senators from MD performed in their usual manner of obstruction AND
so much for me ever saying anything good about Evan Bayh. What a useless waste of space.

So I read from the article that Roberts was approved by a MAJORITY OF DEMOCRATS (23-22) as well as a vast majority of Republicans?

Funny, if the Democrats had been able to pull off a feat like this, you would see blaring headlines about "overwhelming bipartisan support" and editorials gushing words like "mandate" and "direction" (as in surely this is the right one).

I'm waiting.

Still waiting...

Guess I better pack a lunch.
