"Yackity Sax" is the Dems new theme song. I swear it's in my head every time I read some new Kerry/Hillary/Feinstein/Shehan/etc. statement or strategy.

I been searching here for years, besides me, some FReepers and Jim Gilchrist....that's about it. But hey, an informal survey might show that we'd vote for FineSwine over Moonbat, if forced to choose.

Who knew Feinstein was such a coward?

She will soon be thrown to the dogs. She's left her anti-war pity party to play with politicians and now she will be eaten by her own.

Seriously, you have seen where she wants the US to create a Department of Peace and a Department of History-of which she would be its first secretary? She is a raving lunatic. I think the Democrats are now stuck with the proverbial "crazy uncle" they let move in but are just now relegating him to the basement.

The real question is why does Feinstein feels so insecure as Senator that she would even pay any attention to Sheehan's threat? I think Feinstein wanted to filabuster all along and Sheehan is just her justification. I lived in California for 16 years and the people of CA elect these know-nothings because they are part of the make believe world that is California.

Yep, she announced it out during one of those Berkley love-fests with Sean Penn in attendance. Crazy stuff.
