Of course they are. Remember this you cowardly SOB’s in the GOP who voted for Sotomayor and Kagen because “the President should get his pick.”
The Republican Party needs to go the way of the Whigs.

Past actions are no guarantee of future results. As the media’s influence is negated the GOP’s energy will rise as well. Its terror about the media has determined much of the GOP fecklessness.
