Lieberman, the gift that just keeps on giving to Connecticut.

Hey, fine voters, especially any Democrats, are you having any buyer's remorse about electing Joementum to another term in the Senate?

Dems Could Pass Health Legislation by Simple Majority

Senate Democrats say they’re drawing up plans to pass healthcare reform legislation by simple majority, instead of the sixty votes needed to overcome a Republican filibuster. Under this scenario, Democrats would approve a public health insurance option through a process known as budget reconciliation. The procedure is used in cases where legislation can bear on federal spending and revenues. On Sunday, independent Senator Joe Lieberman signaled he won’t vote with Democrats on a healthcare bill. Appearing on CNN, Lieberman said a healthcare overhaul should be postponed until the economy improves.

Can we ever thank you enough?

Hispanic and thinking about voting Republican next time?

Sonia Sotomayor confirmed by the Senate as Associate Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court by a vote of 68 -31. Congratulations, it's about time!

From The Hill:

"The 31 Republicans voting against her nomination marks the second consecutive confirmation that fell mostly along partisan lines."

Of course they weren't doing it because she is Hispanic, they were punishing Obama for voting against Bush's nominees. Makes perfect sense, if you're a Republiecan.
