Mental Midgets Acting Like A Bunch Of 3 Year Olds

So the Republican Senators have decided to scream, pout, and take their ball and go home because heath care reform passed.

I can't understand why anybody would admire let alone vote for such immature assholes.

Stay Classy Miguel Miranda.

Greg Sargent reported earlier today that former hacker in the "Memogate" scandal, Miguel Miranda, is leading an effort to pressure Republican Senators to attack Supreme Court nominee Judge Sonia Sotomayor. Now Greg is reporting that Miranda has made a racist statement about black people.

Today, Miranda did a conference call with conservative bloggers organized by the Heritage foundation, where he discussed Sotomayor. Asked how Republicans could oppose her while avoiding charges of racism, Miranda said they had to wage substantive attacks. Then he segued into a discussion of the views of Hispanics on issues, saying:

“By the way, Hispanic polls, Hispanic surveys, indicate that Hispanics think just like everyone else. We’re not like African Americans. We think just like everybody else.”

I would hope that Republican Senators will be questioned about Miranda's statement IMMEDIATELY and asked if they will continue to take his calls about Judge Sotomayor. Its time to pull the veil off of this bullshit and confront the racism that still exists in this country. And ain't no time like the present.

Bitchassness

Diddy was right, bitchassness is a disease and it can spread like wildfire if left unchecked. One has to look no further than the Senate Democratic Caucus where seems to be spreading like the hanta virus. Exhibit A Senator Patrick Leahy

The Committee has not yet received the names of other designees for high-ranking Department of Justice officials that we had anticipated and more time is now available to the Judiciary Committee. Therefore, to accommodate the Republicans on the Judiciary Committee, at their request we are delaying the hearing, again, until January 15. The Assistant Republican Leader said last year that ‘attorney general nominees have been confirmed, on average, in approximately three weeks.’

Nonetheless, in order to accommodate the Republicans members, I am rescheduling the hearing on Mr. Holder for twice that long, until more than six weeks after his official designation.It is disappointing to me that they are insisting that we delay at a time when the nation needs its top law enforcement officer and national security team in place and working. I trust that with this additional time to prepare, they will cooperate in proceeding promptly to Committee and Senate consideration of the historic Holder nomination as Democrats did for President Bush.

And to think I was calling for Leahy to replace Harry Reid as Senate Majority Leader just a few days ago. Of course he had me fooled with his fire breathing dragon act.


I guess this cartoon sums it up.
