I have to admit, this made my day!
Watching the meltdown over on DailyKox (among others) over Barack not voting against FISA is just delightful! It is hilarious to watch the younglings and over-agers who populate the Progressive blogosphere finally realize what the rest of us figured out months ago: Barack stands for nothing except Barack!
I know this has gotten a lot of blogger attention, so I'm not going to beat a dead horse. But one point has really annoyed me. The MSM has not covered this one iota (at least not that I've seen).
I guess that isn't really surprising, given that they are already in the tank so heavily for Barack. After all, what would they say? That he showed no leadership what so ever? That he didn't even bother showing up for one of the most important issues in the Senate this season? That he is trying to claim a "not voting" (because of absence) for cloture is really voting against...without having to actually vote against? That he is really just another craven pol? That he stands for nothing?
That he may not be the messiah after all???
But the MSM is just keeping with it's usual method of not criticizing Barack directly. He still can do no wrong in their eyes. So when he does something that completely betrays the very people who over-threw Hillary for his-Saint-ness, they have no real choice but to remain silent.
Too much fun!
Have a nice night! The Dog.
