Unfortunately, this is shaping up to be a banner week for potential Dem Weenie Award winners:
* The Senate confirms federal judge Michael Chertoff to succeed Tom Ridge as Homeland Security Secretary by a 98-0 vote, despite concerns regarding his role in the treatment of terror suspects at the US detention camp in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
* Dems earn Brownie points by holding a hearing into Iraq contracts, then blow it by not showing up.
* Eighteen Senate Dems join the unanimous Senate Republicans in voting to restrict the right to file class action lawsuits.
A reminder: Nominations are still open for this week's Dem Weenie and Boxer Badge of Courage awards. Our first weekly winners were announced here.

ReplyDeleteThanks for the suggestion. I'd write a poem about this, but writing poems is hard work.
