Reply #17: You are so right. It isn't that I'm deserting the Dems, its that they

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

Have deserted what they have stood for over the decades. I don't recognize them. It started with Bill Clinton. I was thrilled that he won, and then was in shock with a new conservatism that was apparent in the Democratic party that I never saw before.

They proved to me on Thursday, by not standing firm in unity (by voting Aye) to protect the rights of those who's votes didn't count. Apparently their own careers were more important to them, then the people that they have sworn to serve.

BTW...did anyone catch Biden questioning Gonazales about torture, but then tell him afterwards that he likes him and is going to vote for his confirmation? Confirm someone who thinks the Geneva Conventions quaint? Enough said for now........
