37. The Votes Wouldn't Have Mattered
Yes, I am upset that my Junior Senator, Obama, again, failed to show for an important vote. He claims he didn't know the vote would be taking place on Thursday night...that's bullshit...everyone following the story knew the vote would either go on Thursday or Friday...isn't this what we're paying him to do?

No aboslution for the other candidates either...ironic for Dodd who came out against Mukasey first, but then when it came to cast the vote, he was MIA as well.

But then the "logic" was with Feinstein and Schummer caving in, that would be more than enough votes to confirm so the candidates didn't need to be there. I don't buy that crap...sorry. If you want to be President, please, do it on your own time, not when there's serious business going that you're being paid to do.
