Democratic Senators who believe in rewarding incompetence (and the ones who don't)
Posted by Jill | 1:51 PM

The following Democratic Senators decided today that the way to deal with someone as utterly incompetent as Condoleeza Rice is to promote her to a higher position:

Salazar (CO)
Lieberman(CT) [he'd vote 3 times Yes if he could]
Biden(DE) [right off the bat]
Dodd(CT)
Feingold (WI)
Clinton(NY)
Feinstein (CA)
Corazine (NJ)
Wyden (OR)
Obama(IL)

Many of these were expected, including Hillary (DLC) Clinton (another reason not to support her on 2008), but I'm appalled at Jon Corzine, who ought to know better, and I'm even MORE appalled at Barack Obama, who so far has shown us nothing but a willingness to be led around by the nose.

Here are the guys you should thank:

Levin(MI)
Dayton(MN)
Kennedy(MA)
Bayh(IN)
Boxer(CA)
Byrd(WV) - a most inspiring, eloquent and emphatic NO!
Kerry (MA)
Durbin(IL)
Reed(RI)
Jeffords (IND-VT)
Harkin (IA)
Akaka (HI)
Lautenberg (NJ)


Of course the wingnuts will go back 40 years to Robert Byrd's long-since renounced and regretted KKK membership), but this tells you where the nads are in the Senate.
