Wednesday morning Mr. Bush was trying to act all humble and respectful. I'm looking forward to working with Ms. Pelosi and the Democrats... yada, yada, yada... Bipartisanship, yada, yada, yada.
Then he has the freakin' gaul to ask the current Republican House and Senate to pass controversial items. Kudos to Republican Sen. Lincoln Chafee for standing his ground. We'll gladly welcome him into our fold! We take the ones the Republicans don't want! Remember Jeffords?
And who said Leiberman was out for himself: Lieberman: Call me a Democrat.
Of course he'll head the chairman of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. And he retains his senoirity if he comes back as a Democract. But it's still a selfless act... right!
Now, I have no problem in giving him these concession if it keeps him voting Democratic on most issues. But lets not pretend he's doing it out of the goodness of his heart. Jeffords felt slighted by the way he was treated by Bush and that's why he turned independent. Lets keep Lieberman close.
