Schumer, Feinstein Announce Support for Mukasey
Sens. Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.) and Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) announced this afternoon that they will vote in favor of confirming Michael B. Mukasey as attorney general, effectively ending a growing revolt by fellow Democrats that had threatened Mukasey's confirmation.OK, I'm not happy but:
By announcing their support, the two Democrats virtually guarantee that Mukasey, with support from the nine Republicans, will be narrowly approved by the Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday.
I'm with you. There were more than enough reasons long ago for sane and ethical people to throw up their hands and go live in the woods, but the briefest thoughts of Cheney, W, and nearly all of the GOP candidates continue to inspire us to fight. It is tiring though. Sheesh.
ReplyDeleteI was wondering if you might have a reaction to this. Even the Oregonian is against "torture" and Mukasey. I sure would be disappointed in Schumer and Feinstein.
ReplyDeleteAs a matter of fact, "Feinstein says she's still troubled by Mukasey's evasive answers..." and it goes without saying that there are many who are troubled by Sen. Clinton's evasive answers, in the latest debate.
BTW, how will Clinton vote on Mukasey?
Glad she's in your party!
