Justice Parties USA

Here’s the 22 Democrats who just minutes ago voted to confirm John Roberts Jr. to be the next Chief Justice on the United States Supreme Court:

Max Baucus (D - MT)

Jeff Bingaman (D - NM)

Robert Byrd (D - WV)

Thomas Carper (D - DE)

Kent Conrad (D - ND)

Christopher Dodd (D - CT)

Byron Dorgan (D - ND)

Russell Feingold (D - WI)

Tim Johnson (D - SD)

Herb Kohl (D - WI)

Mary Landrieu (D - LA)

Patrick Leahy (D - VT)

Carl Levin (D - MI)

Joseph Lieberman (D - CT)

Blanche Lincoln (D - AR)

Patty Murray (D - WA)

Bill Nelson (D - FL)

Ben Nelson (D - NE)

Mark Pryor (D - AR)

Jay Rockefeller (D - WV)

Ken Salazar (D - CO)

Ron Wyden (D - OR)

A couple of quick notes:

Eight of these people are what’s called "Class I" senators, meaning that they are up for reelection next year. Let’s remember that. They are: Bingaman, Byrd, Carper, Conrad, Kohl, Lieberman, Nelson (Bill), Nelson (Ben).

Many of those who voted for Roberts say they “take him at his word” and one has to wonder what the hell they’re talking about - he didn’t say anything. What it boils down to is that they just handed the worst president in history - and one who has no respect for them or their party - a major victory.

Special scorn goes to Mary Landrieu for once again stepping up to the plate as one of the biggest Democratic turncoats in the Senate, despite this administration having crapped all over her constituents in the wake of Hurricane Katrina.

  • The president and his administration are absolutely illegitimate due to vote fraud. All his appointees are thus equally illegitimate.

    All politicians should be evaluated for genetic psychopathy.

    • In the 2006 elections it is up to all of the democrats to switch parties and vote on the repuke ballot choosing all of the new people over the incumbants, then in the general vote for the independents and greens, we have got to get rid of the entrenched scum bags that are maggots on our dying country.

    • Absolutely you have to get rid of those who just nod!

    • You know what is amazing is that you are saying that our great country is dying and yet no one seems to want to leave. I do recall so many people saying that they would move to Canada if Bush was reelected. I guess moving to Canada was not such a great thing. Unlike other supposed great countries, like Cuba and Venezuala, we do not force people to stay. In fact if you want to leave you can. No on is stopping you. If you choose to stay instead of crying all the time do something. The great war protest drew maybe 100,00 protesters. More than ten times that number flocked the streets of Boston to celebrate the Red Sox’s winning the World Series last year. But hey I am sure that busses and traind were rerouted by Bush to make sure less people should up.

    • I like to quote that legal immigration has decreased since 2000. Moreover educated people and therefore people who could take care of themselves have stopped coming and have even left the country.
      Only illegal slave workers from Mexico, middle America or Latin America make the majority of immigrants, but those are mostly illegal and rely on social services like education for their kids and health care.

    • Another stupid fuck with a "new phraseology on" Love It Or LEAVE IT.....for your information asshole, I intend to stay and fight for my country by getting rid of the scum that is infesting the government. Unlike you who would allow the crooks to occupy the White House and Supreme Court and Congress even while they rob you blind and wreck our country. At least I am not a fool like you, like a duped sap head. I can see what these crooks are doing, while you just go along with any lies they want to tell you like a half wit.

      And further more, what makes you think you have a monopoly on partiotism? If you are not even intelligent enough to recognize that our country is going to hell with the Bu$h crime family in charge and the military industrial complex running things. At least I care enough to try to correct a government that no longer is accountable to the people who are supposed to be benefiting from our society not just the corporations who have the politicians in their pockets, but then you are too stupid to know any thing about that. Go back to sleep.

    • That is because "YOUR" Leader had made it too legal for them to be here and given them a free pass, helped them buy homes and given the loans to start their own buisnesses.
      Just like he did Bin Laden.

    • I think The Repuke Scumbags have been doing that for decades, they actually help finance the Democrats weakest links, vote for them in the Primary and leave us with a poor choice in the General Election.
      Perhaps if we turned the tables around and did the same thing they would lose some of their GODS. After all they look at Bush as a GOD he does no wrong in their eyes, until he tramples them and then they cry louder than any Democrat, they are nothing but a bunch of hypocrites
      Look at the Students after he cut their Grants ha ha ha
      The Veterans that supported him , He cut their medical care ha ha ha
      He got your money and you got the finger ha ha ha
      Keep on praising him as if he were your GOD and you will find a lot more ha ha ha’s in a year
      Heil Bush
