| 1. Burris and Blago and how we react to them are proof positive of the difference between R and D. |
|
If they were R, the rubes would all be flocking to them crying foul based on party loyalty over ethics.

| 2. That is not a bad thing |
|
Party loyalty over ethics is unacceptable. I am proud to be associated with the party you describe.

Did I come off as saying we are doing a bad thing?
Party loyalty over ethics breeds malaise at best and extreme corruption at worst. Simple logic.

| 5. Would the R's be so stupid as to accept his appointment under those circumstances? |
|
I don't like the R worldview, but the R's aren't weak and stupid. They'd not be so weak and stupid as put impeachment "off the table" when a case for impeachment was so clear as the case given to the D's, nor would they be so stupid as to be snookered by a weasel like Blago. Actually I think Blago snookered the D's by playing on their so amply demonstrated spinelessness - like shooting fish in a barrel.

Blago is impeached and the D's are about to get rid of "his guy".
Yep...like shooting fish in a barrel. Snookered alright! :eyes:

| 8. Correct, I never wanted him to have the seat ... |
|
in the first place,as I listened to him go on and on about how he had his friends calling asking for him to be placed in the seat. He talks too much.
