Party before country?

[Demoiselle]

What are we to think of a Republican ( Senator Gregg) who refuses to serve his country (as Secretary of Commerce) unless he gets a guarantee from Democrats (Governor and President) that he will be replaced in the Senate by another Republican? And what are we to think of Democrats who agree to such demands?
Any thoughts?

1. Just a typical political agreement-The puzzle is why Obama needs/wants Judd Gregg

2. I hope Greggs replacement is either a closet Dem or a very centrist Puke.

Otherwise this was a very stupid move.

3. We "Thinks" Some Spines Are Still MISSING IN ACTION! I'm HATE

to say it, but I'm more "confusedider" than I ever thought I would be! Seems every time I turn around the Repukes throw another brick at Bi-Partisanship! I so WISH I didn't feel so tied up in knots all the time! Say nothing of the wonder I feel of where to turn!!!

Are we back to square one again? I DO know that what was left by BFEE was horrid, but it seems the Repukes don't give a tinker's DAMN!!!!

4. That both parties know

they control us so thoroughly that only about 2% of the population would even think about the obvious implications.
