Kerry the Truant!

Talk about AWOL!! I wish I could show up to work as often as Kerry does. So John Kerry decides to make a rare appearance at his job, hoping to cast a vote he could then jaunt around the country bragging about. Just one snag...the Republicans decided to delay the vote. The indignation from Kerry is laughable. Kerry said, "Once again, it's my way or the highway, shut the door, lock the people out, don't let them take part in the democracy, don't respect the institution. Don't show the common courtesies that actually bring people together to find the common ground. So they found a way all day to twiddle their thumbs, do very little, attend a reception at the White House, but not let John Kerry vote.

"That's the way they play," Kerry continued. "That's what's at stake in this race."

Really? That's what's at stake? Interesting because I thought it was just little things like American prosperity and national security. I didn't realize being rude to the Great John Kerry was what was at stake. What an arrogant fop. Funny that the same people who are denying an up or down vote to deserving (by the Democrats' own professed standards) judicial nominees are whining about playing politics with our democratic institutions. Really, how dare those Republicans deny Kerry is biannual vote! I only wish more Democrats would go on the campaign trail and stop voting in the Senate. Something might actually get done.
