Yes, American loses if DHIMMIcRATs win, but if we have to swallow this in order to convince Rockefeller Republicans (can we start calling them McCain Republicans, or maybe Arlen Specter Republicans), then gulp, gulp, gulp.

Not only that, but as of this post, it's actually received more positive votes than any other question, and it would be in 1st place now. . .if the voting system's security and design flaws weren't being abused through sockpuppet "Delete" votes -- see for yourself: http://truthlaidbear.com/gop_qvote.php?id=277 It would have taken 1st place last time, too -- in fact, it actually did, once it was resubmitted, with the votes and comments made prior to its removal scrupulously reproduced. But NZ Bear summarily censored it yet again at the close of voting, and so the most popular question of the previous poll apparently was never presented to the interviewers or the candidates.

She has to put Alcee Hastings at intelligence because she can't swallow her pride over Jane Harman and the Black Caucus is making this a Condition of the Sale. Now the New York <i>Times</i> Editorial Board, usually a reliable stooge of the DNC, is up in arms about Alcee. Too bad, so sad. Dems tripping over themselves already. Wait till Mitch McConnell and Trent Lott get through with them. Pelosi will be begging for Condi's whip. Pelosi is in a real bind.
