i just want to add my hat--and that hat is immense, chatreuse and sports a feather---to the ring amongst others tossed by folk who really do not understand what the democrats in the senate are thinking of on the burris business.
now that those nimrods on cnn are saying that feinstein has come out in favor of seating him...(why o why do i watch this nonsense ever?)....
it seems that the presumption of innocence is out the window here, swamped by the rhetoric of the "taint" (fighting down the temptation to make a string of obvious jokes)...so obviously the problem is that the democrats are worried about tossing some ammunition to the right (which is not in this case a synonym for the media tout court).
i think this is a stupid fight to have undertaken: there are far more pressing matters.
