Republicans start off the House session disgracefully!
This is just astounding! Thank god ( and Al Gore) for the internet so we can see this travesty!
Anthony Weiner continues to be my hero! At least one Democrat has cojones!
Fellow Democratic New Yorker, Sen. Chuch Schumer, ascendancy within the senate leadership (both vice chairman of the Democratic caucus and chairman of the Democratic Policy Committee) is also promising.
Re: Republicans start off the House session disgracefully!
Yes, Weiner is doing a great job....and, the biggest loss for progressives was Alan Grayson, who was not afraid to take on the Republican Vultures about anything! ...Schumer I have mixed feelings about, as he goes with the corporations on some votes. Additionaly, do not forget absolutely the most progressive Senator, BERNIE SANDERS, who stands for fairness and justice on every issue; he is also the ONLY legistlator I'm aware of who takes uncensored call-in questions, on his weekly appearance on the Thom Hartmann show (i'm not sure if that is Thursday morning, or Friday morning)..additionally , there are several other courageous progressive Congresspeople and Senators.
