You Can Smell the Desperation

Oh, boy. You can smell the desperation in this form letter to the Democrats found on Radio Left:

Senator Harry Reid, Democratic Majority Leader

Senator Patrick Leahy, Judiciary Committee Chairman

Senator Edward Kennedy, Judiciary Committee Member

Senator Joe Biden, Jr., Judiciary Committee Member

Senator Herb Kohl, Judiciary Committee Member

Senator Dianne Feinstein, Judiciary Committee Member

Senator Russ Feingold, Judiciary Committee Member

Senator Chuck Schumer, Judiciary Committee Member

Senator Dick Durbin, Judiciary Committee Member

Senator Ben Cardin, Judiciary Committee Member

Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, Judiciary Committee Member

Senators:

Currently, I am a Democratic Precinct Chair in Dallas, Texas. In fact, when Senator’s Reid, Biden, and Obama came to Dallas and spoke at Lee Park, they were in my precinct.

I am a lifelong Democrat (well, except for a few years in high school when my cousin Bo Callaway ran for governor against Lester “Ax Handle” Maddox).

Here’s my problem: I have been a strong and consistent supporter of Majority Leader Reid, Speaker of the House Pelosi, and have explained the failure to stop the war and various other things on the basis that you don’t have a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate or a veto proof majority in the House. The problem is that when you have the ability to put a road-block in Bush’s way, you don’t do it and then expect us to think you are doing the best you can when you can’t deliver. If you won’t deliver where you can, my voters justifiably think that you are not serious about stopping the damage Bush is doing to our country.

I cannot defend the confirmation of Judge Michael Mukasey to my voters. There are many things Senate Democrats cannot control, but we do have sufficient numbers to reject Bush’s nominees. It was a horrible mistake to confirm Judge’s Roberts and Alito. When Senator Biden was chairman, he was able to orchestrate a hearing that stopped Robert Bork. We need that kind of courage now.

My voters are angry. What can I tell them about your allowing Judge Mukasey to become Attorney General of the United States when I think you are dead wrong on this one?

If the Senate Democrats don’t block the confirmation of Judge Michael Mukasey to be Attorney General, we will lose voters.

Yada, yada, yada. Like I said, you can smell the desperation, like 3 day old sewage.  The Democrats in office know the reality of the situation, they know they’ll be out of office if they spend any amount of time bending over forward to accommodate the far left and it’s fantasies. Once again the words of David Obey come to mind.

You’d think the left would get the message by now. Then again, since when does the real world permeate the visions of the left?

Pathetic.
