It's just a left-wing version of the wing-nut nonsense bubbles and his little anonymous friend deal in and that don't make it right any more than it makes it true.<BR/><BR/>"Thinking" like that put Bush in the White House, Jim Douglas in the Governor's Chair and brain-dead Brian Dubie on the State Payroll.<BR/><BR/>Symington's got some problems but being a corporate lackey who cares about preserving the environment as long as she doesn't actually have to do anything like Douglas and caves the first time Douglas says no ain't one of 'em. <BR/><BR/>She blew the veto override votes. Some of it was bad luck. some of it wasn't her fault - I offer one John Anderson of Montpelier appointed by Jim Douglas to replace Francis Brooks as Exhibit A., but gop-slop happens and she's gotta be prepared to deal with that when it happens again this year because, gops being gops, it will happen again this year. <BR/><BR/>Clearly, Douglas is no more willing to negotiate in good faith and respect the will of the State of Vermont any more than Bush is willing to do it on the National Level. Gop Scum will be gop scum and while that's unfortunate and there's no Earthly reason for them to behave in that manner, they're gop scum and nobody should be surprised when gop scum acts like gop scum. It's who they are, it's what they do. <BR/><BR/>Nancy Pelosi has to be prepared for it on the National Level and Gaye Symington needs to be prepared for it on the State Level.JWCoop10http://www.blogger.com/profile/02973649350382557883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30056046.post-76436162588187704312008-01-08T16:07:00.000-05:002008-01-08T16:07:00.000-05:00Ah, yes, Maxine Waters!
