At least liberals will know which "Democrats" to never give money to.
From Raw Story 3/18/09:
Senator Evan Bayh (D-IN) proclaimed today on MSNBC's Morning Joe the beginning of a new group of conservative Democrats that could work to block Obama's budget priorities.
The group, which is composed of 14 Senate Democrats and Joe Lieberman(I-CT), are the same Senators who met two weeks ago to discuss how centrists can assert more leverage on the policy debates that are dominating Congress. The goal of Bayh's “Moderate Dems Working Group” is to “work with the Senate leadership and the new administration to craft common-sense solutions to urgent national problems,” according to the press release. "You have to get the 60 votes in the Senate and that's going to be hard and it will take the centrists to get there. We want to help make the changes we need and that's what our group is all about," Bayh told MSNBC's Joe Scarborough.
In addition to Senators Bayh and Lieberman, others joining the group are Tom Carper of Delaware, Blanche Lincoln of Arkansas, Mark Udall and Michael Bennet of Colorado, Mark Begich of Alaska, Kay Hagan of North Carolina, Herb Kohl of Wisconsin, Mary Landrieu of Louisiana, Joe Lieberman of Connecticut, Claire McCaskill of Missouri, Ben Nelson of Nebraska, Bill Nelson of Florida, Jeanne Shaheen of New Hampshire, and Mark Warner of Virginia.
The Democrats are already governing too far to the right as it is. These jackasses seem determined to reduce voting for Democrats to a futile gesture.
The Green Party keeps looking more attractive...
It's scary to think Bayh was on the short list to be VP.
Dollboy Bayh was a driving force in Indiana behind Hillary Clinton's pathetic effort to win the Democratic nod for president.
He's a Republican pretending to be a Democrat and like Lieberman, more often than not, voted with Bush on a myriad of issues.
I feel SO ashamed. I lived in Missouri [Claire McCaskill] and now live in Florida [Bill Nelson].
where can I move to to find people who actually have some modicum of the best interests of the people at heart?
Good job spreading the word. Heard about this on one of my favorite podcasts, WakeUp Am.
Nelson, your comment gives me the willies.
Prediction: Geithner will be gone in 60-days.
Is there something I missed that it seems like people against Barack Obama are coming out of the woodwork? I work a lot so maybe a missed a day of news.
Also, GLH, wanted to point you at two entries on my blog. There was an anti-tax, anti-Obama rally today here in Lexington, KY. And then there seems to be an upsurge of climate change is a hoax stuff in the paper here.
