Democratic Senators who deserve our contempt

(1) Senator Ken Salazar (Colorado).

(2) Senator Joseph Lieberman (Conn.).

(3) Senator Ben Nelson (Neb.).

(4) Senator Mary Landrieu (La.)

(5) Senator Pryor (Ark).

(6) Senator Bill Nelson (Fla.)

They voted to confirm Gonzales.

Of course, all the Republican senators did too, but we already knew they deserved our contempt. Even John McCain, who was himself tortured, apparently doesn't think the experience was that bad after all. (Perhaps with torture, as with labor, you forget the pain?). Which suggests that peoples' 'personal stories' have little effect on their political behavior.
