Suck It, John Roberts

Did you hear about this on the news? Of course you didn't.

Judge says gov’t must allow funding for ACORN:

"A federal judge retained her position that it is unconstitutional for Congress to prevent funding for the activist group ACORN after a government request that she reconsider.

U.S. District Judge Nina Gershon cemented her earlier decision in December and made the injunction permanent against government intervention permanent, asking all federal agencies to spread the word that money to ACORN be allowed without delay.

The judge wrote that it was 'unmistakable that Congress determined ACORN's guilt before defunding it.' Congress may investigate ACORN but cannot 'rely on the negative results of a congressional or executive report as a rationale to impose a broad, punitive funding ban on a specific, named organization.'"

Sanders: ‘One year later, the White House gets it’:

"Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) on Wednesday assailed the White House for purportedly wasting a year vying for Republican votes on health care reform, alleging that the protracted debate weakened the bill and damaged the party’s standing among progressives.

“We have wasted month after month negotiating with people who do not support serious reform,” he said at a progressive media summit on Capitol Hill. 'It's been a year now and I think the White House finally got that message.'"

So do you think it was the faux-pragmatic compromise Democratic monkeys that forced this or the fire breathing, hell raising, never compromise REAL Democrats that forced this?

Yeah, hell raisers. What I like to call a little Act-Right.

But this is GREAT if they actually do it and don't rig it. Later Baucus/Nelsons/Lieberman, you pieces of shit.

Democrats To Upend Seniority System In Senate: Brown:

"Senate Democrats intend to elect the chairs of committees when the next Congress convenes, which could upend a tradition that prioritizes seniority over party loyalty, legislative effectiveness or any other merit-based criteria.

During a question-and-answer session with progressive media, video blogger Mike Stark asked lawmakers why the Democratic caucus hasn't yanked Sen. Blanche Lincoln's chairmanship of the Agriculture Committee, considering her opposition to Democratic legislative efforts. In Arkansas, her gavel is a top selling point as she battles a progressive primary challenge.

'We're going to elect committee chairs next year,' said Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio). 'The current chairs that are sitting there now understand that we'll be electing chairs next year,' he added, saying the idea had been cleared with Senate leadership."

"The president and his aides aren't the only Democrats throwing unusually sharp and public jabs at the conservative members of the Supreme Court.

On Wednesday Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said he was 'so disappointed' with the Court's swing vote -- Justice Anthony M. Kennedy -- for enabling the court's rightward, corporatist tilt. As for Chief Justice John Roberts, the majority leader castigated him as being out of touch and completely detached from political reality.

'Do you think John Roberts knows or cares how people get elected?' he said, referring to the role the chief justice played in crafting the court's Citizens United decision."
