Is anyone else as depressed as I am over the concerted effort by President-Elect Obama and the Senate Democrats to let Lieberman's political perfidy go unpunished? I have read all the reasons given for this course of action, and they all leak like a sieve. His capacity to do harm tp Democratic Policy has been demonstrated too many times for me to accept Senator Evan Bayh's statement that if he acts up we can remove him from his Chairmanship. (Translation: Wait until Lieberman shoots a hole in hull of The Ship of State. We can remove him as the ship sinks). In Heaven's name, is this political expediency the new politics we were promised?

When the McCain Campaign launched Murtagh's attack
on Obama via Michelle's employment at Sidley & Austin,
they were apparently unaware that in doing so they
were attacking the reputation of one of the most
powerful law firms in the nation. A law firm's reputation
vital to its financial life and I should think that the partners
of Sidley & Austin would not take lightly Murtagh's (and
McCain's) charge that they are - and have been - harboring
a terrorist in their firm.
