So I admit that I consider myself more center-left than most Kossacks--but something has been bothering me lately:
When listing the sins Senator Lieberman has committed against the Democratic Party, I keep finding mention of his participation in the Gang of 14 as being part of it.
I realize Lieberman has done some horrible shit (Terri Schiavo ranks pretty high, though the war is inevitably higher on that seemingly endless list), but do Kossacks really despise him for this? I feel like the Gang of 14, at the time, saved what little sanctity the US Senate had left--I know some were pushing for Reid to go nuts and slam his foot on the brakes, but doesn't anyone else think that it was better for the Gang of 14 to emerge than for their to have been an execution of the nuclear option?
