When will Dems see Republicans for what they are.
In the NYT story about the FDA official who quit over the morning after pill delay, I found the following paragraph quite interesting:
"The two senators had prevented the Senate from voting on Dr. Crawford's nomination to become commissioner because they said they wanted the agency to make a decision - for or against - on the Plan B application. They lifted their holds when the health and human services secretary, Michael O. Leavitt, guaranteed that the agency would act on the application by Sept. 1.
The senators cried foul when the agency's action amounted to further delay, with Ms. Murray calling the decision "the worst double-cross I've ever seen in my time in the Senate." A spokeswoman for Mr. Leavitt said that he believed that the agency's announcement amounted to "an action."
When will we ever learn that Republicans are amoral liars and not to be trusted. Kerry complained bitterly that Bush lied to him about the War in Iraq. Kennedy complained about NCLB. Reid claimed Bush lied to him. So it's surprising that Hillary and Patti would believe this Crawford guy. They apparently refuse to get it: Republicans have no sham and will do what ever they have to do, no matter how egregious, to get their way.
