The Senate Democrats cave again

What's the point in even HAVING Democrats in the Senate if they're just going to roll over for Bush every time? It appears that John Roberts is going be rammed down our throat without even the smallest semblance of a fight. The Washington Post reports the following:

The Democrats' decision to hold their fire -- less a formal strategy than an emerging consensus -- has allowed conservatives to husband their resources for future battles. Progress for America, a political group working closely with the White House, had planned to spend $18 million to promote the confirmation of Roberts but now may spend less than half that, according to Republican aides.

What freaking good does THAT do for Democratic causes? WHY should we continue to support people with no backbone? Do you think Rove would allow the GOP to roll over for a Democratic President like that? HELL NO. They would have faked pictures of the Democratic nominee in flagrante delicto with a woodland creature before they would have allowed that to happen.

Dignity my ass; it's for losers, and that's what the Democrats in the Senate are today.
