Hall of shame

The craven jellyfish who voted to condemn MoveOn for telling the truth:

Max Baucus, Evan Bayh, Ben Cardin, Tom Carper, Bob Casey, Kent Conrad, Byron Dorgan, Dianne Feinstein, Tim Johnson, Amy Klobuchar, Herb Kohl, Mary Landrieu, Pat Leahy, Blanche Lincoln, Claire McCaskill, Barbara Mikulski, Ben Nelson, Bill Nelson, Mark Pryor, Ken Salazar, Jon Tester, and Jim Webb.

Oh, and perennial Bush knob-polisher Joe Lieberman (I-Me), naturally.

Now we wait to see who will step forward to condemn House Republican leader John Boehner for saying the deaths of our troops in Iraq is a "small price" to pay, the swift boat scum - among others - for attacking John Kerry, and Saxby Chambliss for attacking Max Cleland.

Besides our hero Keith Olbermann, of course: Bunnypants's "pissy juvenile blast":

Thursday's Countdown, MSNBC host Keith Olbermann used his latest "Special Comment" to attack President Bush's "pissy juvenile blast" for the [AWOL idiot]'s criticism of the MoveOn.org ad during the day's news conference, accusing him of hypocrisy for not criticizing what Olbermann called the Republican "hamstringing of Captain Max Cleland and the lying about Lieutenant John Kerry."

KEITH OLBERMANN: Finally tonight, as promised, a "Special Comment" on Mr. Bush's smear today of MoveOn.org and, in a larger context, his smear of criticism of his own political front men.

The President behaving a little bit more than usual like we'd all interrupted him while he was watching his favorite cartoons on the DVR, stepped before the press conference microphone and, after side-stepping most of the substantive issues, like the Israeli raid on Syria, in condescending and infuriating fashion, produced a big wow political finish that indicates certainly that, if it was not already, the annual Republican witch-hunting season is under way...

It is a line which history shows is always the first one crossed when a democratic government in some other country has started down the long, slippery, suicidal slope towards a military junta. Get back behind that line, Mr. Bush, before some of your supporters mistake your dangerous and stupid transgression as a call to further politicize our military.

And MoveOn's Eli Pariser responds to the Moron-in-Chief's politically petty "disgusting" comment yesterday:

"What's disgusting is that the President has more interest in political attacks than developing an exit strategy to get our troops out of Iraq and end this awful war. The President has no credibility on Iraq: he lied repeatedly to the American people to get us into the war. Most Americans oppose the war and want us to get out. Right now, there are about 168,000 American soldiers in Iraq, caught in the crossfire of that country's unwinnable civil war, and the President has betrayed their trust and the trust of the American people."
