How in the world does he hold his seat. Just look at him. He's a poster child for being so uptight that when he farts only dogs can hear it. What a mealy mouth self serving authoritarian without a conscience whose only job is to impede any democratic progress. How much longer must the Senate have to tolerate the likes of McConell.

Most presidential powers are granted with the "advice and consent of the Senate". Every Senator who has ever said that the President is "entitled" to the people he wants to be in the positions of power (including quite a number of Democrats prior to last November) should be unelected at the next available opportunity. I would like to start an activist group that will promote this issue in every state--if your Senator believes that the President is entitled to anything with the advice and consent of the Senate, he does not know or does not believe in the Constitution of the United States and has abdicated his responsibility as a Senator. I am sure this would play well even in Kentucky, where Ernie Fletcher still has an edge in the Republican primary despite rampant, blatant corruption by him, his staff and his friends. The man should be in jail and he's still running for governor. Why isn't McConnell asked about <em>that</em>? in other words, i guess mitch thinks the senate doesnt matter, and the president is a dictator.

Since when is it not the duty of a US Senator to comment on the job performance of the Attorney General. He is appointed by the president sure, and confirmed by the Senate but he is to serve the people of the United States. He heads one of the three branches of government, does he not?
