Joe the Weasel having it both ways.
He gets to say he was against both bills while not having to vote that way.

Yep, Lucy pulled the football on the WV voters yet again. Maybe they should just go ahead and make Charlie Brown the state mascot!

Sen. Joseph Lieberman, I-Conn., an observant orthodox Jew, was present and actively engaged in the DADT debate despite his faith's resrictions on working on the sabbath. --
IIRC, Lieberman has used his religion as an excuse to be absent, in the past. Plus, he was, by definition, NOT being observant yesterday.

This might actually be the best you can expect from a “Blue Dog Democrat”.

WV finds out what they voted for. Congrats, idiots. You have another chance to throw this loser out. Do the right thing next time, won’t you?

Even if this guy is telling the truth, try this act at your job and see what happens. To be honest with you we are a bunch of lousy bosses.

Isn’t not voting for or against a bill equivalent to voting against it?
To: Palmetto Patriot
"While he regrets missing the votes, it was a family obligation that he just could not break," Sara Payne Scarbro told the newspaper."
That's about as lame as the "Omaha Steaks" response. In fact that may take its place along with other Obama era cop outs like "passing it to find out whats in it" etc.

Isnt not voting for or against a bill equivalent to voting against it? Yes.
And it is also equivalent to voting for it.

"While he regrets missing the votes, it was a family obligation that he just could not break," Sara Payne Scarbro told the newspaper."This is absolute BS. How the heck do these people get away with not doing their jobs? There is no family 'obligation' that outweighs the responsibility to do what you were elected to do. Family 'obligations' can be changed, postponed, or rearranged. Don't they go on vacation in the very near future here anyway?

All the congress critters need to be sexually assaulted by the TSA and to be run through a drug test daily.
