Perhaps most infuriating was the reaction of Rep. Rahm Emanuel, who’s head of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee and thereby tasked with leading the charge on behalf of House Democrats during mid-term campaigning:
"Jack Murtha went out and spoke for Jack Murtha. … At the right time, we will have a position."Well isn’t that just wanktastic. When, exactly, might that “right time” be? Can we expect to arrive at that point in the space-time continuum sometime before the mid-term elections, or do you suggest we all hunker down and wait patiently for another three years or so?
This kind of bullshit is absolutely infuriating.
David Sirota’s got more well-earned ranting and raving at HuffPo.
