The US Senate has approved Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State in President Barack Obama's cabinet.

Mrs Clinton easily won a vote in the Senate 94-2, despite some lingering concerns from Republicans.

Why in the hell did the republicans not stop this? So, when a dem President nominates someone they are in, when a republican President does there is a fight? After eight years of dem senators screwing with Bush's nominees, it is nice to see the republicans just roll over for Obama.

Do ever go to lucianne.com?  I LOVE that site and they lovingly refer to Hillary as "pig in a pantsuit"  It makes me laugh.

What else did you expect the spineless, cheese dick bastards to do?  Even when they were the majority they were bending and scraping to the NeoCommies, why should that stop when the NeoCOmmies are in charge again.

That's why the NeoCommies are in charge. Too many of the Republicans have been spineless wonders. McCain is doing the country no favors. He actually gets me sick now to even see his appeasing, turncoat face. Sorry I voted for him, but I would be sicker if I voted for O.

I admire Rush, Hannity and Laura Ingraham for speaking up and not being gushing, disgusting sheeples.

He just doesn't get it, and at his age obviously never will.  Having him for a candidate was like trying to swim with an anchor.

I'll post the story of the person to replace her in the US Senate in another thread.  Hint--she's Carl's and my congresscritter.
