Americans can thank Tom Daschle for that cowardly crap. He even rushed back to the Senate to shepherd it through, using his power as Majority Leader to make it happen, and then actually voted for it himself. The GOP did not run the Senate then. Tom Daschle did.The Iraqi War Resolution? That would be this *******ed stupid war in Iraq. Senate Majority Leader, Tom Daschle didn't just vote for it like a few other Democrats. No that wasn't enough for the leader of the Senate. Daschle railroaded that historic blunder right through the Senate to George W. Bush's pen. The GOP did not run the Senate then. Tom Daschle did.The "Patriot Act"? You got it! Senate Majority Leader, Tom Daschle also railroaded that shit right through the Senate and delivered it on a silver plate to George W. Bush and Dick Cheney. The GOP did not run the Senate then. Tom Daschle did.The so-called "Homeland" Defense Department? Again, the leader of the Senate, Tom Daschle, pushed it through the Senate, voted for it himself and gave it to an eager George W. Bush. The GOP did not run the Senate then. Tom Daschle did.The last obscene corporate bailout with little transparency? That would be the "Airline Bailout" after 9/11/01. Around $20 Billion given by Congress to Airline Executives who in turn executed massive layoffs, cut airline routes and cut back on passenger service. Who saw it through? The Tom and Linda Daschle Team, that's who. Linda Daschle, Tom's wife, was the chief lobbyist for American Airlines, and delivered the goods with her husband ran that taxpayer rip-off right through the Senate that he "led". The GOP did not run the Senate then. Tom Daschle did.There's too much 'there' there on Tom Daschle.Let's not deceive ourselves. Tom Daschle is not a progressive.Tom Daschle's uber-career lobbyist wife, Linda, undermines Obama's boldly stated, strong stand against lobbying.No one has lobbied Congress more than Linda Daschle. No one.And the ugly truth is this: More right wing legislation passed under Tom Dashcle's stewardship of the Senate, than did under his GOP follow-up. That's just the hard and shameful facts.
