You Know It's Bad When Robert Byrd is the Most Conservative

The Grand Poobah Harry Reid named the Dem members of the Senate Committees today. So how do these guys (and gals) add up? Surprise - they don't. You know things are bad when Robert Byrd is the most conservative of all the committee leaders...

Foreign Relations: Sen. Joe Biden, D-Delaware
ACLU score 92% NARAL score 100% LIFETIME American Conservative Union score 14

Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (appropriately called HELP): Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Massachusetts
ACLU score 92% NARAL score 100% LIFETIME American Conservative Union score 3

Judiciary: Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vermont
ACLU score 100% NARAL score 75% LIFETIME American Conservative Union score 6
(doesn't bode well for getting judges out of committee)

Small Business: Sen. John Kerry, D-Massachusetts
ACLU score 83% NARAL score 100% LIFETIME American Conservative Union score 5
(can someone please tell me what type of small business experience John Kerry has)

Intelligence: Sen. Jay Rockefeller, D-West Virginia
ACLU score 70% NARAL score 75% LIFETIME American Conservative Union Score 10

You get the idea. ACLU issues - positive. NARAL issues - positive. Anything remotely resembling conservative - negative.

So one issue Republican voters - we now have a ZERO issue Congress. Thanks. Thanks a lot.
