Something that has really bothered me this past month? The Burris appointment making it through Congress. It will really bolster my spirits when self-serving people stop playing Cards. Burris and his friends played the same race card that Clarence Thomas did, right down to using the word "lynching" to intimidate otherwise reasonable officials and subvert the normal political process. It disappoints me to the core that this tactic was not widely seen and described as such. It shocks me that so many people were willing to consider the fruit of a tainted appointment as legitimate. It is an embarrassment to the Senate as a body and, as far as I'm concerned, a shame to all minorities.
