Russ Feingold: Hypocrisy in Action

Well, who would have thought?! What a miracle!! The Democrats want to change the rules when it won't benefit them!!? Unbelievable. Senator Russ Feingold (D) wants to change the rules mid-game. When the 'wonderfully qualified' Senator Clinton was appointed Secretary of State, nobody blinked an eye as the unelected Governor Patterson appointed a Democrat to take her place in the Senate. Well, now that Senator Judd Gregg (R) has been appointed to be the Commerce Secretary, Senator Feingold thinks that if the New Hampshire Governor appoints a Republican to take Gregg's place....it's "alarmingly undemocratic?" What kind of backward logic is that??! So it's great for the Dems/Socialists (let's just call them for what they are now) and it's undemocratic for Republicans? The hypocrisy is just overflowing here.
