I’m reading my local paper online about how our Senator Judd Gregg is seriously thinking of accepting Obama’s offer to be Commerce Secretary, thereby throwing the Senate into a condition where the Republicans can no longer even muster a filibuster. This is truly a disaster. I think Obama has the cunning of a fox and he’s very effectively putting all his markers in place. Besides, we are now learning that the cabinet appointments are window dressing: the real policy advisers are the Leftists being stuffed into the West Wing by Obama.

This man’s subterfuge is brilliant. The people have fallen for it, hook, line, and sinker.

What does it say about the GOP when one of its senators would consent to leaving the nation and his party in the lurch for a cabinet position where he’s not likely to have a lot of influence anyway?
