I still can't believe people on DU thought he was cool when he said he should be able to wear shorts and flip flops into the Senate chambers.

At the same time people were so indignant that Jordan didn't wear a suit jacket and rolled his sleeves up, sometimes.

Why do Dems keep defending such awful people?
