Confirmation of Rice = A dog and pony show
Advertisements [?]
this was just show....

Rice could have said she kills and eats homeless babies for breakfast and she still would have be confirmed as Sec of State.

This was a done deal. There was nothing short of Rice dying (and even then they would have still probably confirmed her) that would have prevented her from becoming sec of state

Our system of government is fubar'd and needs to have a serious overhaul done by us.

What control do we have over our Federal officials?
NONE! Call as much as you want..wont do a damn thing.

The ONLY way an elected federal official can be removed is by one of the 3 following ways.

1. they die in office
2. they resign
3. they are impeached (the last time this happened was in 1789 a senator from Tennessee)

Wake the hell up people! The system is broke and we need to find a way to fix it!

If you are still in la-la land and think that just because somebody wears the label of Democrat that means they will vote for what is right I hope finally finally finally todays confirmation of Rice shook you to awarness.

Demopublican and Republicrat = single party state.
