Without a Democratic Senate….
I noticed this ridiculous ad on Matthew Yglesias’s web log:
If you don’t feel like sitting through the animation, it says “Without a Democratic Senate, George Bush decides against civil rights, against privacy rights, against your rights; Stop the GOP; Elect Democrats; Support the DSCC.”
Trivia question: what party controlled the Senate when it confirmed Clarence Thomas in 1991? Extra credit if you can tell me how Senators John Kerry and Al Gore voted on that confirmation.
