Mr. Unity Named the Most Liberal Senator of 2007
You know that guy willing to work with Democrats and Republicans alike? You know, reach across the aisle and unite the country once more? End this extreme partisanship and close the gap in this divided nation? Remember him? Yeah, he’s the most Liberal Senator of 2007.
Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., was the most liberal senator in 2007, according to National Journal’s 27th annual vote ratings. The insurgent presidential candidate shifted further to the left last year in the run-up to the primaries, after ranking as the 16th- and 10th-most-liberal during his first two years in the Senate.
He’s gotten more Liberal as time has gone on, finally reaching the pinnacle of being named the most Liberal Senator. As Allah writes:
In case you were wondering why his message is 10 parts gassy “change” to every one part specific policy proposals, here’s why. So successful has the Messiah been in focusing attention on his own charisma, oratory, and “narrative” and away from his actual record that even 20% of the readership of a site like this is willing (momentarily) to vote for him over McCain. How doctrinaire is he? He’s to the left of Russ Feingold.
And, just to remind you, Feingold favors impeachment and ending funding for Iraq.
Yeah, the man who can bring the nation together. Right. And don’t think the media will take him to task for this. No siree. Just keep concentrating on his message of “hope”.
