The Petraeus confirmation vote

Bob Owens found this link to the senate vote on David Petraeus' confirmation.

81 - Yea
19 - Not voting

NOT. ONE. SINGLE. NAY. VOTE.

Schumer - Yea
Durbin - Yea
Feinstein - Yea
Clinton - Yea
Obama - Yea [UPDATE, tnx Alex]
Kennedy - Yea
Reid - Yea
Levin - Yea

Keep this in mind in the days to come when these jackasses start talking about "Bush's report". All those assholes voted to confirm Petraeus - ALL OF THEM.

If they believed he was going to lie or be a Bush sycophant, then why did they vote for him? These would be votes that need a lot of "explaining". That approach casts severe doubt on their "judgment" if they would knowingly vote to confirm someone they thought not qualified for the job.
