SEN. COBURN PLEADS TEARFULLY FOR LESS DIVISIVENESS

Did you catch Sen. Tom Coburn (OK-R) of the Judiciary Committee today choking up and tearfully pleading for less partisanship, less divisiveness, and less polarization? As if it were the fault of Democrats! Sen. Coburn is one of the most extreme members of the Senate. No doubt he believes Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and Glenn Beck are "fair and balanced."

His bizarre, myopic statement is on par with the new conservative meme that Bush and the Republicans "never defend themselves" against Democratic slanders and unfair charges, as I heard on Sean Hannity this afternoon.

UPDATE: To his credit, Sen. Lindsey Graham said that both parties have played a part in the polarization. However, I don't recall any Democrats charging any Republicans with anti-Americanism or suggesting that they are traitors because they don't agree with our positions.
