Wow, check out this latest Bush nominee’s confirmation:

Today, Democrats have once agreed not to fight another Bush nominee. So, Beelzebub will be confirmed as the Secretary of Transportation. Senator Reid praised Mr. Beelzebub for his long work in public service and said he had an inspiring background story — he rose up from anonymity and poverty to take on God himself.

Inspiring.

Democrats were immediately forced to cave in and vote for the nominee. This marked the 666th straight concession by the Democrats. When asked if their base might be bothered by the confirmation of one of Satan’s minions, they said, “Ahh, our base is loony anyway! Screw ’em, we’re running to the right, baby.”

Go there now to read several Democratic Senator’s reasons for helping Bush get his way yet again.

Oh, and while they were at it, they confirmed these two as well.
