Did you not read my post before cherry-picking one line so you could trash Liberal policies?

My post was about how Conservative Democrats ARE blocking this legislation.  Ergo, they are joining with Republicans to "silently filibuster".  We don't have 60 votes when Lieberman is a guaranteed vote for the Republicans.  Or when Nelson or Bayh or Baucus or Landreiu or Tester or McCaskill or Specter are LIKELY votes for the Republicans.  Or when Kennedy and Byrd are too sick to vote consistently, or when Franken was held up by the Minnesota courts for 8 months.  There hasn't been anything resembling 60 votes on even party-line issues thus far.

So yes, Hugh, when Democrats refuse to support bills that the rest of their party are supporting, that means that the Republicans essentially HAVE 41 Senators.  Harry Reid, as my post clearly pointed out, should force those not interested in pushing these bills to ACTIVELY filibuster, not "silently" filibuster.  

My post was not one that blamed the 40 Republican Senators for the failure of this bill.  I expect them to be useless hypocritical scum who would rather stay in power than see America get better.  I DID blame a Democrat for this.  I DO NOT NEED TO BE CONDESCENDED TO BY YOU.  Enjoy the fact that it is the Democrats' fault currently that the country will not be getting badly needed reform, and take your f*cking disingenuous insults to another thread.
