Weiner: Snowe? Stupak? Lieberman? Who left these people in charge?

While many House Democrats have expressed anger with the Senate for the watered-down bill, Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.) argued that it was really Obama who let centrists take control. "Snowe? Stupak? Lieberman? Who left these people in charge?" he said. "It's time for the president to get his hands dirty. Some of us have compromised our compromised compromise. We need the president to stand up for the values our party shares. We must stop letting the tail wag the dog of this debate."

Sen. Russ Feingold (D-Wisc.) similarly suggested that blaming Lieberman was ignoring the real culprit -- Obama.

"This bill appears to be legislation that the president wanted in the first place, so I don't think focusing it on Lieberman really hits the truth," said Feingold. "I think they could have been higher. I certainly think a stronger bill would have been better in every respect."

And Grayson? Anyone see anything from him?

I think Weiner's statement is fair. Even the staunchest Obama support concedes that he could have been a stronger leader. I'm still hoping he'll DO something as far as leadership to move this in the right direction.

Lieberman: Dem's favorite fall guy. No wonder he keeps his Chairmanship.

That's who.

Passing landmark legislation requires cutting deals with the mushy middle. This is something new?
