RINOS Confirm Cass Sunstein as Regulatory Czar

With three Democrat senators voting against cloture on the nomination of Cass Sunstein for Regulatory Czar, the left needed a few reliable RINOS to jump in and do some heavy lifting. They got their wish when the following 5 REPUBLICANS stepped up to put ol' Cass over the 60 votes needed to end the debate on his nomination and send it to a full senate floor vote:

Bennett (UT)
Collins (ME)
Hatch (UT)
Lugar (IN)
Snowe (ME)

Hats off to Democrat Senators Pryor (AR), Lincoln (AR), and Webb (VA) for voting against cloture and opposing their leftist Democrat comrades. Comically, Sen. Hatch released the following statement, stating that he disagreed with most of his views but still voted for him:
