Kerry foiled by GOP Senators

John Kerry attempted to stop by and vote on a particular bill in the Senate, one over veteran's benefits. However, the Republicans in the Senate delayed the vote. Kerry apparently will not vote on the bill now. The part of the article that caught my attention was a quote from Kerry:

"It's politics at its silliest," he told CNN. "It speaks for itself."

Brwee... Brwee... Brwee... Hypocrisy alert sounding! Who's playing politics? Maybe Kerry should be in the Senate more than 20% of the time. After all, the voters in Massachusetts didn't elect him to campaign. I think that it was bad form for Frist to get the vote delayed, but completely justified by Kerry's lack of commitment to getting his job done.
