Let's suppose the Dems take back congress in '06,
will they do anything to repeal/revoke some of the total crap legislation that has passed? Such as the bankruptcy bill, the energy bill, the real id act, & of course, the mother of all pieces of crap, the patriot act.

1. bush will veto, better get a veto proof majority then ...

2. They can then put election transparency laws in place that have
teeth.

3. They probably wouldn't do anything we'd hope for.
Because if they're going to posture, they wouldn't want to do anything that will be used against the party for the 2008 race.

"Democrats tried to get rid of the Patriot Act. They don't want you to be secure, we do."

"Democrats tried to get rid of the bankruptcy protection bill, because they think they should be able to spend and spend and never pay it back."

You know that would be said, you know they'd get away with it again, and that the American public's attention is short. They'd forget that Bush broke it all, and that the "Tax and Spend Democrats... blah blah blah"

God I hate professional politics.
