Democrats don't like to investigate like Republicans do....
And the other Party is very aware of that fact. They can get away with murder before the Democrats will call for an investigation. And they probably have?

But it is more in the "nature" of Republicans to investigate...so long as it is not one of "theirs"...Then they grow agonizingly silent.

1. The Dems lack a fighting instinct much less a 'killer' instinct.
Its up to us to fight. As Sharpton stated, 'to beat that donkey till it gets me where I want to go'. Sad that tmany reps who could speak out instead sold us out, but if they refuse to fight, we will.

2. I know- they are acting like they are afraid.
It's not very good leadership to give the opposition a free pass to be so corrupt & dishonest- it needs to end.

3. We have got to pull our chins off the floor
And take the gloves off. The Repukes did that along time ago. But we have to keep the moral high ground, just make lots and lots of noise about every bit of dirt and hypocrisy we dig up on these bad bad people.

4. That's probably because our DINOs are deep in the doo.

5. Rockefeller Republicans didn't like to investigate...
The new "mean" pug's were the new investigators. WE are the investigative arm of the Democratic Party...

6. And as I recall, the Repubs acted very similarly when Watergate broke??
"Oh, it's just those liberals after the President", they said. Ain't nothing to it, they assured us. Just like they are doing now...
