Roberts: Dems belong to "Committee Against Everything" Bush does

[ProSense]

What a nice thing to say!

From March 1 article:

I don’t think it’s a stretch to say that many in the minority would prefer to serve on “the Committee Against Everything the Bush Administration Does.” Nothing short of that will satisfy them. Unfortunately, political stunts like shutting down the Senate, as we saw in November, only serve to waste time from the important issues at hand.

1. It's so much easier to be against everything he does

since it is all misguided or incompetent.

It just saves time.

2. Well everything they do is so shitty, mean spirited and .....

stupid and costly and half-assed and aimed to help one segment of society.

3. What an ass.

"Unfortunately, political stunts like shutting down the Senate...." Don't I recall the republicans shutting down the government more than once during the Clinton presidency?

[fooj]

4. No. We just believe in THE RULE OF LAW.

Fuck you, Roberts! Go play in a freeway.

Peace.

5. Unlike Repubs who belong to the "Committee to Point Blame

at Everyone Else."

Roberts can go screw - because of his position and lack of desire to look into the obvious, he may be worse than all others in this group.

6. Pat Friken Roberts is one answer to the oft-asked question:

What's the matter with Kansas????

[Renew Deal]

7. Yet we also get criticized for voting for the Iraq War

Go figure.

8. Repubs belong to "Committee With Their Lips On Bush's Ass"

9. And this is the guy who rattles his "memory pills" on TeeVee?

MM-Hmmm, he sounds rational and sane....

10. It's not just their figurehead that I oppose. It's the whole of the evil

movement that calls itself conservative that needs throwing out.

Since the so called conservative movement is so wrong, so evil, so dishonest on every issue, I would have no problem with making opposition to them the central organizing principle of my political philosophy.

I think we can broaden that committee to include

60% of the population of this country.

It's not a committee, like in the 10% days of 2001-02. We're now the majority.

11. There's a committee? How do I get on it?

Seriously, I want to email Roberts and ask him. Because if any other management structured fucked up as seriously and consistently as these felonious nutcases, they'd be out on their cans. Belonging to a committee that takes such a reasonable position would look good on a resume.

12. Let me know when bush does something RIGHT....

... and I'll look to change committees at that point...

[in_cog_ni_to]

13. It's a waste of time to shut down the Senate for a few hours, but

investigating Bill Clinton for 8 freakin' years wasn't a waste of time? Hypocrite.

[zbdent]

14. How about political stunts like

trying to have a congressman arrested on the floor . . .

keeping a 15-minute vote open until wee hours of the morning to strongarm votes to make sure you have the bare minimum majority . . .

flying the House & Senate back into Washington DC to pass "feel-good, do-nothing" legislation for ONE PERSON . . .

scheduling a key vote for a time when a presidential candidate is clear across the country, then rescheduling the vote for a later date after he makes sure he can be there for the vote . . .

Naw, those aren't "political stunts" . . .

15. roberts belong to the "committee to give bush cover on every fucking

criminal deed he does"
