1. For them to do that, it would require a backbone...
which neither Pelosi or Reid have.

12. We don't vote for Senate and House leadership..
The assholes we elect do it though.

It doesn't even matter how many dem senators or reps we have. Our dem leaders are fucking wimps, so they just roll over to the repukes on everything. :mad:
