where would we be today if all Dems had refused to vote with Bush and the Rs?

[G_j]

Iraq war, PATRIOT Act, Bankruptcy bill, etc. etc. etc.. appointments to SCOTUS, Gonzales, Ashcroft, etc. etc...



you know, the way the loser Rs are acting right now..
they lost BIG TIME, yet they are dominating the airwaves,
this whole scenario gives me very little hope

1. i do not understand why the dems rolled over then and are doing it now n/t

[MNDemNY]

2. That is called Bi-partisianism. Aint it fun??

One step forward, two and a half back!!! We soooo rule!

4. Yesterday the Senate fell short by two votes...

the 60-vote threshold needed to add $25 billion for highway projects and transit programs. And one of those two votes was Mary Landrieu. We will be able to pass no legislation without the dreadful 'bi-partisanship'..or the equally dreaded 'compromise'. But that's okay because we'll be partisan!! Whippeeee!!

6. Yes, and I forgot about all those votes we got in the House.

[stillcool]

9. Too bad you need more than the House..

to pass legislation eh?

11. so why did the dems give into everything that ran this crap up and us into the dumper

while the repukes had control - this shows how little the dems fought back

[Rosa Luxemburg]

3. they both have many skeletons in the closet

either way one threatens to open it

5. Dems always want to go along to get along, so they sign on to unpopular

and harmful shit. Republicans are good at taking the pulse of Joe Blow, so they refuse to sign on to anything unpopular, letting Dems be the "responsible" party.

7. The stimulus will pass minus someof the things that are not stimulus.

Where would we be today if Dems hadn't fought for us?---in much much better shape.

[Winterblues]

8. We would probably have a lot of wet powder.

We all know what that means....:crazy:

[SergeyDovlatov]

10. We would not have a recession and two expensive wars on our hands n/t
