Which one of these Republican Deficit Hawks stood up and said Cheney was full of shit? Which one raised holy hell and tried to put in place a freeze on spending? Which one? .....crickets, is that what I'm hearing? Does anyone else hear all those crickets chirping?

the MSM has been republicon since Ronald Reagan, and because intimidation WORKS. Death threats work. Suicides work. Exploded planes work.
The Bush bunch are well aware of it, and have been doing it for a loooooooooong time.

5. So, I guess you're saying that Republicans are unprincipled, opportunistic hacks? |
|
It is amazing how they've rediscovered their roots...after their 'taxcut and spend' philosophy has pretty much imploded the world economy.

7. Republicans didn't say squat... |
|
But I will defend my Blue Dogs, who DID speak up. I know they are much reviled on here, but at least they're consistent.
