Bad behavior rewarded.
Edited on Wed Nov-03-10 05:17 AM by travelingtypist
That's all I can see right now. The economy probably had something to do with it, but in the end, these Republican slimes got away with bad faith, bad actor, whatever bad concept you can dream up and they still got the power back. So what makes anybody think if they got away with this shit when they were out of power, what kind of new and fresh hell they're going to dream up for the country because by damn, no matter what their evil, they always get away with it.

2. Wow, that's going to be a hard concept for
me to relate to my grands. I know what you mean, it is a fact of life - sometimes.

Hope they have the guts to stick to their principles, if as a family we are able to instill them with real values.

7. You're telling me! I was pondering relating that concept to my
15 yo son. It's tough to do.

4. My point exactly.
We did many things in the House that would have reduced that rate, but the Republicans stalled or killed them in the Senate so that the economy would be bad for this election.

Bad faith, bad actors, rewarded for it.

6. Again, exactly.
Bad behavior rewarded. They never have to pay consequences. They lie, they attack, they fear-monger, they face no consequences, and yet they're sitting pretty.
