Does this surprise anyone? I hope you Republican turncoats who voted for a Democrat in 2006 are happy now. So what did you expect? Just wait until the Democrats completely take over the US Congress in November. This should really be great.

Democratic members of Congress will have an unique opportunity to actually pass legislation which will have a dramatic impact upon the lives of average voters, once they have more than 60 members of the US Senate.

Until the stalling and delaying tactics of Mitch McConnell and his GOP ilk are gone, no significant real change will occur in our country. It takes 60 votes in the US Senate to get anything done these days. And when the corrupt, cruel and uncaring GOP members are gone from Congress, we’ll see real change.

Vote Democratic in ‘08!

The life you save may be your own!

Earth to Timmehhh!!!: Only 9% of Americans are stupid enough to believe that anymore.

It is amazing that proponents of both national parties are so blind to the faults of their chosen group. One is the party of paternalists, parasites, and perverts. The other is the party of plutocrats, preachers, and pretenders. Politicians of both parties will eagerly feed the federal bureaucratic monster to remain in power and achieve reelection. They willingly trade the integrity of their office for political gain. On various issues they destroy the Constitution, state and local governments, families, individual rights and freedom of choice. Republicans and Democrats, alike, have reigned over massive increases in the scope, size, and spending of the federal government. Open your eyes. The corruption, greed, political manipulation, and elitism apply to both parties. As George Washington warned in his farewell address to the nation, partisanship will be our downfall.

the Bush administration couldn’t get their flagrantly unethical telecom immunity bill through a GOP-led Congress. Today they were able to finally get their wish.

I wonder if that has anything to do with Congress’s low approval ratings.

AJH, can you explain the difference in what the telecom companies and the NSA did and what your bank does when it shares your personal financial information with the IRS? How many of your phone conversations with targeted overseas terror suspects were monitored? When you sue the telecomms will you also sue your bank for violating your “civil liberties”?
