MJ-GA: Dems now control both the house and senate...BUT we are still in Iraq...paying 4 bucks a gallon for gas..facing a recession...Thanks Dems
Gee, MJ, do you think the reason that no important legislation is getting passed is that Republicans have set a RECORD for the number of threatened filibusters, requiring 60 votes in the Senate for cloture? Do you have any idea at all what is actually going on in your government, or is the extent of the political knowledge you have anally inserted each day by Rush Limbaugh?
Of course you want to blame this on the Democrats, but even with very low congressional approval ratings, Dems are preferred to be in charge by a wide majority. Hell, close to 30 Republican House members are quitting, and several Republican Senators. Why don't we wait and see if we can get a 60 seat majority in the Senate in 2008? Then you'll have something to whine about.
EDITED TO ADD: I've been informed by isabellah-1 that MJ-GA is a woman, but I stand by that picture. Georgia girls are kinda hairy.
