But you persist in blaming the Republicans for the mess we have at this time. Where are the corrective programs and the desire for a less corrupt government? It has been 7 months that the Democrats have held the majority in both houses and yet little has been done to try to control the Bush Administration; lots of meaningless suggestions but nothing solid.
The Republicans have solidly blocked any action from getting through the Senate that did not meet karl Rove's approval.
The Republicans in theSeante have voted solidly to uphold Bush's veto.
What, exactly would you have the Democrats do? Would you have the 50 Democrats cast 67 votes to override Bush's veto?
Would you have the 50 Democrats cast 61 votes to end Republican fillibusters?
What? And, for a change for everyone on this site who declare Bush's failures to be all the Democrats fault,
make sure your numbers add up.And, by the way, I'm saying 50 because Joe Lieberman, while he caucused with the Democrats to give them a "majority", has voted consistenly along the White House line, even to protecting Gonzalez, so he is a Republican as much as Zell Miller ever was.
Or is that the Democrat's fault also?
