6. We expect more from Dems than stopping Dubya's Social Security "reform"
Dubya's agenda is clicking right along in Congress--

class action lawsuit "reform"...check
drilling in ANWR...check
bankruptcy "reform"...check
end of the dreaded "death tax"...check (passed in House, expected to pass in Senate)

next up...

Dubya's energy bill
medical malpractice "reform"

What are the Democrats saving themselves for?!?

I applaud MoveOn for pointing out that the Democratic whip marches in lockstop with the banks and credit card companies. The Democrats missed a major opportunity to distinguish themselves from the Rethugs when they enabled and voted for this one-sided bankrtupcy "reform" bill--which Dubya will be signing into law tomorrow!

Democrats need to fight for average working Americans who are preyed upon by banks and credit card companies with exorbitant late fees and usurious interest rates. Last year alone they raked in over $10 billion profit in late fees, This ought to be unacceptable to the "party of the people."
