What I don't have time or patience for is the baiting by this poster who wants to tell me how ignorant he thinks I am in presenting these bills passed out of the House. Our party still has work to do, but I never expected their efforts to sail all the way through, given the balance of power. Some of these bills are DOA, some of them will be reworked and presented again for consideration. That's the legislative process. But to look upon the rejections of the legislation passed as the beat-all/end-all assumes that our legislators have just given up. That's what BT wants to claim. I don't see it, and BT can't prove they've abandoned these issues they worked so hard to advance this far. But, I CAN prove that there are legislators, both in the leadership and without, who are working to make their proposals and initiatives stick. What sense does it make to continually portray our party members as unconcerned and ineffective just because republicans are standing in the way? Republicans are the problem, not these Democrats who are working to advance our concerns into action or law.
