The difference between "us" and "them"
Within hours after Dean making his comments, some of our Dem congresscritters were tripping over each other trying to distance themselves from the comments that Dean made.
Hours after Sensenbrenner made a public mockery of our government--insulting every American, not one Repub has apologized.

1. The Repug brownshirts have solidarity. Dems want to play
nice, it's like wanting to pet the pit bull.

2. Have you guys ever watched the Canadian Parliament
Edited on Fri Jun-10-05 08:58 PM by Canadian Socialist
during Question Period? It's the best entertainment money can't buy. Everyone has to be sooo polite. But, not. e.g.

"The speaker recognizes the Honourable Member from Kicking Horse Pass."

HM from KHP, "Mr. Speaker. The Honourable Member from The Centre of the Universe raises an interesting point. I would respectfully like to disagree with her. She has whored herself out for mere ambition and ego."

"The speaker recognizes the Honourable Member from The Centre of the Universe."

HM from TCOU, "Mr. Speaker, may I humbly say that the HMFKHP lives up to his title, except for the P part."

etc.

The Canadian Parliament, like the British Parliament, but with a two drink minimum. (that joke never ceases to crack me up)
