We gotta take back a house of Congress too
It's not enough to get back the presidency! It's a start, but it's not the only thing we need. In order for the Dems to seriously get back some power, we need control of the House and/or Senate again--- anybody got some good info on how we're stacking up at this point?

2. Well, we'll need Dems in office before then
Because the freeper legions cut NASA's budget to the core... We'll need a few hundred billion $$$ to ship off a bunch of people... NASA's current budget: $13.4 billion.

3. Here, Here!
If the Dems were in charge, right now there would be investigations into: 9/11, Halliburton Contracts, Cheney's energy policy, New York and London blackouts.....and on and on and on. Unfortunately, we don't have enough Dems and those damn cons are blocking any investigations. It makes me want to: :puke:
