why do I feel like the Repugs are still in control?

:shrug:

feels just the same as it was...

[rusty quoin]

1. I know I know

[whistle]

2. It could be because 1/3 of the Democrats are really DINOs

[xchrom]

3. because they are -- and because mitch mcconnell is a good

minority leader.

dems still run away from the republick party on certain issues. and that too is part of the problem.

if this keeps up -- the notion that the dems are going to sweep everything big time will be SO yesterdays news.

4. Gutless! When we threatened filibuster, the pugs chanted, "up or down vote!"

But now that we're in charge, Our GUTLESS leaders are nothing more than sycophants to an ever increasing plutocracy. :grr:

Republicans - thy enablers are GUTLESS "moderate democrats." :thumbsdown:

[Rex]

5. Because they are - Dems don't want to get anthraxed and are showing

classic symptoms of Stockholm Syndrome. IMO.

[Robbien]

6. Cause they are

don't know why

but they are

[L. Coyote]

7. Are you talking about DU?

:rofl:

[movonne]

8. Because the dems have (not all) become a bunch of whimps...this

thing with Move on is as sad as it gets...the repug condemn the ad and the dems go right along...what was wrong with telling the truth...the world in going to hell in a hand bag but they spend all day on this crap..

[me b zola]

9. Because they are

I despise cowardice. Life takes courage under the best of circumstances.

[Lerkfish]

10. exposes the dodge that dems in previous minority were powerless

since the minority republicans seem to be quite powerful enough to get their way on everything.

only three possibilities:

1. Dems are clueless at how to obstruct effectively as a minority (or intentionally ineffective)
2. Dems are clueless at how to lead effectively as a majority ( 0r intentionally ineffective)
3. Dems are beholden to the same masters as the republicans, and I don't mean the voters what brung 'em.

12. thanks

you answered the question quite succinctly.

[AuntPatsy]

11. No it isn't, no way, the people are getting more and more enraged every day

more and more citizens are awakening from their self imposed slumber and more and more citizens are one by one being touched by one of the many outrages this administration has been quilty of, I had always thought from day one, once it touches you it becomes personal, I think they foolishly believed religion to keep people in line even if they felt a need to question.

13. They obey orders from above, they are not in control, but I sure would

love to find out just who is.
