How Is It We Miss This Obvious Truth

[ThomWV]

We have contol of the Congress, not by much but we do have it.

We can not make him do the things we want him to do but we sure as hell can stop him from doing the things that he wants to do.

Stop this war. Cut off the money.

1. I'm not sure who we voted for in 06!!

2. The flip side of the same coin

3. Why would the Warmongers in Congress stop their money making machine?

4. We do and we don't ...have controlof Congress that is...

Counting bodies who were elected as Democrats is one thing but when you start counting the votes you come up with a different set of figuers....ou see we haved Yellow Dogs, Blue Dogs, Dinos and DLC'ers...The Yellow Dogs can be counted on to vote and be proud of the D behind their name...ow the Blue Dogs really want to vote that way but they have been convinced the only way they can get reelected is if they remain bipartisan and vote accordingly. Dinos are the ones who don't have the guts to tell the truth. DLC'ers Play both sides against the middle, they have convinced them selves it is their right to be elected because they are smarter then the other the groups, voters only count at election time....the rest of the time they don't know you and don't care about who put them in office...

I once attended an event for a DLC'er who once was a Yellow Dog. I wore my Yellow Dog pin proudly,he noticed it right off and told me he had one too, I told him it was to bad he no longer wore it because he probably wouldn't get the votes needed to win...and he didn't. to bad it don't happen more

6. Then at the very least we need to get RID of the Dino's and the DLC'ers

Is there a definitive list anywhere of who belongs to what group?

[Tippy]

9. Go to....

<www.dlc.org/> Nnot sure if there is an official list for Dinos but just think Joe Lieberman if there was a list he would be on top....

5. When Peloisi made such a big fuss over getting the fanciest office

in Washington I knew she had other priorities than the country..I have not been proved wrong..

[Donnachaidh]

7. I don't think that's entirely true

Wasn't the office in question being used by Cheney, or some other puke that wasn't supposed to be there in the first place? I'll have to look it up, but it was the sort of powerplay that ANY Speaker of the House *should* do, especially after 6 years of being shat on by overzealous repukes.

I think ANY Democratic Speaker would have done the same. In retrospect, yes, she's been a useless Speaker, but judging her beforehand on that one move is mean-spirited. My opinion, YMMV. :shrug:

8. The Dems are enablers. No doubt. They care more about cushy jobs

with great perks than they care about representing their constituents. Sure, they throw a few bones
our way once in a while, but when it comes to standing up for the principles of the country, most Dems are busy doing something else.

10. the real "war" is the class war

and most of the congressional "democrats" are on bush's side, not ours.
