indeed, snark, indeed

But how can you say that only Republicans never work with Democrats when Democrats are the exact same thing?

I'm not trying to say that one side is better than the other but wow. No one works together. So it's not just Republicans

[thebdonski]

I would argue that Dems give in to Republicans way more. Just look at Clinton- half of his bills were straight out of the Republican hand book. You would NEVER see Bush trying to help the ACLU or welfare recipients.

[The45Reason]

@thebdonski no you wouldn't see bush help people that dont want to help themselves....do you feel that drug testing welfare recipients?...b/c i think it would show more people getting welfare ( our tax dollars) are on drugs and spend ( our tax dollars) on drugs. And they know if they continue to have these bastard children that they can continue to spend ( our tax dollars).

"even if the democrats had won, the iraq war would still have happened"

won in 2000? al gore would have invaded iraq after 9/11? ridiculous. ya don't have jack to back up idiot assertion & suggesting clinton had war plans he'd hand off to gore for execution. ROTFL.

[apbrit2009]

the republicans won't let Palin run in '12

she lost them a lot of votes in '08, why would they take her back?

[apbrit2009]

actually, the second iraq invasion was being planned before the first was even over, in the days of the first bush, and continued with clinton

9-11 was seen as a good excuse to start the war, as there was a huge surge in patriotism

even if the democrats had won, the iraq war would still have happened

[tessler6868]

um. well, if they can't competently run the country but still leave us record deficits, what's "in their heart" doesn't matter much, eh? same is true of my plumber and mechanic. if they can't do the job, overcharge me & lie about it - fool me once, shame on them; fool me twice, shame on me. and, btw, they have NO moral compass or regard for constitution. at least reagan had excuse of alzheimers. your boys now are just evil posers blathering righteousness... the anti-christ? ;).

[tessler6868]

dems filibustered?? you're gonna have to back that up. and you can't.

[Zachattack2]

Why is it so hard to believe that Conservatives are more correct and factual on issues, not to mention making more of their political and philosophical decisions based on moral and principle of right and wrong?

[Zachattack2]

They had votes for a filibuster - and that was all they needed, which they used at EVERY turn. You need 50 to stop one and the GOP didn't have 60.

[tessler6868]

democrats didn't have the votes, you silly man! do you know even basic arithmetic? so complain to republicans who broke ranks for anything bush wanted but didn't get for 6 YEARS!

[tessler6868]

lol. so you DO get your info from talk radio and rightie websites... well, if you must be "right", you must be "right" (hard flyin with only "right"-wing, tho ;)
