Never been so disappointed in my politically aware life. They didn't have a filibuster proof majority in the Senate, but could have made serious and lasting change for our nation. They decided to play footsie with the Democrats instead. Bush II and his "uniter and not a divider" bull****. |
Interesting point, The republicans had an opportunity to make major changes, but rather than divide this country(which it now is), the administration(probably the most criticized one in history) reached across the isle to create a bipartisanship effort(which every one wants now) that ended up not getting anything done(which is whats going to happen in the next four years). Thus the Tea Party Movement began (which is now heavily criticized by those bipartisanship members) to get things done!
Any one see a pattern here? *****, *****, *****, compromise, try to make everyone happy, you can't please them all....nothing gets done... *****, *****, *****.....
