Just one big friggin’ game to these people… and all at our expense.

Yeah, but Nancy and Harry, republicans ARE preaching it, and people are listening to THEM. You both continue to sound like ineffective congressional leaders. Some are even laughing at you. Now take the money’s you’ve earmarked for education, health, “emergency” funding for border security, foreign aid, drought relief and a food program for women and children, and hand it over to Bush’s pals. They’re going to get it, and you’re gonna wind up with egg on your faces, anyways. Just do it!

Or, you could step down and allow someone with a backbone in that WILL stand up to these republican fucks!

The difference between Bush and Democrats amounts to only about 2 percentage points and is dwarfed by Bush’s $196 billion request for operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. But Bush has adopted a hard line, and his veto pen gives him great leverage, especially as Congress races to complete its work and adjourn for the year.
