That's just it.  It's not a hatchet job....those are direct quotes and this isn't about Bush.  Don't confuse the issue here buddy

I'm not confusing the issue. Politicians taken to task on their grandious speeches.  You could pull almost any politician's speach and do the very same thing.

FWIW this Congress has done more to damage the Democratic party than any I can remember. But, to be fair there was a woman running things.

Which is why I'm supporting Ron Paul. (If Ithought Kucinich had a snowballs chance, I'd back him.)

I don't get the sarcasm Shamus but I hope I don't have a reputation on this board as die hard conservative.   I've always maintained that I am a "south park conservative"  (look it up).  

Either way I think compared the republican congress....this congress sucks.

When the republicans took power they had a bunch of bills they wanted passed and the dems obstructed them through filibuster.

Now the dems are in power in the congress and they haven't done a dam thing as far as bills that actually do something.  I'd have to look it up but I honestly believe they've past more non-binding bills then they have actual laws.

In a way this is a good thing because a weak federal govt is more power in the hands of the actual people IMHO.  I'd rather them passing non-binding resolutions than anything else.   However, they can't have it both ways.  

Even the ones they do pass are crap.  I'm pissed at the president for signing the current energy bill.  It is absolute crap compared to anything else he's ever agreed to.  It does nothing to help energy concerns and does more to F'up the market more than anything.  Actually this requires a hole nother thread.  Either way the dems aren't living up to their promises.  It's funny because they can't actually live up to their promises because the fringe groups that vote them in oppose different things.

Gunslinger, from the beginning  of this I have been responding to the propaganda of the clip and nothing  more.

It really is is a funny clip. but if you insist on saying that it is objective, well then you are a fool.

Sorry but thats it as far as I see it.

I've never said it is objective but the facts speak for themselves.  The democratic congresional leadership has not met a single promise they made over a year ago.  

The democrats are do nothing leaders.  In a way that's good......but the fact that people still vote for them is bad.

I wish they were do-nothing leaders.  Then they'd stop trying to steal my guns.

Nancy hav REALLY helped in Iraq too!

Marine Corps Cpl. David Goldich, a University of Virginia graduate who spent two tours of duty in Iraq, says Democratic attacks on the war undermined troop morale.

Cpl. Goldich, who returned from Anbar province in November after about 300 combat patrols, stated in a candid account that negative comments by Democrats had "a dramatic effect on morale, especially on troops who are otherwise indifferent and disdainful of politics in general."

"I cannot tell you how many times I have overheard Marines and soldiers talking about various inconsiderate comments made from the likes of [Sen.] John Kerry [Massachusetts Democrat], [Rep. John P.] Murtha [Pennsylvania Democrat], [Senate Majority Leader Harry] Reid [Nevada Democrat], and [House Speaker Nancy] Pelosi [California Democrat] about how we cannot win, how we should be brought home, etc.," he said.

"The Kerry comments really cemented his reputation with the troops and upset people more than anything else. It is unnerving to volunteer for service during wartime hoping to be deployed and having to listen to a politician explain how the troops need to come home, especially when we clearly have not finished what we started.

"There is a widespread perception amongst the Marines I know, even those uninterested in politics, that the Democratic Party does not want us to win in Iraq for whatever reason. This is true even amongst Democrats who still maintain the party viewpoint on almost every other issue but the war. Morale is always a tricky issue to deal with, and it is difficult to tell a Marine to buck up when he sees important people back home undercutting his primary reason for existing at the moment."

Mr. Kerry came under fire in November 2006 when he joked that soldiers in Iraq were "stuck" there because they did not study hard in school.

It is a shame the democrats who make such hurtful self-serving partisan comments that demoralize troops at war can't be tried and hung for "aiding and abetting the enemy".  I would volunteer to pull the lever dropping them myself.
