Re: Government Except in this instance, there is also a Republican majority in Congress, which means anything the current administration wants, they get. We need to have a Democratic president and Republican Congress, or vice versa. |

| Yes
Just like the democrats had for 40 years after WW 2. The period we watched our country go to hell in a handbasket, thanks to the liberals.
Now, you want to whine because your heroes are out of power because, basically, the american people got sick of being lied to all the time, (never mind fear mongering) especially in election years and having their civil rights and property rights whittled away at by pressure groups, lobbyists for same and eco nuts.
What? You think either party is any different from each other? Politics is nothing but a power game and they are ALL basically the same: Rich lawyers and businessmen who have connections with the power elite. NONE of those people really believe much, if any, of the crap they feed us, democrat or republican. It's just a strategy to convince us they are nice people who love us and feel our pain. And, anyone with half a brain, swimming in the shark infested waters of todays society KNOWS that you dont get to a place of power by being a loveable fuzzball and being nice. You get there by being one of the sharks and eating opponents.It's just common sense. If you fall for the crap they hand you, you deserve to get stepped on. And they WILL step on you.
Yet, in the end, any law that is enacted is NEVER in OUR best interests. Only theirs. Ours is just to obey and pay. |

Re: Government Wrong. Basically nothing is getting done because neither side has a strong majority. Just because the republicrats have a small majority doesn't mean it's easy sailing for them.
Personally, I agree with the guy who said it was two sides of the same rotten coin. They ALL need to be replaced. |

| Which is what I've been saying for a couple of months now.
Basically its not which party, etc, etc. Its our government in general. We do need to start with a clean slate, but even then we aren't guaranteed any difference. We just need people in power who know good wholesome people and who listen to constituents. You can't tell me someone has "good" ethics/morals and at the same time they take 'bribes' from big business, etc. |
