bush f****d up and thats a fact and has poisoned the well against all republicans except Abe Lincoln and Teddy Roosevelt. The bush legacy has made internationalist fp and economic growth advocacy verboten in this go round. The dems are now the protectionsists and isolationists except when it comes to Tibet of course.

MJ, a lesson in politics from me, yes dare I say from me since your post is very partisan and consistently so.

The Republicans had 6 years to work with merely a majority. The Democrats have had only 18 months and they have to make sure that they get a super majority to get anything done.

So let us look at it from the Center. If there are people on this thread who can say that they will vote for McCain and still keep posting on this thread, it is spirit that needs to be maintained. We can't have people bashing Obama on other threads and not having the courage to do so here but instead do so mildly.

You know darn well that the Dems don't hold a 60% majority in the Senate to be able to override a filibuster or a Presidential veto. That is why there has been no progress with the 51-49 Dem majority.

But of course, you are using the Republican playbook to smear the Dems without using your own brain to see what's really going on.
