I cannot even imagine the magnitude of the cacophonous outcry all of us would be hearing right now from every seedy nook and cranny of the main-stream media had Republicans been in control of both the White House and Congress while an unread, unscrutinized, unvetted, who-did-it-and-ran spending bill passed both houses before anyone could as much as inhale.
Democrats orchestrated a legislative drive-by shooting for the ages, with the fleetness of a goose suffering from dysentery, sending to the President's desk a hunk of burning pig-meat over a thousand pages long that no one outside of speed readers and time travelers could possibly find the time to go through before it was put up for a vote. As quickly as it appeared from the joint committee, it was shoved through the House, and by Friday evening, it was in and out of the Senate.
Just like that.
Done.
Thanks for coming.
And now, Nancy Pelosi and company are gone, scattered about - off to Rome, or wherever.
Had such a thing occurred under the watch of, say, George W. Bush, the scale of outrage and disdain that would be emanating from every Democrat able to gurgle into a live microphone would be literally unimaginable.
And because the mainstream media share a bunk and toothbrush with Obamacrats, we the people would never hear the end of it.
Just think of how many ...

I read where 0 is going on vacation as well, not even in office a month....
Hell, I'd gladly help pay for the POS to STAY on vacation.
You forgot to say: FOREVER!!
His approvals actually go up when he is out of sight, both last week and this week his favorables dove in the daily Rassmussen the more we saw and heard him.
And here we sit and take it, can I have another please? These elitist self engrandizing moronic idiot self serving pompus marxists socialists have managed to pull it off. We will now have to explain to our children why thier world is so f’d up because the scum was allowed to rise to the top without a fight. We were all to busy raising our families, working to pay the bills, doing the responsible thing while our enemies, those who we thought where representing us where plotting, sceaming, caniving and back dooring us,the American Taxpayer, we who pay the bills. I’m sick, it is time to make the donuts! 2010 can’t come soon enough
Makes me nauseous to see my Country shot down in flames in one fell swoop.
GOD DAMN these power-mad Democrats!
And throw in the spineless turncoat Republicans that squandered their own responsibility to stop them!
“Makes me nauseous to see my Country shot down in flames in one fell swoop. GOD DAMN these power-mad Democrats!”
Democrats, socialists, one and the same. When one gets right down to it, the Soviet Union ultimately DID win the Cold War, because the United States now has, at the very least, a socialist government from top to bottom.
Socialism can only survive as a dictatorship, and the Obamabots are very cool with that. And, of course, with socialism comes the requisite loss of freedom.
We have to take back our country, folks. One way or another, we have to take it back.
Republicans had 12 FOCKING YEARS to show the electorate what true conservative leadership can do to assure prosperity to our descendants. They BLEW IT! Now we have to explain to our grandkids why they’ll never see the America that once was. They’ll live with less with a government that only asks for more. Our Republic has been pissed away by idealogues. Freedom is dead.
GOD DAMN our worthless media while you’re at it!
The Republicans never had a filibuster-proof Congress. Most of the time it held only a one or two vote lead in the Senata (and in 2001 it had a tie until the traitorous “Jumpin’” Jim Jeffords defected and joined the Democrat caucus — though on the surface calling himself an Independent; and that gave the Senate to the Democrats unbtil 2003). Besides that, for six years of the Republican’s marginal control of Congress in the 1990s the presidency and the federal bureaucracy were in the hands of the Democrats. The Republicans have NEVER enjoyed the same level of control the Democrats now hold. Hell, the Democrats don’t even need the Republicans for any legislation, unless they are looking for a sscapegoat.
