When the Dems ran the House, they would lock Republican congressmen out of attending committee meetings, provided Republicans with a fraction of the staff the Dems now enjoy as the minority party, and made it clear to lobbyists that any financial support of Republican congressmen would be the kiss of death for items of legislation that the lobbyists wanted passed. And let's not forget the cover up of massive corruption and scandals like Barney Frank's boyfriend having sex with him in the congressional gym and running a male prostitution ring from Frank's home. A Republican would have been removed from Congress for such misconduct. Of course there was Jim Wright's phony book sales to Teamsters, the Rottenkowski shenanigans, etc. It wasn't a plantation under the Democrats...it was the debauchery of Rome under Nero.

Right On! So why does GW let them off of the hook by his favorable mentioning?

W worked with moderate Dems in Texas as governor. He somehow believes that the same bipartisan outreach will work with moonbat Dems in D.C. Why he believes this after 5 years of mudslinging by the Dems is beyond me.
