Whatever they want in this one-party country.

It looks more and more a one-party country.
By what name do we call them?
Demublicans or Republicrats?

Hi Annie! LTNS. Good to see you online.)

I’m depressed. I didn’t think I would be defeated so easily but I can’t seem to find a ray of hope.

Yep. The cross over Republicans just destroyed the entire party. Who will vote for any of them now? They're still tax and spend politicians just like the Marxists. Republican voters are the tax payers who are getting raped.

We became a 1 party system on 11/4/08. Obozo has had no defeats to speak of....and he’s likely to continue on his plan to destroy this nation - and spread chaos throughout the world.

Obama lied, the economy died.

Well, the article did say that "Obama is set to announce an overhaul of the earmark process on Wednesday."

that is AFTER he let them spend eleventy gazillion dollars and change the fabric of our society.

It finishes up last year's budget business, which stalled as Democrats feuded with former President George W. Bush.

Wow - crAP has the talking points down.

I already fired off an email to Alexander. Did they at least accept the Sessions amendment to keep E-verify in?
I, too, see very little hope.

Shelby, Bond, Inhoffe, McConnell and Cochran were the big GOP porkers on this one, so Im assuming they voted for it.

Long before that. Good Cop/Bad Cop played both ways against the public. Works like a charm.
