"How can we help but feel like our team is in the 9th inning, our opponent is whipping us 22-1 and the umpires refuse to inspect the otherteam's illegally weighted bats?"

Here's a thought... our team is better at the game than your team, hence it is up 22-1 in the 9th. Just a thought...

But, then again, how impotent are we that we have this majority power and seem so inept at wielding it? We can't get our judges confirmed. We can't get our tax bill through Congress. The government grows bigger. The courts get more liberal.

For someone who thinks we are ahead, 22-1, I think we act like we are clinging to a 3-2 lead while they have two men on and Armando Benitez as our closer.

Seriously, the only thing that's making the Republicans look good is how wretched the Democrats look by comparison.

For having the White House, Senate, House, (arguably) the Supreme Court, the Justice Department and many state governments (forget the media - this child is delusional), I'm not seeing the conservative agenda moved forward much.

Not that I'd rather have the Democrats in power. THEY know how to misuse the FBI, the Justice Department, the immigration service, the IRS, the FEC, the Federal Reserve, the House, the Senate, the media (which they are only now releasing their chokehold from), academia, the arts and local voting booths for their own personal benefit and socialist gain.

We may have won a few battles but we are still losing the war.

Take heart, Iwantmycountryback. Your evil Democrat minions are still winning the big one. You can go on passing out condoms, killing unborn babies, destroying our heritage and our culture, spreading AIDS, mainstreaming queers, teaching our children how to be unthinking socialists, giving our military secrets away to the Communists, kissing the asses of every tyrant and dictator you don't have the guts to confront and tearing down our country seemingly unabated. We are no match for your skill in turning America into a third-world toilet. You just need more time to accomplish your ultimate goal.
