Don’t blame this on Bush. This is not a new phenomenon. I simply do not know hat to make of this anymore. I have seen this behavior among Republicans before. They genuinely seem to be afraid of Democrats and genuinely seem to believe, deep down, that Democrats are the rightful owners of the whole political system and that their role is simply to sit quietly in the corner, do their work, and try not to get the Democrats mad at them. It is sickening. There is absolutely NO FIGHT in these guys whatsoever. It’s pathetic. It’s like my tagline, they seem to have a battered spouse mentality, they just sit there totally stripped of any self respect and take any beating dished out to them.

I don’t think it is that at all. I think they are gentlemen and think that that is how you are supposed to act all the time. Even when being attacked by a rabid dog.

Why not? He isn't even man enough to defend against the lies against him, or even defend Gonzalas. Throughly disgusted with him and this party of pnssy's!

Agree.

I think most forget that the GOP won the House in 1994 due in large part to the revolutionary, Newt Gingrich. He had a vision and dragged the House GOP with him to victory.

Prior to that time, as now, the GOP was/is happy to sit cowering in a corner and thank the rat’s for a few table scraps.

Our republican officials could give the British 15 Hostages lessons on spinelessness....
