Why are you blaming Republicans. They have no control of what is presented by the Democrats or have you forgot that the House and Senate is a RAT pack.

This highlights the HUGE opportunity that McCain missed in the debate last night:

When Hussein smugly and sarcastically mentioned the unbridled spending of the Bush 8 years, the obvious retort should have been:

Senator, even the most radical of liberals must be aware that the ultimate power to spend (or not to spend) is entirely the Congress'; Read the freaking Constitution!

Sure you can demagogue blaming the president, but we all know better!

Uh, right, good line, and true as well, but 6 of the past 8 years our guys have been controlling Congress.

The GOP Congress is not blameless in this mess. Our guys betrayed us by passing a bunch of pork and expanding government. By all means we should applaud them when they try to reverse this socialist deal, but I remember the craven collaboration with the spenders and wasters and I do not trust them as far as I can throw them.

Always remember we need to be heard, LOUDLY. Because despite the "friendly" letter after their name and state, these guys will screw us if there is benefit for them and we do not hold their feet to the fire. Vigilance, people.
