Then perhaps you are not included in the "some of you" statement.

Gridlock. It's what's for dinner.

I wonder what the press conference today will be like- and what is it for?

Is it difficult to be such a drama queen, or does it just come naturally?

If true, then it's about time!

I suspect, now that checks and balances and congressional oversight have been restored, we’ll see a lot of sudden house cleaning by the administration.

In a word? Yes!

How about comments about how the election was rigged? How about how the Bush family acts like they are American Royalty? How are his daughters excused from duty?

And, finally, how about some emotional disgust with all of the body bags being sent back here from Iraq. Those bags hold our people, our fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers.

That is disgusting to me. And, your constant remarks about Dems and how you can't imagine them keeping their word, etc. etc. That is so, ah, narrow minded? Democrat is a political stance, and, if you knew some who lied or whatever, that doesn't mean every single Dem does.

You see, that is where I, as a Dem, differ from you, a Republican. I do not lump people together and then insult them all, of course, all the while presuming that I am better.

Which is what a lot of your posts do.

Thought I'd point that out because I just don't think you get that.

I see you came out here and had a great time, people welcomed you and were eager to meet you. People are people. This constant knocking of 'dems' is really getting old. I know this is a political time but I think enough is enough.

Just my .05c

And a freakin' good morning.

I don't think I could express myself any better than this
