The Way They Think Inside The Beltway

Its an interisting commentary on the democrats and how far they have fallen from being a legitimate alternative to the Republicans, that the repeal of the presidential offshore oil drilling ban is seen as a challenge to the Democrats. The President said, “This means that the only thing standing between the American people and these vast oil resources is action from the U.S. Congress.” For many people the immidiate response to that statement is, "good." To the Republicrats in congress who look up to vermin like Joseph Liberman, this statement from the President is a challenge. If they react like they have for the last seven years they will be falling all over themselves to capitulate to the weakest of political pressures. It seems like congress still hasnt gotten the message the voters sent them in 2006, that we are sick of this shit and want some fucking balance and representation in our useless federal government.
