Have the Democrats actually accomplish anything?

[Scataphagos]

Quote from Scataphagos:

The only things the Dems ever had any intention of accomplishing was government run health care... it's the keystone to Socialist control and power. And considering the Dems will get SLAUGHTERED in the '10, election.... it shows us just how rabid they are about cementing this Progressive power play into America's culture.

After that, look at the objectives of Andy Stern and SEIU...

Beyond that, the Dems care for nothing except maintaining power.

I choose Madison over Marx... and if you give a crap about your childrens' future, you will too.

For a few around here, when the democrats are on the verge of accomplishing something, they are thugs and socialists, but when they're not on the verge of accomplishing something they are ineffectual.

When Obama first ran, I said he was a hologram....all sizzle and no steak. Except for 2 presidents since Nixon, we've had a habit of electing the sizzle. The 2 exceptions were Reagan and Clinton. The were the most pragmatic. They knew when to compromise and HOW to compromise. Obama is an idleaogue of the worst sort....he believes his own bullshit. To him compromise is defeat. A true leader knows that politics is all about compromise.

Yet in one year he did all this

1.Health insurance for kids


Job loses

Stock Market

3.Both wars will be over within the next 3 years.All marines are out of Iraq,combat troops to be out within a year

4.Less then 20 terrorist fatalities,Bush had almost 4,000 in this same time period

5.Soon 30 million Americans will have access to health care.Insurance companies will no longer be able to deny health coverage,cancel policies when people get sick,wrongly deny claims etc

To be fair, any administration was going to spend the stimulus money. And the world's economies were doing the same, so the US doing it didn't really save them. And it's a very bitter pill, because the taxpayer is paying for the stimulus, and the bailout.

Money pump accomplished that... would have been the same under McCain.

So your saying if the Democrats pass the HC bill you won't consider the Republicans ineffectual?

And are you also saying if the Democrats don't pass the HC bill you won't think that the Republicans are obstructionist thugs?

Richter, are you sure you don't function exactly like the people you despise?

What the Democrats probably will accomplish is amnesty for 20 million people who are breaking our immigration laws. Having put the world on notice that America never really enforces its immigration laws we will get another 30 million illegal immigrants after that. This will give corporate America the cheap labor it wants, ensuring that working class American citizens will never see a job with a living wage again.

When the left unites with big business to screw the average American citizen, they're bound to succeed.
