Once again, you completely missed my point . . . But I am not surprised given your partisanship bias and your lack of knowledge regarding how government and politics "work" in this Country.
Given some of your comments on ET ( and lack of grammar ), I would guess that you are quite young, and not originally from the United States. I have noticed that you tend to make claims and statements that are quite general in tone, with absolutely no facts in evidence to substantiate such claims, assumptions, and generalizations, and yet with a specific bias.
Not once did you address the suggestion that I made about the power of an effective leader in the White House, as opposed to a WEAK leader ( Bush ) that rarely used his VETO pen and who allowed Congress to ride roughshod. Was the depth of my point too difficult for you to comprehend, from an intellectual standpoint? Otherwise, why would you shy away from addressing it?
Instead, you go off on some sort of tangent ( and naive rant ) about Democrats in Congress not willing to further their careers . . . and instead "more interested in proving that Bush was a dumbass instead of actually helping their political careers."
You must be quite naive to think that people like Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi and Barney Frank and the rest of the Democratic Congressional leadership saw their political careers aligned with anything having to do with George Bush. Were they in jeopardy of being voted out? Of course not.
So why would they accomodate George Bush and the lowest approval rating of a President in modern history?
You must be incredibly ignorant of how government and politics work.
Why you'd think that Pelosi and Reid and Frank & Company would do anything to help prevent an already "sinking ship" is absolutely beyond me. Their political "goodwill" was not tied to Bush in any shape or form whatsoever. It was tied to whoever the Democratic Presidential nominee was going to be! - - - That's not an excuse. It's not a lie. It's simply a political FACT. Why you can't fathom that is absolutely beyond me, and most people here on ET.
But leave it to you to ASSume and infer that I am happy with what has happened in the Democratic Congress over the past 2 years . . . I can quite frankly say the opposite is true. But I understand how politics work, as opposed to the naive generalizations that you continually present here on ET.
And for what its worth, until this year I was a registered Republican for 28 years. So congratulations for making yet another absurd ASSumption about the political party that I associate with.
Have a nice Weekend.
