The Democratically Controlled Congress: Getting Nothing Done, Everyday They Don’t Have Off

The Democrats had a pretty elaborate plan coming in to office. They were going to do all these things that the Republicans wouldn’t do, or didn’t do. For voters, this would be the “change” that they wanted.

Well, it is almost May of 2007, and they have accomplished almost nothing. It seems that they have spent the majority of their time fighting the President on the War in Iraq. Now I realize that Democrats are perfectly entitled to have a difference in ideas of how we should be fighting the war. In fact, I think that the conflicting ideas are good, hopefully it will lead to a better solution for all. However, Democrats don’t have a 2/3 majority and the President has vowed to veto any spending bill that attaches a time table.

So why are they spending so much of their time devoted to this very bill that there is no way in hell that they are getting passed.  I just do not understand why they can’t spend their time on something else.  Even if they are passing bills that I don’t agree with, at least they will be doing something productive.  The only time that they seemed concerned with is going against the President.

Good job Dems.  But seriously, keep this up and you will insure a Republican victory in ‘08.  So thanks; your ensuring that we get the lesser of two evils.
