rule: Dems are mostly unwilling to press anything meaningful that Repugs object to. Another example: when a 2009 DHS report identifying domestic right-wing extremist groups as posing the greatest threat to America, its people and government, an even greater threat than posed by Islamic extremist groups, was released, Congressional Repugs went totally ape-shit and that issue went away. I suspect little has hereinafter been done to counter that threat considered greater than the threat posed by Islamic extremist groups, but Repugs have no problem with expending $100s of billions annually to thwart the Islamic extremist threat and don't even acknowledge the other threat 'cause, imo, they are a part of that threat. A third example is failure to have pushed for some reasonable gun control legislation, but that would have gone no where 'cause Repugs would have blocked any such heretical nonsense.
