Not much got accomplished. Imagine if he had the nuclear option back then, roads got rebuilt, 13,000,000 more jobs added working on infrastructure, economy booming and it would spell doom for the GOP. As it is, the GOP just got rewarded for being lazy and clueless. Thank you Harry for being such a fine gentleman. When GOP bullies run roughshod you will see.

As for our President, he didn't hire folks of our viewpoint to his cabinet, just the same old crowd of war mongers conservative ilk. Tell me, did Bush stock his cabinet with Liberals?
