In reply to the discussion: Reid: 'No desire' to obstruct GOP [View all]global1
(26,507 posts)For the last 6 years the Rethugs obstructed every chance they got. They used the filibuster like it was going out of style. For those same 6 years the Dems criticized them every time pointing out the damage the Rethugs were doing and the negative aspects of obstruction.
Now the tables are turned and it really puts the Dems in a bad spot if they use exactly the same tactics the Rethugs did and what they criticized the Rethugs for. I'm sure that the Rethugs thought ahead and counted on the fact that they were putting the Dems in a bad spot and that if the tables ever turned that the Dems would have to say that they were above these destructive tactics that the Rethugs used for 6 years and they wouldn't resort to those same tactics. After all how would it look?
Let's face it - the Rethugs outplay the Dems in just about everything they do. When you are a Party of no principles and filled with liars and just plain a..holes - what do you expect. They have no scruples and they get away with all their sinister tactics at the expense of the Dems and really at the expense of the American People.
Unfortunately - the American People are so pre-occupied with anything but politics - they are easily influenced by MSM because that's the easy way out instead of having to think for oneself.
As a result the American People just rewarded the Rethugs for their tactics and shot themselves in the foot. They voted against there better interests and when they finally wake up and realize what is happening right under their noses - it will be too late.
