Let's not forget the Republicans
My disgust with any Dems that vote for Condi or Gonzalez is clear.

But let me say I continue to be amazed that all Republicans have no real values expect loyalty to George W. Bush and their own political future.

This government is a sham. BOTH parties are supposed to have some oppostion to whatever the good President proposes. They are supposed to represent us. Oh wait, they do. The brainwashed, selfish, I mean well but the truth doesn't matter, only the idea of truth because I'm too busy and too poor and too stupid (find an excuse) Americans that get the wars, the lies, THEY deserve.

Democracy is only as good as the people in it.

1. I don't think it's ever been this bad. The party is waaaaay
more important to them than the people they are there to SERVE.

They aren't serving us anything but dog poo.

3. Republicans Do Not Serve The People, They Serve Emperor Bush
But they're not there to serve the people, they just need the people to elect them to office. Once in office they can vote in any way that pleases them, and in accordance with their own agenda or that of the party.

There is no loyalty to constituents, no loyalty to the US Constitution, no loyalty to the United States, the only loyalty they have is to Bush.

And no we see that at least two Democratic members of the Senate, are not the great wonders that everyone made them out to be, Obama and Salazar have been very disappointing on these two nominees.

At least with Alan Keyes, the people of Illinois would have known up front what they were getting, and please no excuses about Obama being new, because that's just plain crap. As for Salazar, maybe Coors wasn't that bad of a choice after all, once again the people would have known what they were getting.

5. That's not in their job description. And its NOT what we pay them to do.

They are representatives for their constituents. We did not hire them to be bought and paid for carpet baggers and crooks.

They are responsible for this mess much more than Democrats because many seem determined to invite destruction and chaos.

THey are the ones promoting and implmenting these policies.

What a scam. I guess we do not have a hope in hell.

4. There are a couple of repugs out there who are very worried about *.
I find it interesting that such people would rather vote against decency and conscience, and true conservatism, than vote for a democrat who more closely embodies these qualities than the Shrub.
