Yep, the right will do anything at any cost to derail anything the

what it will do.


It seems arrogant of you to assume that nobody can have a truly opposing

Show me where I've said that someone can't have an opposing point of

Never happened. I only say that people are lying or uninformed when
they are indeed lying or uninformed.

Nah, the "nuclear option" would be a total shutout. Remember how the
Republicans tried that just a few years ago? Maybe it's just what goes
around, comes around.

No, it was Senator Jim DeMint.

Hey, I never said it was a big deal. I did use it to dispute John's

both sides". I don't buy it. IMO, the Republicans would vote No on
anything the Democrats proposed.

I know this is really complicated for you, but it was a Democrat caucus.
This claim of the Republicans being "shut out" is complete hog wash. A
significant part of the ongoing process is the search for the mythical
bipartisanship.

Opinions are like...

The Dems should try it. Then what you're saying may hold some water.
You like the current health bill. Do you know what's in it? Or do you
just blindly accept Reid's statement that it's good for you?

How often have I heard you Dems talking about the Republicans blindly
following something. What the hell do you call this fiasco?
