If the Dems don't oppose anything, are they really an opposition party?

I guess this is just a modern variation of the "If a tree falls in a forest" theme.

They rolled over on Iraq, rolled over on the use of the Filibuster, rolled over on the Bankruptcy Bill, rolled over on John Roberts' nomination.

Who wants to bet that they'll roll over for the next Torquemada that Bush nominates for SCOTUS?

1. Then you should not oppose the Republicans either.

After all, they confirmed Ginzburg 97-0 in 1993, so that makes them the same as Democrats, so why do you spend all this time looking for an opposition party when the Republicans are the same as the opposition party to begin with?
