but they were, all under the protection of....Mr. Reid.

9. He's filibustered more Democratic bills than Republican bills.
Edited on Mon Feb-22-10 09:35 PM by w4rma
In fact, has he *ever* helped to filibuster a Republican bill?

That's my litmus test.

12. Stop that.
There are a few republicans who have voted more with Democrats on important issues than Nelson. Most of us here understand that we don't base our respect nor opinions on one or two items, most of us realize that nobody agrees with any person 100% of the time.

Nelson--for that matter, both of them--is/are self-serving creeps who wouldn't know a Democratic principle if it bit him/them on the arse. So please, your snark is not warranted.

10. Anymore?
I doubt he ever was. He - and every other false "Democrat" should be charged with fraud.

15. Probably.
Ever been here? Lots of centrist Dems around here. It's kind of depressing.

16. Nope, can't say I have.

Been all along the East Coast and plenty of islands but never the midwest or west. I imagine it is a good deal more conservative then the East.
