Not only Biden, but the liberal media as well are playing the blame game

when my leadership does something that I need to hold them accountable for, I certainly will. Nothing that Reid or Pelosi has done since assuming their leadership roles has earned my displeasure. Everybody was saying how divisive and damaging Howard Dean would be to the party and all he did was orchestrate a nationally coordinated congressional campaign that swept the republicans out of power in congress. What would YOU like me to hold my leadership accountable for?
I see Nancy Pelosi announcing her 100 hour agenda and accomplishing it. I see Harry Reid holding fast against continuing to allow Bush to run his stupid war with business as usual and no congressional oversight. I see democratic leadership standing up to Bush and not giving him a blank check for more of the same in Iraq.
And if you really want to earn my enmity, compare me to that asshole RSR just one more time. that will certainly seal the deal.
I have tried to remain cordial with you throughout... comparing me to him is the biggest possible insult you could possibly throw my way. I would suggest and request that you don't do it again.
Biden's point is that the republican party in the last 12 years or so has been responsible for the mean tone in American politics... and that mean spirited nature has spread throughout society..... now maybe it was in society first and the republican party is merely a reflection of it, but I don't think so. I know that, in Maine, for example, Bill Cohen and George Mitchell were not only senators on opposite sides of the aisle, they were close friends who collaborated on a novel, Men of Zeal ... that sort of iter-party comraderie is dead and I say that it died with Newt and Ken Starr. Others can claim other beginnings.... they are welcome to it...but it doesn't really matter who started it at this point.... it is the way we do politics these days, and clearly, the side that offers the olive branch first gets their legs chopped off.
Oh bull. All liberalism has ever been is personal attacks. They havent had an original idea in 40 years. Who exactly is calling their political opponents racists, bigots, homophobes, stupid, nazis as a main part of their template? Who made up the bull about Republicans wanting to starve children? Who blamed Republicans for the Oklahoma City Bombing? Who was calling Reagan stupid?
Please the fearmongering and personal assasination on the left has been going on since the 60s and you know it.

What was accomplished?
What has been signed into law?
All the bills are held up in your own conference committees
what has been accomplished? exactly what the Speaker set out to accomplish. She has no control over the Senate. This is just further proof to the american people that we need to elect more democratic senators to go along with the solid democratic house. Pelosi did what she said she would do....unlike Newt who failed to deliver on most of his contract.....
I said they have done nothing that has earned my displeasure. I would not expect you to agree. And trust me.... if anyone has a right to "gag", it is ME who can and ought to "gag" at Bush and Cheney and Rummy and Gonzo and Rove and Asscroft and and and...... it takes a set to complain about the quality of MY party's leadership given that team of morons for your side.
Typical of libs
Good intentions are more important then actual results
BTW- Dems run both the House and Senate
These clowns cannot agree on anything
The right of course is totally blameless. No personal assassination there. What a big crock of steaming bullshit.
Im simply refuting his assertion that its the rights fault when his own party has been doing it for 40 years. If conservatives are going to be attacked, I think they have ever right to fight back. They havent done nearly the things liberals have done.
Not good intentions. good results. Democrats in the House of Representatives set out to accomplish things and they accomplished exactly what they set out to.
dems do not have a filibuster proof majority in the senate...
do you understand how the senate works?
I would suggest that whitewater jenniferflowers travelgate filegate vincefoster pauljones monicalewinsky impeachmentshowtrial would make that bolded statement above pretty much BULLSHIT

So what has been "accomplished"?
NOTHING!
Given how all Dems want to do is fuck over taxpayers and the military that is a good thing
what has been accomplished was exactly what speaker pelosi said she was going to accomplish. she showed America that democrats can do what they say they are going to do....and that we don't make promises we cannot keep.
did you ever answer my question concerning whether or not you understood how the senate worked and how its rules allow the minority to stop the majority from passing whatever it wants.....much like we used the same rules when we were in the minority to stop Bush from nominating wackos as judges.
again...we are not talking about the senate. the republicans in the senate can stop any democratic initiative. America knows that (well, most americans with some semblance of intelligence know that - you obviously don't fall into that category). America knows that the demcorats in the house of representatives set out an agenda. they accomplished it. Unlike Newt and his contract on america...he only accomplished about half of that.
