the 'democrats' or SOME democrats. unlike the rightwingnuts, dems tend not to march in lockstep.that one crack me up everytime I see it. Just what the hell do you call the Democrat control Congress doing JUST NOW.??
and the big question, for the uninformed lunatics like you who absolutely hate this country, they've been in power for two years, and bush was never tried for anything was he? cheney"
i'm sorry you hate this country so much. now run off and stop whining.

so much dishonesty and hostility jilly dear. tsk tsk
Oh, let me explain. It's really quite "simple", even for a 'simpleton".
Lockstep is when every single Republican votes against the American people or apologizes to BP.
Democrats have a difficult time getting 60 votes for two reasons. Republicans vote against the American people, once again, "in lockstep" because they want to bring down the "black" man in the "WHITE" House, and the second reason?
It's so simple. Really, I thought you would have figured it out.
Democrats are a "coalition" party. They are not all white and Christian and of a similar education the way 90% of the Republicans are. Democrats are made up of "everyone else". They are diverse and have to work together.
I don't know how to say it any more, well, "simple". It's right there. You can look Democrats in the face and see "diversity".
