    Look it’s a “RINO” out from under cover!
    Or is it a lying sack of crap?

    I can’t tell the difference, can you?

    Maybe, but it’s all not peaches & cream on the LibDem side.

    “From the standpoint of the Congress, there’s only so much that we can absorb and do at one time,” Sen. Daniel Inouye (D-Hawaii), the chairman of the Appropriations Committee, said Tuesday. “To maintain a schedule like the one we’ve got at this moment, throughout the year, I don’t know if it will be healthy.”

    “Everybody has to bring something to the table,” said Indiana Sen. Evan Bayh, a leader of a 15-member caucus of conservative and centrist Democrats. “That doesn’t mean that you have to postpone your aspirations forever. But until we’re through this crisis and growth has resumed, there’s going to be some belt-tightening that’s necessary.”

    “You are going to see some of that happen naturally,” said Sen. Jim Webb (D-Va.), explaining that some of Obama’s agenda — such as climate change — may fall by the wayside because there’s not enough support for it, not because it’s too much to tackle.“This isn’t going to be an automatic ‘yes’ vote for a lot of people,” Webb said.

    Just saying………………………………..

    I think it is safe to say it is a lying sack of crap trying to get elected. You can only tell if they are RINOS or not once they get into office. So hopefully we will never know for sure.

    Well one thing’s for sure, if he’s trying to be a republican moderate, he’s probably screwed. The GOP seems uninterested in those sissy mealy-mouthed moderates these days.

    Did you have a point, there, Joker?

    Shh, Duros. It’s not polite to call attention to it. Besides, most of the time he wears a hat so no one will notice it.

    Oooh, my bad.

    I know a doctor who could take care of that hump.

    Saying what, exactly? That there are adults on “the LibDem side” who recognize that not everything can be fixed at once and it might take some time?

    What is so complicated?
    The post was about Repubs. ‘running to Obama’
    My comment was that yes, that is probably right, but there is also a bit of dissension on the Dem. side.
    Get it now?

    Get it now?

    Yes. You got nothin’.

    See, unlike the republicans, Democrats are not olbigated to march in lock step with the President. They can even *gasp* DISAGREE WITH HIM SOMETIMES!

    So you’re acknowledging that a) Repubs are hypocrites and b) not all Dems agree with Obama.

    So glad to see we won’t be hearing any more “Kool-Aid” comments from you.

    No, I’m saying that a lot of Republicans are weak-pieces-of-$hit (which is why I left that party years ago)and a couple of Democrats aren’t ObamaSheep.
    Don’t worry, the Kool-Aid comments will continue to be appropriately dished-out.

    Then we won’t be seeing any, or you’re a liar.
