DanTien said:I fear the incoming dem leads are firebrands and not statesman/woman and have poisoned the relationship with Bush so it will be hard to sell their agenda

I'm aware that the other side "...pissed in the punchbowl of bipartisanship." to quote a phrase...but its time to be bi-partisan and are you so confident that Pelosi & Reid are the ones on the dem side to get that done...I have serious doubts...The dems could do a lot better!

yes, and its important that they serve on those committees....picked them as examples of people who are proven at working with the otherside...I'm not aware of others who could step up that don't have key spots on key committees, but I'm hoping..otherwise maybe Nancy and Reid will surprise me....brewer12345 said:Well, Rangel and Frank will be in charge of some of the most important committees, so I was under the impression that they are among they new leadership. I think Levin will be in charge of a committee, too.

...potential supoenas - maybe why Rumsfeld was let go so quickly?brewer12345 said:For several years, there hasn't been any opportunity for democrats to work with the other side because rethuglicans wouldn't share. So don't talk to me about how the democrats don't have leaders who can't work with the other side. As I said, Bush should be damned happy that the first act of the new Congress isn't a round of subpoenas.

What has happened in one day to make you abandon your hope? I have not heard any of the Dem leaders talk about revenge and payback. Quite the contrary.youbet said:Sadly, while I had hoped the Dems would take the high road and work on issues that truly need to be resolved for all of our good, they do seem to be unable to let go of their revenge and payback focus.

Stupid democrats are trying to push their green agenda by making gas unaffordable for the common workers like me!?!! It's a vast left wing conspiracy undertaken by democraps. Can't they do anything right?
