When Bush was in power, Congress either rubber stamped everything he asked for, or else whined about his policies and THEN rubber stamped them.

Now that Obama is in power, the Congress is starting whining in full effect. Then they go along.

Whatever happened to the concept of balance of power?

If you debate the party in power, if you dissent, you're labeled a racist and a fascist now. Homeland Security has determined that the opposition party is full of terrorists...

Obama is even considering the option of conducting witch hunts against his political foes. Show trials and imprisonment for ideological differences.

Oh please. How quickly the partisans want to forget. 1996 in the repub house and in 2007 under Bush.

There has never been opposition party (Repubicans vs. Democrats). The question is only how government positions are allocated plus tiny policy differences.

The "opposition party" hasn't had a voice (from either side) in quite a while, in my opinion. It is more "Hey, that's not MY way" parties.

Come the Revolution, there will be changes........bwaaahaaaahaaaaahaaaa!
