So the contention is that even though the Democrats hold power everywhere it’s still the fault of the Republicans that the Democrats aren’t passing better reform?
Maybe if they had just a tincy-wincy bit more power they’d actually do it?
I’m not sure this is really the change people believed in…I don’t see it as Obama’s fault - I think he’d be for much bigger reform if his party would have his back, but they’re not doing it.
So…there’s a Democratic majority in the senate, there’s a Democratic majority in congress and a Democratic President…and yet, the failure to pass a decent health reform bill is still the Republicans fault. Maybe the Democrats need to man (person) up and pass what they really believe in, IF in fact they do. I see people just as quick to bow to lobbyists, even if some of them are different lobbyists.
The Democrats spent plenty enough years passing basically everything Bush asked for, for the war, with nary a peep - so why can’t they manage to pass something they apparently deeply believe in now they have a majority everywhere it counts?
This cartoon does nothing but project. C’mon Democrats. Man up and pass a decent bill while you have power in the senate, congress and a Democrat President.
