Yeah, now that I think about it, it's probably taken out of context and is really just a friendly euphemism.

Yeah, like Congress and the Executive Branch are not supposed to have any conflicts, and are supposed to be one happy bunch of people who agree on everything...

Balance of powers? Ring any bells?

The Executive Branch was designed to be in conflict with Congress, and "keeping score" is just a sports euphemism that underlines the inherent conflict between the two branches.

Personally, I think it's a good thing that some patriotic Democrats are opting on a big fat NO for the massive spending bill.

Party unity is dead

David Shuster's Hypocrisy Watch has a great piece on Karl Rove's lies and spin which is regurgitated in the original post (OP) of this thread.

All you need to do to see what obama is all about is turn down the sound on your TV watch his actions. Nuff said.
