One of the major accomplishments is preventing the Republicans from wrecking this country further than they have. President Obama doing an exceptional job as well.

Funny that everything was going pretty darn well until around January 2007 when the dems took control of congress.

So, do you have any legit accomplishments of your party then?

Since you want to compare your current party against the previous party, what have they done for America in the last 3 years?

Surely you feel they have done something other then what you posted.

How can they run this November with zero accomplishments under their belt and expect to win with only 20% of Americans being liberal?

Good one.

I'm beginning to look on those years with nostalgia myself.

The real party of NO, the demNOcrats cannot even come up with a single major accomplishment that they can run on in November?

Now that is pretty bad when a party runs the country for 3 1/2, promises to fix all the previous parties problems and ends up making things worse instead because they are to new party of " I did nothing ".

Dems= Formerly known as the party of Hell No are now

The DO NOTHING party.

That seems to be the typical answer for everything now. It would be worse. Stop and think people its not like Obama is going to come out and admit " Hey I increase the debt spent a lot of your money and my policies are a failure.

Never mind that the whole purpose of the bill was to lower our medical expenses.

so you're complaining about your premiums going up ... well, do you have private insurance? You're complaining about a private for profit business raising your premiums? Private for profit businesses can do whatever the heck they want. Shoot, I bet they'll raise 'em even higher when the fake healthcare reforms go into effect.

Ain't capitalism grand???

Easy one.

Change for the sake of change is not good.

Change in the wrong direction is not good.

Their changes is not what the majority of Americans want. We do not want a socialistic nation like Obama and the dems want us to become.

I ignored the HC and Financial reform post because they are not accomplishments, they are scams with hidden parts and that the majority of us were and are against.


What have they done since 2007 that has been great for the majority of Americans then? 3 1/2 years surely someone could have a long list by now you would think.

Since election time is getting close maybe the dems here would like to share something your party has done for Americans in the last 3+ years.

So far, nothing in this entire post.

WHAT HAVE THE DEMS DONE FOR THE AVERAGE AMERICAN IN THE LAST 3 YEARS?


Anything?

Come on folks, they ran on the idea they could change things and make lives better, have they? Or have they collected a paycheck and done nothing at all for the average American?

The recent earthquake in New Zealand moved part of the Earth 11 feet to the right, in a geologic process that took many decades to unfold.

The Democrats have moved America all the way from the left to the right in three short years.

With the election getting closer and closer you would think that there would be a long list of major accomplishments since they have been in office for 3 1/2 years.

Why should anyone who has failed on all promises be rewarded with 4 more years when they have zero accomplishments and total and complete control for 1 1/2 years of those 3 1/2 years?

If anyone of us who have totally failed to do our job we would have been fired by now.

So no one has a list of major accomplishments that the dems can run on?

I keep hearing what is the rep plans? Well, what the heck is the dems plans if they did not follow through with all those big promises from 2006?
