Would this be the very same tactic that Democrats went to court to try to stop Republicans from using over a much smaller item?

Nice of you to assume and speak for what you believe I want as usual YOU ARE WRONG.

And again, either way it was used by the Republicans, no matter if the dems TRIED to stop them, it was used.
Tit for tat is what those Idiots are about in Washington. Harry Reid missed the perfect opportunity to pass this bill last year. He got greedy by wanting to add in the Public option. The same public option that is NOT even in the bill their about the pass. Just because someone questions you or don't buy into your notions does not automatically mean we blindly accept everything that is done. I agree with parts of the bill, and there are parts of the bill I do not agree with.

Elaborate, please??

Not a very concise debate when all that's presented is "nanner, nanner....they did it too?

Did *what* too???

Can't counter-point if you don't present your points

Considering my words were clear and you chose to come back as usual with a snide remark. Here I will say it again.

Its Hypocricy to state one party is trampling on Democracy by using a procedure that has been used by Both sides. But you were WRONG in your assumption AS USUAL by speaking for what I wanted.

But its not hypocritical to try to stop Republicans from doing the exact same procedure Democrats are using? I see, you only like 1 way hypocracy and fully accepting of it if its for something you support.

There you go assuming and speaking for me again. I call them all IDIOTS because neither side can walk straight without crapping over the votes that put them into office. But hey continue with the partisian sniping.

Actually what you did was attack one for being a hypocrite while making excuses for the other.. Remember your 'tit for tat" justification? It was only a few postings ago, you should go back and re-read your postings before you talk to others about partisan sniping..

Here is my original post. I stick by what I stated. It is hypocritical to state the Dems are trampling on democracy when the republicans did the exact same thing. NOW show me where I stated one, you were WRONG. Point to where I agreed to what the Democrats are doing or where in my statement was partisan. Unlike you, I recognize that i'm supplementing the income for a bunch of IDIOTS that shouldn't even have a vote on how to scratch their azz. But again continue the partisan sniping.

I read the original posting, now twice.. It disputes nothing I said and just validates the accuracy of my response.. Enjoy your day trying to justify Democrats doing something that they field LAWSUITS to stop Republicans from doing..
