right, and the republicans of the day countered that it was no big deal. now the republicans are crying and the dems say its no big deal. parties will do whatever serves their main interest, which is staying in power. demonizing the other party is just a means to that end. it happens all the time.republicans will find anything about democrats to bitch about, just like democrats found anything about republicans to bitch about. its the way of the world. its actually kind of sad though. if we would just put aside all the bullshit and actually take the time to work together, we could all achieve something great, AS A WHOLE.
