(39,909 posts)....about pointing out the Bush NEVER had 60 votes in the Senate, and yet found a way to get the votes for almost everything he wanted?
It just a plain, historical FACT.
How do you feel about the White House rescuing the failing Primary Campaign of DINO Blanche Lincoln, who was CAMPAIGNING as the woman who killed the Public Option, in the Arkansas Democratic Primary 2010?
Don't you think the President could have put a little pressure on her to stay with the Party on critical votes like Health Care and the Public Option?
(remember that Lincoln had NO CHANCE against the Republican in The General,
while the Pro-LABOR Pro-Health Care challenger, Democratic Lt Governor Halter DID.)
It looks like Lincoln was REWARDED for opposing the Obama Agenda, doesn't it?
It was always obvious what an absurd joke that claim was; the very idea of The Impotent, Helpless President, presiding over a vast government and party apparatus, was laughable. But now, in light of Arkansas, nobody should ever be willing to utter that again with a straight face.

The same could be said of Traitor Joe Liebeman (that he was REWARDED by the Democratic Party Leadership for his treachery)
Ad Hominem Attacks like yours take very little thought and effort.
Anybody can do them, even refugees from the Beavis & Butthead Chatroom at AoL. That is one reason why I never take them seriously.
The other reason is that they ARE a Logical Fallacy,
and a sign that one can NOT post a cogent rebuttal.
AFIC, posting an unsupported Ad Hominem as a "rebuttal" is a concession.
Thanks!
Cheers!
