Reply #29: Last I checked Conyers is a democrats and republicans are in charge

It's simple math - as long as there are more of them and less of us then stuff like this will be bottled up in committee forever. And that forever will last even longer if we keep thinking that it's better to not vote for a democrat if they don't pass some random yardstick test that some DUers think they have the right to judge.

More democrats means this bill makes the floor. Less democrats means we just wasted alot of bandwidth on the internet posting questions like why bills like this are going nowhere!
