20. They are still able to block progressive initiatives - and that is power.

If they are weak why don't we have single payer health care in this country? Why does the war against Iraq continue, why hasn't the Patriot Act been repealed, why do we still have a Department of Homeland Security, why aren't Bush, Cheney, Tenet, Rumsfeld, Rice, and Gonzo in jail (and Ashcroft at least on parole)?
