Reply #11: The reason she did this that she and Reid are JUST as guilty

[Phred42]

The reason this happened is that Pelosi and Reid are JUST as guilty of Torture, the War, the mortgage meltdown, the recession (soon to be depression) and all of the other illegal crap we blame the Reich for.

They didn't even have to bring this to a vote now - they could have let it slide until the next Congress - but chose to do it now -

WHILE THEY STILL HAD CONTROL. Waiting for the NEXT Congress would have been a crap shoot at best.

They did this to keep their own asses out of jail.

Republican / Democrat..... it becomes a distinction without a difference and we end up with the dirty little secret: Newt's permanent republican majority is in place - NOW. It's simply that many of them just use the D.

Unfortunately, there are VERY few Democrats left in Washington. Pelosi & Reid ain't among them.
