tkhayes 348 #3 February 23, 2011 QuoteAre the Democrats going to be known as the party of "Run Away"? Why not? The GOP has been the party of 'NO' for a very long time. Hey- the republicans do pretty much anything they need to do to get their own way. Now the democrats are doing whatever they need to do to get their own way. name-calling does not change the facts.....if it works and it is in the best interests of the people they represent, then unless someone changes the rules, then they can do that. don't like it? Then get elected and change the rules. I had to put up with that fucking asshole Bush for 8 years, now you have to put up with this wah wah wah Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Public Officials aren't unionized (yet) so here is an idea. While they are out, hold another election and replace them. If you don't show up for work, you get replaced with someone who does, right? (unless you are union) Piss and moan about Republicans all you want, but when Obama said "we won, get over it" they still showed up for work and did what they had to do inside the system. They didn't cut and run like a bunch of spoiled 3rd graders."There is an art, it says, or, rather, a knack to flying. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss."

popsjumper 2 #8 February 24, 2011 Sometimes discretion is the better part of valor. There's a reason why they don't let bantam-weights fight heavy-weights, eh? If you know you're gonna get your ass kicked, sometimes it's better to walk away. Sometimes it's better to RUN! I wonder...say the Dems stayed and lost the vote. Who would be there patting them on the back saying, "That was mighty brave of you, son. You did the right thing." My hunch is that not even the R's would be. My reality and yours are quite different.

Same as anyone else - do you get a pat on the back because you do your job? What if you decided in the middle of your job (AFF), to just run away (pull) because it got to scary for you. What would then happen to the people that paid for your services?I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
