First of all, my post was NOT a criticism of the Democratic party...both parties are all the same despite your thinking that one is holier than the other...but was not a critique of your party.

It was meant as a tongue in cheek comment on our government.....gee you guys really love that party...never thought would have to defend myself on this one

If you read that they were going to run away and leave, it is probably because they have done it, and Harry Reid said as much about two days ago...and that is not a criticism of them either...there is no doubt that if there was political advantage to be had, the Republicans would do the same thing.

Just understand....unlike you guys, I do not worship any party whatsoever...yes, registered Republican now and have been since about 75 or 76....had been a Democrat since I first registered in 1960.
