Some where down the road these bills are going inter your pocket book or maybe your health.
Of course one "contributor" has given his usual left- leaning rant against the right-wingers. *sigh*
To echo a couple of people here....it would be nice if we could let our guard down for one thread and stop mimicking stereotypical party baloney. Why do I always see the same media personalities mentioned here so frequently?
A little off the topic.....but did anybody notice that when Fox News made the unfortunate decision to go 3 straight hours of M. Jackson Thursday night, viewers responded by changing the channel. Seems people were really looking to find some real news about the Cap and Trade bill that was being voted on the next day.(Friday)

Again, my posts mention the current administration because THEY ARE THE CURRENT ADMINISTRATION, and the current administration ESPECIALLY when they have control of congress will always be the one on the defensive...that has nothing to do with party affliation or anything...just a fact of life.
During the Bush administration it happened, and all but the personal stuff, should be expected. Thankfully, we are so far without he personal attacks except by those who live to do that and none of us should be listening to what amounts to bull !
Again, my point because I dont make it well...I do not consider it APATHY, but just voters superficial look at what they consider issues which in most cases are not issues but personalities !
