Like nobody does conspiracy.
Democrats can't even get away with a "fast and furious" that was started under the PREVIOUS republican administration. Republicans on the other hand can steal elections and start phony wars as if they were simply jaywalking.
Sorry for being random, but what got me starting this post is just watching MSNBC. Chris Mathews just talked about the supreme court makeup and how 4 judges would probably be retiring soon, all in their 70's. I looked at the picture of the court put on the screen and saw these two extremely young faces and just thought to myself... they even did it again... right in front of a Democratic house and Senate. They nominated two of the youngest Judges in history begginging with Judge Roberts.. why, so he'll be around another 30-40 years lol. Democrats don't even really think on that page. Republicans on the other hand would NEVER allow the Democrats to place two young Liberals on the Supreme court. Thank God for the "new" democrats. But Geez, sometimes I wonder why Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid are even given a pass now (after a few comments about Mitt Romneys taxes. WOOOOO!!! YAH!!! Stick it to em Harry!!!!!) after giving Bush Carte Blanche all those years to do anything he damn well pleased.
