Why is n't the Democratic Party targeting Congressmen and
Senators who voted for Bush's obscene tax cuts and now remain silent as those funds are being used to move operations and jobs by the corporations to overseas locations? Why should our tax monies be abused in this way and not benefit the people who have made the tax cuts under one premise and are being cheated by this administration?

1. What I love about sentiments like this

this type of work.

Dems just don't have the resources to fight on all fronts. Dem resources are always about 1/2 of what the Repugs get.
