FOR THE IMPATIENT AMONG US, LOOK WHAT’S HAPPENED

The Democrats have been "in power" for about two months. In the previous twelve years, the Republican controlled congress investigated Clinton mercilessly. Then when they got a Republican into office, investigations ceased. The congress became a blank check for anything the president wanted to do. Bush never even had to veto a bill until there was bi-partisan support for stem cell research.

To say that the Republican controlled congress was a "Do Nothing" congress is an understatement. To say they were in "Lock Step" doing the president’s bidding is also an understatement.

Now we have a congress that is by a small majority Democratic. Look how much "Check and Balance" has been done. Committees have been set up to ensure that taxpayer money has been properly spent. In the little over two months, there have been three major scandals exposing the Republican lack of oversight and corruption. All of this simply because the Democrats have been asking questions and looking into the way the things have been run.

We have Walter Reed Hospital. The Libby trial implicates Bush, Cheney and Rove in outing a CIA agent, an act of Treason. Federal attorneys fired because they would not follow the Bush political agenda.

AND IT’S JUST THE BEGINNING FOLKS! This is gonna be more fun than Watergate.
