Democrats hate the 'status quo', the acceptance of things as they are. They dream of a 'better condition.' The fight to change, to improve, to move in a new direction is always feared and questioned and seen as hatred by those who are complacent for what is already established.

Why does Obama need the republicans for his agenda? He has all the cards. He doesn't need them at all.

We don't.
It's like saying black people like chicken or white people can't dance.
You're stereotyping a whole classification of people and you should be ashamed of yourself. And if you're not ... well then, you're just like all other conservative ... ignorant.

Read your last sentence. You accuse someone of stereotyping and then turn around in the SAME sentence and stereotype them!! :shk: No wonder the left has a bad reputation. Do you just not see it?

Your post is very, very nasty. I hope you don't consider yourself a Democrat, because if you do, you are scoring up multiple points for the home team on this thread.
On the one hand you speak of "revolvers" and "machine guns" even in somewhat of a theatening way, and on the other you are recommending (to who???) getting on your hands and knees and asking forgiveness for wicked, murderous ways?
What's wrong with you?

OK, my thoughts, very quickly.
Yes, the Democratic party has it's problems and there have been, and no doubt still are racist democrats.... But I would bet my entire life savings that the same goes for the republican party as well.
I understand what you are getting at and your concern considering that the Dem's have the majority rule, but let us be honest. BOTH sides of the fence are full of corruption and both sides have issues with greed, abuse of power, and lots of other things...
This is not just a democrat problem and it is not just a republican problem. It is a government as a whole problem....
There is corruption on both sides that needs to be weeded out and destroyed... Lobbying needs to be gotten rid of because the politicians see the money in front of them and decide to vote the way the big companies want instead of the way the people want, as they are supposed to....
The corruption is everywhere in Washington... NOT just in one party.... And it is high time we do something about it other than just bicker about which side is more corrupt....
EDIT: Correcting a few typos...
