Conclusions from my earlier statement and questions
- Thread starter Judy1
- Start date
you're mistaken. Dems would work with a Romney prez, but they won't be rolled.
I've never seen Repubs work with a Dem prez.
you seem to have erected a false equivalency.
how many times did senate repubs filibuster needed and moderate legislation?
how many billsdid House repubs vote on to restrict women's access to abortion and even contraception?
how many times did House repubs vote to dump PPACA, 30, 40 times?
when will repubs renege on their blood oath to Grover Norquist?

Why would you expect any respect at all? After this: http://www.google.com/imgres?q=obam...99&start=22&ndsp=29&ved=1t:429,r:2,s:20,i:167
Your party can't claim any high moral or ethical ground.

I'm not suggesting dems should roll over Julie, I'm just suggesting that the tone has to change and it has to start somewhere. But since its more likely Obama is going to win, the real question is with republicans and whether people will demand that they work with Obama when it serves the people and not the party. But I would ask Dems the same thing if the situation were reversed.

Jen,
I thought that you said that general labels didn't apply to real individuals. No one referred to you as a "Republican." Judy was just referring to "Pugs" generically. I think that you are taking things too personally.
When it comes to name-calling, both sides (righties included) are pretty nasty. Neither side has a lot to be proud of.

If Romney really wanted bi-partisan cooperation, he would throw Grover Norquist under the bus (like Alan Simpson of Simpson-Bowles did.) I doubt that Romney would have that kind of backbone if he was elected President. (Besides, Paul Ryan might assassinate Romney to make sure that Grover was not thrown under the bus.)
