    You got that right,

    The Democrats in Congress (especially the two you mention, but not just) have been more part of the problem than the solution, enablers rather than opponents. We're ruled (yes, ruled) by a class of people who share common interests and political philosophies. Noblesse oblige.

    With rare notable exceptions, Democrats have been seriously complicit, in my view, in all sorts of ways, while depicting themselves in campaigns as against Bush's policies and tactics.

    If/when we - the people - regain some semblance of influence in all branches of our government, the Democratic Party (collectively and individuals) needs to also be investigated and prosecuted as thoroughly as the Bush junta. Let's not give them a pass.
