    Question for the old timers

    Have congressional Democrats always been as spineless and wholly lacking in dignity as they have been this decade?

Is this Congressional impotence directly attributable to Reid and Pelosi or are they just continuing a longstanding tradition? It's frustrating, whatever it is.
