Both are full of Sh*t

[supremedoctrine]

To continue your metaphor,(”both are full of S*it”) I was going to say that the two Johns should meet each other in another john to do their “bipartisan” work.
Here comes John McCain again as the Left’s best friend.
Here comes John McCain again to flush away any significance
in being a member of “the opposition party”.

[hinckley buzzard]

Indeed. Kerry and McCain need to make a bipartisan agreement to STFU. They are the people who got us into this mess.

Absolutely! There can be NO negotiations with Kerry. To negotiate with him and Dems like him--i.e. Shumer, Pelosi, Reid, Franks, etc., is to capitulate and give them everything they want. Otherwise, you are "holding America hostage", when in reality, they are the hostage takers.

The Dems own this crisis, with some help from Bush's aversion to using the bully pulpit in an agressive manner. The Dems had Congress the last two years of Bush'd admin; they and Clinton before them, owned the collapse of the mortgage junk bond empire. The Dems have been out of comliance with the law of the land for more than 2 years concerning a budget.

They do not even seem concerned about the downgrade because they are what Senator Grassly called DC--an island surrounded by reality. To that definition, I would add that they have insulated that island so that the sea of reality surrounding them doesn't even get close enough to lap upon the shore.
