I’ve been asking this question for a while. Why, when Democrats held the House, Senate and Presidency in 2009, did they not try to pass this legislation? Is it just a political football for them?
When Democrats were in charge, why didn’t they do something about immigration, or slavery reparations, or pass global warming legislation, or deal with other issues?
Part of it is because they want the political issue to stay alive. And part of it is that they were so consumed with shoving Obamacare down our throats at that time, that they couldn’t do more than one big thing at a time.
