Ah, here we go with the Republicans pointing out that hardly any legislation has been passed....What they neglect to say is that the reason no legislation has been passed is because the Republicans in the Senate are blocking anything form being passed using the filibuster....there are 60 votes required to pass legislation in the Senate, but only 50 Dems in the Senate and 49 Republicans, therefore nothing can get past the Senate floor....that is their right however, and I wish them good luck in explaining to the American people in '08 why they refused to end a war that the American public no longer supports.

The house has passed some measures. The Senate is always slow to move, no matter who is in control.
The point of the Senate is to cool legislation anyway.

You should have given us a multiple choice list of possible answers. All I can remember is their faces spouting angry, self-righteous indignations -- as if anybody cared.
I guess I have to say I can't remember any 'legislation', only regurgitation.

Unfortunately nothing really...just a bunch of Political Posturing...also it is March and the FY 07 Department of Defense Budget has not been passed yet...I think we should not pay them for the past few months, like what would happen if they worked real jobs...no work...no pay...

Ummmmmmmmmmm....I haven't got a clue. They're so busy arguing with each other, they just can't seem to accomplish one single thing.
