Only by a little, though.
What Jerrid said. Not much better at all.
I've been ignoring them since the election. Perhaps not the wisest course, but it gets so tiresome.
Are they at least showing up to work? That would be an *enormous* improvement.
Democratically controlled is the polite way to formulate this sentence. It's like the differnce between the phrase, Jewish Doctor, and Jew doctor.
Oops. Good point.
I could disagree more, but not much. This congress was elected to end the Iraq war. They failed, and they lied. But this should have been known to the people to begin with. Democrats historically are pro-war socialists.
At least they're running a few investigations of the president. But their performance is still disappointing.
Democratically-controlled.
