The supplemental Iraq War finance bill clearly illustrates that the Democratic "leadership" is continuing the established 6 year Republican trend: undermining the US Constitution, while giving our tax monies to their special interest groups.

Many Democrats think that Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi offers hope for ..:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />America. Wake Up! The first thing she did after Democrats won control of the House was to throw a $1,000/person dinner with hundreds of lobbyists present!
To gain enough support to pass this bill, Speaker Pelosi probably needed to include several Democratic earmarks in exchange for votes. The Democratic "leadership" also overstepped their Constitutional authority by including in this bill mandates that dictate how the President should run the military in a war that was condoned with bipartisan support!
I am a registered Democrat and to my knowledge this Republican administration has made every wrong decision possible. However, the Democrats are also not representing me or America. My point is that the Democratic and Republican "leaderships" are similar in that they do not serve America's best interests or even Americans of any political ideology; these traditional politicians only serve their special interest group masters and that point needs to be illuminated and blind party loyalty questioned, if not outright abandoned by all Americans.
