Default A Quick Comment About Republicans/Dems, \"Whose\" fault IG Ban is...

I just wanted to quickly comment on this whole thing where a lot of people are basically slamming the Republicans and leaving the Democrats free of guilt. The argument might be "Well to vote against it would be political suicide". While I agree with this statement, doesn't this worry you for the future? What other bills will they(repubs or dems) pass simply so they can stay in office. On the other side of the coin, if the Democrats piggybacked a "10% increase in 6 figure income tax bracket to rebuild Social Security" section onto a bill and the Republicans passed it simply because they were under political pressure, wouldn't all the Republicans have not only Dems but also their own party to blame?

It should be clear as day that it's government in general to blame for this. If the Democrats protect our civil liberties, EXCEPT when they're under political pressure and don't wanna get slammed in TV ads, then they really aren't protecting them at all.

Cliffnotes: Both parties suck. Don't vote.
