When we hear questions like, “Why can’t we just get along? (the D and R parties), well there is a good reason that there is friction between the parties.

From 2008 to 2010 the Republicans couldn’t add anything to what the Democrats wanted to do.

In the House they were completely shut out, hence the 2010 elections. Now even before the Republicans took control of the House of Representatives, the Democratic President gave the tax cuts and signed them into law.

Again, even though a Democrat did this, just blame the Republicans.

This is the usual rhetoric used by Democrats. They never take the blame for anything.

Just as NAFTA was signed by Democrat Bill Clinton, they want to blame the Republicans.

G. W. Bush signed the treaties opening trade with Canada and Mexico, which was a big mistake. I do not blame the Democrats for his mistake.

How can we ever get along when you have wacky people who do things like the tragedy that happened in Tucson?

Just how many people jumped on the TV and blamed Sarah Palin for this? Then the truth came out that he had targeted Gifford in 2007, long before anyone knew anything about Mrs. Palin. She wasn’t nominated until in 2008.

The truth came out in all the papers and TV stations that he was a disturbed individual who was kicked out of college and wouldn’t be accepted to serve in the service.

However, where was their apology? It is yet to be given and they still blame the same people for this.

Just where is getting along, that is unless you can accept whatever the Democrats say as Gospel, and just live with their lies. Then we can get along.
