About power in Washington

RNC Chairman Michael Steele caused me to spurt my Diet Mountain Dew out of my nose in a choking fit of laughter when he offered:

Democrats have controlled both branches of government for less than a month. And you have to wonder if all that power has gone to their heads. For the last two weeks, they've been trying to force a massive spending bill through Congress under the guise of economic relief.

Hey, the GOP have been booted out of the seat of power by American voters who were burned out by their mishandling of affairs. So now they, the Republicans, are pouting and whining and trying to pretend they and their disproved theories are still relevant.

This is about accountability to the American people ... something that was lost on the Bush administration and their GOP enablers in Congress the past eight years.
