I get it....the majority party has more influence on shaping legislation and you find something wrong with that because you dont like the party in power.

I get if further...the only opinions that are valid to you are the ones from partisan right wing editorial writers and bloggers...a double standard?
I have no problem with the Majority rule. And for you to defend the practices of that scumbag Pelosi states much about how you see the world in your rose colored glasses. She has Rahmrodded the legislation through with very little input from Republickins. She promised change and nothing has changed. The Demoncrats are no better then when the other party was in charge.

"We won the election; we wrote the bill," Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
People talk about using scare tactics to get things done?!?! In an effort to ram her bill through Congress she said this:
Quote:
"Every month that we do not have an economic recovery package 500 million Americans lose their jobs." Nancy Pelosi
It was total BS. And on top of that no one could read the damm thing it was so long and filled with pork.

Quote:
"I don't think anyone will have the chance" to read the entire bill before voting on it, admitted Sen. Frank Lautenberg, a Democrat from New Jersey.
After the vote on the bill:
Quote:
For instance, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi told everyone, "There are no earmarks or pet projects' in the bill. But everybody knows that's simply not the case. Sure, it once involved $819 billion in spending and tax cut provisions, and has since been whittled down to $790 billion. But it was 700 pages last week and has since mushroomed into nearly 1,000 pages festooned with so much spending that even those in Congress cannot possibly grasp it all. And whether it was approved through the shortcut of earmarks or not is irrelevant; it is certainly full of pet projects, and it certainly didn't receive much scrutiny prior to being passed.
