The fourth reich
Reaching across the aisle, huh?

House speaker Dennis "yes, Mr DeLay" Hastert last week "enunciated a policy in which Congress will pass bills only if most House Republicans back them, regardless of how many Democrats favor them."

Hastert's position, which is drawing fire from Democrats and some outside groups, is the latest step in a decade-long process of limiting Democrats' influence and running the House virtually as a one-party institution. Republicans earlier barred House Democrats from helping to draft major bills such as the 2003 Medicare revision and this year's intelligence package. Hastert now says such bills will reach the House floor, after negotiations with the Senate, only if "the majority of the majority" supports them.

Arrogant #ucking bastards. And #uck all of you who believed things were going to be different this time around. Honor, integrity, values... if this is the kind of bullshit you believe in, you can kiss my ass. You make me sick.
