we need a balance playing field. They cater too much with rethugs.. and i can't comprehend or understand when this happened.
How and Why?

3. As far as I can tell, the Repubs still hold super-majorities in the House and Senate |

7. In the past 10 days I've seen more of Mitch McConnell than I have of President Obama |
