<p>Dstark,
What’s the point of calling the Dems incompetent? How do you think the Righty Tighty Republicans got into power? - by never attacking their own and sticking together. The Dems don’t need to do anything right now except let Bush’s incompetence shine through. The more silent the Dems are at this point, the more people see for themselves just how awful this admininstration and this war is. It’s just a crying shame that even a small percentage of those who NOW disapprove of Bush didn’t see the writing on the wall last Fall.</p>

<p>The country does best (historically proven) when neither party has enough power to get anything passed. Virtually all politicians are incompetent, or quickly become so when they think they have some power.</p>

<p>Historically we seem to do best when the party in the White House isn’t in charge of the Congress. Most people think congress is corrupt and inept but that their congressman is an exception. We need a President who is willing to veto congress and a congress that is willing to challenge the White House over policy.</p>

<p>Democrats need to speak out against bad government, just as Republicans should.</p>

<p>Isn’t that the truth.</p>

I cannot wait for Greenspan to retire. He has harmed our economy more than any politian could. Remember 1999 - 2000 when he raised the federal funds rate to 6.5 percent forcing the country into a recession because he did not like stock valuations. There was no inflation. There was nothing to justify such high rates. Now the jerk does not like the valuation of houses and will do his best to put us into another recession. I think the chairman of the federal reserve should be an elected position. That way we could have gotten rid of him a long time ago.</p>
