What year are we in?

I got a SERIOUS case of deja vu when I read this: Measure to Outlaw Flag Burning Advances in Senate

Why the HELL are republicans wasting our time on this crap??? Only a few weeks left til the end of this congressional session and we've passed NONE of the major security bills waiting for a vote because these zealous hypocrits are pushing divisive social issues.

I know I'm sounding like the angry liberal, the flip-side of Rush, but republicans must really hate this country. They hate democracy. They hate unity. They hate peace. They gots to get them votes. And the only way they think they can maintain some power is to continue dividing our society and driving a stake through any chance at bipartisan unity.

Bah.
