I hope that isn't what is happening with healtchare. |
Republicans have counter-proposals for all proposals that Obama and the Democrats have. You never hear about them because it has no chance of being passed or even considered.
The media likes to talk about proposals that get passed, peoples opinion on that, not stuff that has no chance of passing and isn't whacko. They also like conflict and disaggrement. Republicans only get air time when commenting on Obama or his plans. Their plan won't get passed and as such Democrats never talk or argue about their plan. They did a little when it came to stimulus, nothing since.
