Republicans vs. Democrats

[TuTu Monroe]

how, for example, can you say that the Democrats have tried to work with the Republicans on health care reform when the Democrats did not put a single Republican on the committee charged with reconciling the House bill with the Senate bill?.......

...and wasn't this all done behind closed doors keeping the Republicans out? I wonder what the left's definition of bi-partisan is?

I'm sure it doesn't recognize the bipartisan opposition to the House bill approved Saturday.......

Define "work with". This scenario has been played out countless times. Whoever is in power says "we'll work with you" as long as you go along with what we want. Then the group out of power says the majority won't "work with us" because they won't include what we want.

This.

Because key members of the Senate were on the Senate committee. Snow and Graslee for example.

do you deny that when it was time to reconcile the House and Senate bills no Republicans were named to the committee?......
