Democrats are. Politicians aren't. Democratic politicians are far more politician than democrat (no less so than republican politicans), if they weren't we'd have a single payer healthcare bill on Obama's desk as we speak.

I would like to think that restrictions on lobbyists and corporate influence is something on which both democrats and republicans could agree. At least the voters themselves if not the politicians.

Just another example of hypocrasy 101.  Democrats did not invent the word, but they are bound and determined to make it their own.

It's tough to be too concerned about people throwing stones when they themselves live in glass houses.

So if you are a politician, the party title means nothing then? So in reality we don't have a Democratic controlled House, Senate and White House. We simply have a politician leading these Houses. So they basically lied when they claimed to be Democrats while running for office. Hmmm.

Politicians or voters? Now you have me confused with your Politician and non-politician excuse, I mean discription.

So 2 wrongs do make a right then. Funny how Republicans are bad for using lobbyist but Democrats (politicians that is) not only can use them but can even lie about not wanting to use them and still get excused. Amazing, it's worth being a Democrat these days. I can commit murder and get away with it so long as I'm a registered Democrat.

We need not to make cases, Democrats make themselves guilty within 3 seconds of opening their mouths.

So lying is making an effort? Gosh, not only do Democrats have lying down to a science (as oppose to a religion) but they are also masters at excuses and hypocrisy. And I mean both politicians and voters.
