I dont listen to rush or watch o'reilly but all I see from the dems is rhetoric. They criticize the republicans for their vision and plans but they dont put out a plan of their own. Recently all they have been doing is calling for one investigation after another. I am not crazy about the repbulican vision but atleast they have one out there, where is the democrats plan and vision???

Even many of the posters in here that are democrats have yet to p ut up a valid plan. The way I was raised is if you have a problem with how something is going, you better have a plan ready to go before you open your mouth.

Okay, we'll disregard the fact that the Democrats aren't running the country at the moment, therefor they aren't obligated to have plans for anything (that's the Republicans' job right now)

One of the wacky side effects of partisanship is the inability to listen to the other side or actively figure out what they're talking about. Of course the Democrats aren't going to seem to have solutions if you don't take the time to find out what they are. The fact of the matter is, they do have solutions, but they are usually disregarded by partisan Republicans right out of the gate, simply because they came from Democrats.

Conversely, many Democrats also complain that the Republicans have no plan in Iraq, Afghanistan, Social Security, the economy, etc...of course we know they do have a plan, but since the Democrats don't like them, they (or any partisan on either side) will equate "plan I don't like" to "no plan at all".

Just my opinion.
