Why is it ok for Republicans to RAM legislation down the people's throats, but not Democrats?

Take Wisconsin. Republican talking heads say this is just how to get things done.

Last year, they said Democrats were ramming healthcare down our throats?

So which is it? Or is it only ok when Republicans do it?

    the republicans never ram down legislation down the peoples throats as you say . only the democrates do that. they legislate they are the most honest fair minded even handed fair and balanced political party ever. watch rush beck orielly and fox news if you dont believe me. they will tell you so . dont lelieve that they are selfish greedy mean heartless evil corporate lapdogs ever that is untrue. hell just look at all the good they do. you say you cant remember anything good that they did. i have a hypnotist that will make you see the light. the republicans have a ton of hypnotist on staff for those who stray from the party line.

    I think they have been asking for the 14 numb skulls to come back for weeks. Are they supposed to just wait until the return from their Illinois vacation to get stuff done.

    The 14 thought they would take a stand but guess what...THEY AREN"T as smart as the republicans and didn't anticipate such a bold move. Bravo to the republicans who aren't held hostage by a union or 14 idiot legislators.

    HC bill was nation wide.

    WI is just one state that only affects WI.

    if you don't like the rules in WI don't go there.

    if you wanted a HC mandate you could have gone to MA instead of forcing 350million people to do it too.

    It's OK when the opposition runs away and refuses to show up to do their jobs.

    Simple & non-partisan.
