Reply to comment by susinpgh in Pennsylvania House Republicans want to be called back to vote on constitutional amendments by themollusk

>And no, I don't think Democrats are completely innocent of some of these things.

...

>The Republicans in PA have practiced this and other ham-handed policies for quite awhile, though.

You either accept both parties have done it since the dawn of this nation, or you're basically a hypocrite. There's really no way around that. If you want to point fingers, the further back you go in history, the harder it is to prove who did "wrong" first.

Oh, gee! Let's play the both parties game! Man, I'm sure you can find someone to argue this point with. I'm not interested, though. So, enjoy your evening.

That's the thing though... it is both parties and pretending one is more guilty than the other is naive at best. I can go online right now and find dozens of examples of overloaded Dem bills. Come on, man. You're pretending.

Neither current party did. But both current parties are guilty of packing pork onto bills.

Made no claims regarding pork barrel legislation. Simply pointing out that it's a flatly ignorant statement.

Which is perfectly fine. Don't be dense. My only assertion was that the two parties didn't exist upon the founding of the US. Either you're intentionally being obtuse or your reading comprehension regarding my comments is absolute shit.
