1. Yes, they continue to be led by the right
while ignoring their constituency. Worst democratically held congress I have ever seen.

2. It depends on whose work they're doing
as someone pointed out to me once, the myth that Bush is a failure is absurd- he's worked tirelessly on behalf of billionaires the world over, and they are most pleased with what he has wrought.

6. What happened on Iraq?
I do feel as though they've given up. The last try to my recollection was the bill to give troops more time at home before being redeployed. I understand the issue with filibuster in the Senate, but, jeez - to just go quiet?
