Kumbaya and whatnot.
Where was the MSM outcry and calls for "bipartisanship" when Sen Heinz bit the big one in PA and the governor appointed a Democrat to replace him? Again...::crickets chirping::...

First of all, can you stop calling people faggots? It's lame and you don't know who posts here. Second, you're way off base. Heinz passed away in 1991 so your arguments about the "MSM" are a little bit off base as we didn't have th 24 hour news cycle that we have now. Nor did we have the horrible pundit hacks that we currently see on the air making everything into a huge drama. There was actually, surprising, alot more civility in our political coverage on BOTH sides back in 1991. I might also add that your thread title "Democrats Cheat" is super childish and makes me think of a 8 year old kid crying to his mom about some mean boys who pushed him or something. I think the threat title you're looking for is "Politicians cheat." In the meantime I'm going to start working on my bridge construction project, you know, so you can get over it.
Oh and if you think the Republicans are not guilty of gerrymandering districts to keep power, particularly when they chop up African American populations to dilute the vote then you are even more naive than I thought. And that's saying something.
