Change is in the air

[Zeitgeist]

The American people voted to restore integrity and honesty in Washington, D.C., and the Democrats intend to lead the most honest, most open and most ethical Congress in history,” Pelosi said. She added, “And nowhere did the American people make it more clear that we need a new direction than in the war in Iraq. ‘Stay the course’ has not made our country safer, has not honored our commitment to our troops and has not made the region more stable. We cannot continue down this catastrophic path.” She called on the Bush administration to work with Democrats “to find a solution to the war in Iraq.”

Senate Minority Leader Harry M. Reid of Nevada told supporters, “All across America tonight . . . there is in the air a wind of change.”

House Republicans will move again on Tuesday to strip Rep. Charlie Rangel of his chairmanship of the powerful Ways and Means Committee — and after last week’s admonishment of the veteran New York lawmaker by the House ethics committee, Republicans are confident that they will be pick up more Democratic votes.

Rangel remains under investigation by the ethics committee over a variety of issues related to his personal finances, including his failure to report hundreds of thousands of dollars on income and assets; his fundraising on behalf of the Charles B. Rangel Center for Public Service at City College in New York; his use of multiple, rent-stabilized apartments in Harlem; and his failure to pay taxes on a Dominican Republic.

Don’t you love change?

If the Republicans would vote with Democrats, then we would have health care and change.

It looks to me like the Republicans are stalling to preserve the status quo and PREVENT change.

Zeit, your post implies that the Democrats are continuing the corrupt practices of the Republicans. Hence no change.

The Democrats are better in that, without the deadlock tactics of the Republicans, there would be change. So, as I’ve argued before, we are making incremental progress in the right direction.

What the does Rangel have anything to do with ending the Wars in Iraq and Afghanistan?

Obama is committed to ending the wars as soon as possible.

We won’t see real change until next congressional sessions, where the Senate rules are voted on starting day one. Look for a change in the filibuster rules. With Republican abuse of the filibuster, its hard to get anything done in that body. The House has nearly two hundred bills already approved and waiting for Senate action.

So what we have today is a party that wants to implement change; and we have the other party blocking any kind of change.
