Democrats are acting cowardly

The Democrats need to stand up to Bush and the Republicans in Congress. If Bush vetos all the government spending bills and thereby shuts the government down, it is his fault. If the Republicans in the Senate threaten to filibuster bills, they should be forced to stand up 24/7 until they fall over rather than calling for a cloture vote in a few hours. The Democrats are giving the Republicans power. They need to stand up and stomp down.
