Tweety Show: Some Dem Senators Who Think They're More Important Than The President
They were discussing opposition to Obama's agenda, principally health care, and his potential SCOTUS pick. Con opposition is a given but the real roadblocks may come from the dem side and dems who think they are more important than Obama.

2. Pogo said:

5. Equal Branch Yes
But individual senators are not equal in station to the president for whom senators rise when he enters a room

4. All congressman have a right to voice their concerns. Censorship
is not needed nor desired. And for you to phase it as 'better than Obama" shows your lack of knowledge of the process and certainly not democratic.

8. Your Two Posts Reflect A Lack Of Reading Comprehension
At no point in relating what they were discussing and said did I offer my personal opinion opinion on the matter
