No, they haven't. Have you not noticed the never ending obstructionism, the constant fillibuster threats? From day one? On every little thing? Every vote? Blocking budget approval for our troops just to delay? What has the GOP vote been on every issue before Congress and the Senate this year? Check that out.
Plenty of GOP stuff was included in the house healthcare bill - including tort reform. They were specifically invited by Obama to submit what they wanted, and they did.
The Dems finally have got it right - lock the obstructionist politicos who are more worried about re-relection than healthcare reconciliation out of the process, and they absolutely deserve it. Dump the obstructionist crybabies and get something done in spite of them.

Obama gave a good speech? Which frikkin one? It took 3 days for any comment at all and now they can't shut him up.

LOL - Bush didn't speak for a week, then mentioned shoebomber Reid only in passing. Obama had a statement issued the same day, then addressed the country on day three, and gave a great speech last night. And has already altered transportation policies to give greater security, including profiling.
Where's the complaining far right, who have been calling for profiling all over Fox News since Christmas, saying, "about time, thank you" for that last bit?
BTW, what's up with Rudy Guliani? I thought he decided to drop politics? Hitting talk shows and news orgs in the last 24 hours, saying there were no terrorist attacks on George Bush's watch? With a straight face? Mr. 9-11?
