Until Obama, Where Were All These Democratic Ideas?

A day doesn't go by where the Democrats don't criticize the Republicans for having "no ideas" and for "saying no" to almost everything that they and this President proposes.

Well, I would like to flip those comments around.

Where were all these Democratic ideas on health care reform and saving the environment over the last 8 years while Bush was in office? What is even more perplexing, the Democrats have had almost complete control of the House and Senate for the last 2-1/2 years and, up until Obama took office, there was never any plans from the Democrats for health care reform or the immediate push for climate control. Now, all of a sudden, there is this mad rush to do something, almost anything, because Obama made some campaign promises.

To me, this is just nuts!

If all that they want to do, now, are such good ideas, why not have proposed them 8 years ago; or, even, 2 years ago!
