Earlier this month, the Bush administration nominated Neil Barofsky, a federal prosecutor, to be the Treasury Department's special inspector general on the bailout program. ... Last week, Sen. Chris Dodd, the Connecticut Democrat who chairs the banking committee, issued a little-noticed statement saying that although the nomination 'was cleared by members of the Senate Banking Committee, the leadership of the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs, and all Democratic Senators,' it was 'blocked on the floor by at least one Republican member.'"

The so called opposition party never blocked anything and no Demo
Senator blocked anything in the past 8 years.
Can we guess that some of these horrible things the bush horror story put into effect could have been---blocked?
What? They claimed they could do nothing, but one Senator could and did make a block so, in other words they did not want to do something other than squeel.
