Two points!
1. They are not yet officially the majority party! You're getting a little ahead of yourself here.
2. What the hell are they supposed to do next month when they receive their power? Make a "state of the senate" resolution? Your stupid ass prez is the commander in chief, remember? The only really forceful thing the dems can do is threaten to cut off military funding, and I doubt anyone (except maybe the evil, baby-eating, use-your-kid-as-cannon-fodder Neocons) wants to play that game of chicken, when the losers are the troops, and the game is played with an idiot at the other wheel.
I call bullshit.
Admit it chuckie, you ARE disappointed with the Dem's (lack of) action on this aren't you?
As for the "we're not in power line" - the R's have little power - they're a lame duck congress, and so is the Prez. Time to take some personal responsibility for your party.
