November 2, 201015 yr Meet the new boss, same as the old boss. I have to ask, however. Does "We won't get fooled again" still apply?
November 2, 201015 yr I have to ask, however. Does "We won't get fooled again" still apply? No because all it takes is a bunch of undisclosed secret donors to pay for attack ads to flood the airwaves and you have the election. The American electorate on average has little understanding of the issues and sadly not many care. So we will get fooled again those on the left and the right.
November 3, 201015 yr At least we know that if the "Rs" control the legislative branch, we can count on your vote for a "D" in the executive.:thumb: You are actually completely correct regarding how I look at politics now. I will never be in favor of the control of the legislative and executive branch of government by one party and I will stick to my guns no matter the party.:thumb:
November 3, 201015 yr I predict the House will vote to rescind the healthcare bill. It will be for show as it will not get enough votes to pass the Senate and the ultimate veto.
November 3, 201015 yr It's probably already been mentioned, but congrats to Pelosi for becoming the new House Minority Leader. It was a hard fought contest and she prevailed. She fought the good fight and won and for that I salute her.

November 3, 201015 yr I'm waiting with baited-breath on the term limit amendments for Congress that surely will go in first thing once the Tea Partiers get to Washington.

November 3, 201015 yr I expect a shutdown. While stupid, messy, and hurtful to veterans and other groups that rely on Federal support, some still appear to look wistfully on those grand times with Newt. Of course, it also helped Bill Clinton landslide Dole...
November 3, 201015 yr I guess I will be the sucker and expect the new blood to keep their promises and begin to changes things. I will give them the benefit of the doubt until they prove me wrong. I am hoping against hope that this is the case as well. Only time will tell.
November 3, 201015 yr :clap: It's probably already been mentioned, but congrats to Pelosi for becoming the new House Minority Leader. It was a hard fought contest and she prevailed. She fought the good fight and won and for that I salute her.:clap: Couldn't happen to a nicer gal. :banana:
November 4, 201015 yr I predict the House will vote to rescind the healthcare bill. It will be for show as it will not get enough votes to pass the Senate and the ultimate veto. But it will force everyone to stand up and be counted. No more "I didn't understand what I was voting for" nonsense. Of course, the bad part is liberals can vote for repeal of healthcare knowing it stands no chance of happening.
