I can't wait to see what they do in 2011. Then the Independants and the Right leaning Lefties will see how pathetic that party is.

The Party of No.
Uhmmm Pretty sure they are talking about all the tax cuts. Not just the ones on the rich.
Pretty sure the Dems don't either. Barney Frank and good ole Chris dud come to mind. Unless your talking about Rangel who used his position to cheat the system for 17 years.
Party hardliners. When will they ever learn to think for themselves?
Only their party can be right,good, patriotic blah blah blah. Their paty never has corrupt politicians or at least not as bas as the other party right?
Luzerne County Pa. A democratic strong hold forever. Judges selling prison cells. School board members demanding applicants for teaching jobs make a contribution to the party in order to be considered for a job. County commissioners up to their eyes balls in all kinds of crimes. Nope no democrats are ever bad.

98% of all politicians Stink. Both parties are full of BS.

I'm saying the Republican's want Obama to fail, and this is not the right time for either party to be political. People are struggling, cops and emergency workers are being layed off. First things we need to do is worry about American's that don't have a G6 or a stretched Hummer Limo right now.

Come January 1st if Obama still doesn't vote to extend the tax breaks for the Super Rich or people making over $250,001 per year nothing will be done.

You're going to be disappointed.
They will if they want to get re-elected in 2 years. Have to also see who in the Senate is up for re-election in 2012. I want to monitor those guys.

They've been running for re-election every 2 years for a hell of a long time. Seen any difference? They've been monitored since the country was founded. Seen any difference?

Monitor away, my dear and I wish you luck. Have you read how they're already pulling back from their "no more earmarks" declarations? They know that despite the rhetoric, pork barrel spending earns votes from the people in their district. They may rant about it in general, but abolish it for themselves? No way.

Same thing on immigration. They might say that illegal immigration is bad for the country, but they accept the gazillions in donations from industries that depend on cheap labor. After they've accepted the donations, how do you think they're gonna vote on immigration reform?

In the meantime, they'll keep everyone in a tizzie over Don't Ask Don't Tell to distract them from the fact that it's business as usual.

Doesn't sound like you're too interested in change, but in maintaining the status quo and propaganda.

Democrats had 4 years to do their bidding.

Now we can have economic recovery and return to prosperity under Republican control, just watch.
