I certainly pray that the Speaker of the House does not succumb to this foolishness. If he does, he will be robbing the one thing for which everyone in the Tea Party and much of the rest of this country, for that matter, have been steadfastly wishing these past two years.

We did not place Republicans in control of the US House on a whim. We put them there to STOP Obama and crush anything he has planned for this country in the next two years. He - Democrats - DO NOT DESERVE bipartisan cooperation - they deserved to be crushed politically. By 'sitting' with them, they dilute our power and they dilute the true visage of the message that we sent them from the polls last November.

We, true Amercians, deserve this sight. If you (Republicans) take it from us, you will have holy hell to pay at the ballot box come 2012. Proceed at your peril.

It’s a distraction by both parties. They are still together without the public.

What exactly do you expect the Speaker to do about it? First off, the ones i’ve seen willing to cross the aisles so far are Senators, not Representatives. Second, there is no assigned seating. You sit where you sit. If a hoard of Democrats arrive early and sit on the Republican side, he can’t forcibly remove them.
