Listen,IMHO,it could have been a lot worse on the financial cliff.

When you think about it he did get 98% of the Bush tax cuts put into effect and now the rats are forced to agree that the Bush tax cuts, which they demonized for ten years, are really a pretty good thing.Kinda like no wmds in Syria allover again.

Try and remember we only hold one House of govt. and not the Presidency so let your expectations keep that in mind.

You have a point its a thankless job and when you have the House and no Senate and an illegal President who doesn’t have clue when he’s off prompter, no budget in 1,300 days, its that much tougher.
I say warts and all we are foolish if we don’t try to work with Boehner.

Third party is a grand idea.(excuse me if I barf)
Why after a scant 20 years when they become viable we can even do a fourth party when the third party starts giving us only 60% of what you want instead of 100%. Grand idea! Anything else?

Too bad it didn’t succeed! The Republican Party has become a farce.

Sure. Lets keep praying to the Blue Fairy and every time we gather after they invariably do the wrong thing and bitch about it, the Blue fairy will send a phophet to tell us we need to keep doing that and some day real soon now, she’ll grant our wish.

THAT is a REALLY GOOD idea don’t’cha think?

Because it’s worked SPECTACULARLY well so far. For the GOP I mean. No for us so much but hey, as long as they haZ a happy that’s the important thing....

That’s old news, the now news is he had best stop anything that dopes anything but make it easier to get tuns.

Those bastards are responsible for the deaths of those 20 kids every bit as much as the guy or guys who pulled the triggers. If I am smart enough to know that making a place a gun free zone is an invitation to trouble, so are they, but they did it anyhow. We need to start holding them responsible for what they impose on us, especially when it cost the lives of 20 kids 5 and 6 years old.

Pick any number of hardcore Romney supporters. And a search will reveal lots of names/threads. Some gone now, some still here. But I and a number of others fought the ‘traitor’ BS for weeks prior to election day. And it got pretty bad in the last 2 weeks leading up. Oe or two names do not stand out and I don’t keep lists. Why don’t they stand out?

Because so many Freepers were saying it.

Check the old threads. Hell, just the other day I saw it thrown at another poster.

BTW, what are the words to the prayer so I can pray too?

The Republican Party is the only thing standing in the way of a total Democrat takeover. They are our Gondor.

I agree, also. She changed her vote, and then the next day offered a bill to repeal Obamacare, just to keep her conservative cred. Remember the primaries, I am a person of principle who will do what they say they will do? I stopped trusting her then. She should have stayed home and mentored the ‘10 Tea Party newbies.

“But one member, whose identity could not be verified, rescinded his or her participation the morning of the vote,” sounds like the BITCH Bachman.
