Well, Republican's won a ton of elections. SO let's see just how quickly they can deliver what they promised.

First order of business:

I would like to start making ALL that money I used to back in the 90's.

I would like my company to do so well that we EXPAND again.

I would like my 401K back to where it was in 2000.

I would like my employees to be satisfied like they were in 1999.

I would like my friends and family members who are unemployed to find good paying jobs.

I will give you 6 months, and if we do not see a marked change in the economy, unemployment, and tax relief, you have FAILED your supporters.

Why do you give them a mere 6 moths, when Obama had a whopping 2 years?

So you don't expect anything from your president anymore? Good to know.

Aw come on--6 months? They have all the answers--someone here said they gave Obama 6 days. Surely a month is generous enough? I have my popcorn ready, and I'm just waiting to hear how they're going to keep tax cuts, avoid raising the debt ceiling, and just which federal programs they think they're going to cut to make up the difference.

Just like the roles being reversed. When you have a Pres of one party and a Congress of another, nothing much gets done. But I will accept their ATTEMPTS. If they make valid attempts it can be called a success. I just want America back to the way it was in the 90's. I really think we did well then. I don't care WHO gets us there.

What do you mean by that? Obama is the president and he still is the leader of the country.

Probably They were probably praying every day for the economy and the country as a whole to go down the drain

Tuesday was a great start!

Now we just need to-

1. cut taxes
2. cut spending
3. raise the retirement age
4. repeal Obamacare
5. block cap and trade
6. enforce immigration laws
7. renegotiate NAFTA and China most favored nation trade status
8. dump Obama in 2012

Until we get a real democratic leader again like Clinton, won't happen.

Republicans want to repeal the minimum wage. In their mind $5 an hour is making "good money"
