We don't need to act like they did.

Let's not lower ourselves to that disgusting level.

They didn't listen to use since we were told to shut up. Now it is time to listen and take note.

Elections have consequences, Democrats need to just sit quietly in the back of the bus and let people fix what they've destroyed.

The majority of people demand the GOP stop the loons from spending our time working on food programs and crap instead of working on solutions to fix the mess the dems have put us in over the last 4 years.

The PEOPLE run the country and they voted OUT the dems in huge numbers because the dems did not want to listen to the people.

The loons have had 4 years to get something done and worked almost 2 years on a scam HC bill leaving millions of Americans without a job.

Time for them to sit down and shut up and that includes the idiot in the WH.

Why are the dems working on food programs right now? Instead of jobs?

Shows they have their priorities screwed up.


4 years the dems controlled congress and now they want to work on something important? 2 years they had TOTAL control and still got nothing done.

No wonder liberalism is dying in America thank goodness.

Good one.

Get the heck in the back of the bus, you had your turn and screwed it up badly.

Now we have to come in a fix the two recessions in 4 years under the dems watch.

You are absolutely correct. Elections do have consequences.

Lets all sit back quietly & watch what is accomplished. Or not.
In fact if Obama is a one term president I hope the Republicans win everything.
Lets see where they vote......& just exactly who pays for it.
Go for it Boys.

A little congressional instruction for you. Doesn't matter how many bills get passed by the Senate, they go NOWHERE unless the House passes them as well and vice versa.

The HOUSE controls the purse strings, i.e., the MONEY. They don't have to fund anything they don't want to fund. If obama wants to shut down the government because funding has been cut for certain aspects of obamacare, bring it on.

Btw, the filibuster is used by the MINORITY to stop the majority from going forward with unpopular legislation. So yes indeed, the power of the filibuster will be enhanced...for the GOP, because now instead of 41, they will have more than enough at 47 seats to stop whatever they want to stop.

You are kidding? The Republicans have been running the show for 2 years. Do you really think Hairy Read and Obama have even 1/8th the manhood and guts that McConnell and Boehner have?? Not even close! They will do as they have done the past 2 years and fully cave into every Republican demand.
