I for one am so embarassed at how the republican party and it's supporters have handled our loss of power in this country. You would think we see the writing on the wall that Americans are tired of what we are living in and focus on ways to make our party a better party for America in 2012. But no, we are more focuses on throwing dirt around and digging into conspiracies about Ice Storm relief in Kentucky! Are we serious? Is this what our party has become? I go to my local republican breakfast and I see a bunch of old men who are grumpy and set in thier ways. They dont want to change...why? Lets look at the American people and find out what we need to do to become the great party we once were and not the whining, crying, sore losers we look like right now!
Are you serious with this post? When the government is doing things like we've all seen the past couple weeks, I'm thrilled the GOP has clean hands. The Democrats are throwing nearly a trillion dollars of money we don't even own at Democratic political allies and causes against the will of the majority of Americans who are able to see it for what it is, political payola. Now we have another nanny-gate scandal, but on steroids this time. Doesn't Obama know anyone who hires American domestics and pays ALL their taxes? His new Treasury secretary didn't know how to pay payroll taxes. Now he oversees the IRS?
Whining? Crying? Sore Losers?
You must be very young to not remember the initial arrogance of the Clinton Administration and the answer the voting public gave him in 1994. Obama is off to the same sort of start as the Clinton Administration complete with what was referred to at the time as "a sort of rolling incompetency." We were out of power in 1993 and 1994, and America learned its lesson. But a generation has come of age since then that either doesn't recall or understand what having the Democrats in charge of the entire government was like. It was a hard lesson for the nation to learn then, and it would seem we are now covering the same ground. Look for a second Republican Revolution in 2010.

To paraphrase Palin Oh say it ain't so Mo there you go again, nothing wrong with Reagans and Bush driving us into the deep abyss in regards to debt. Instead you complain about a president with a balanced budget.

Unfortunately for you, they DO understand ALL TOO WELL what eight years of living under a bunch of Republicans is like. Hello, disgrace. Come on in, disaster. Who would want to go through anymore of THAT!!!

Are you kidding? You must be joking! If the GOP has clean hands it is because they wiped the crap off their hands on the heads of the American people. A few post back I gave a link to a list of corrupt and criminal Republicans...takes a bit of time to read thru it. You complain about tax problems with the Democrats? What a rap sheet on the GOP!

Obama couldn't do anything right for you neo-cons. No matter what he did, you would be carping--and conveniently ignoring the truly horrendous behavior on the part of Bush and his neo-cons. The sad fact is that, like Rush Limbaugh, you people are rabid for Obama to fail.
There will be NO "Republican Revolution" in 2010. The American people aren't stupid. They know this nightmare is the result of Bush and the so-called "Republican" Party. Our nation is in shambles, and you seriously think that Americans are going to vote in a bunch of insane drill-baby-drill, fundamentalist, right-wing idiots? Because of your Party, it will be YEARS before we get out of this mess--no matter who was President. But if you want to keep living in denial and/or outright lying about the past 8 years of the worst Presidency in the history of the United States, and tear down President Obama at every move he makes, you go right ahead. Nasty and vindictive Americans like you we can do without.

Despite all the politics of the last week by the GOP, Obama is still at 63% approval.

Actually, I think they've handled it a lot better than the dems have handled it in the past but, that's not the point I wish to make. I think the problem is that the party not in control spends all their time and effort figuring out how to get back in control, rather than working with the other party to get things resolved (and both parties are guilty of it). There's not enough give and take....compromises. Although I also realize it's difficult for a politician to do that even a little bit because, no sooner than they do, they get accused of siding with the enemy (so to speak) by each party's core members.
