Default GOP is kicking ass...

That is all I'm going to say on the subject.

No Senate but that was a pipedream anyway. Wonder how much spite legislation gets passed before the changeover

i'll be interested to see how prop 19 did in the morning. just checked and it's down 55-45 or something like that but only 17% of precincts reporting.

Prop 19 isn't going to pass...its currently 60/40 against/for. The problem is every politician is against it (I guess it isn't a family thing).

It's getting higher and higher support each year though...

My hope is that the GOP remembers that they are winning not because of their social policy but simply because between Obamacare and Obama incredibly irresponsible spending. GOP you got my Vote this time Stay out of our Bodies and Bedrooms

This is actually the way I like things with the exception of the senate. Heavily influenced republican policy is the only way it leaves congress, but the democrat president will veto anything too extremist. It forces them to be centrist or they can't do shit to us. I think it works better than democrat congress/republican president.

So I guess we have a few years of pointless "values" legislation being put up for vote

"HR ##XXX Keep America virgins pure act of 2011"
Summary - blah blah blah blah

(buried deep in the bill
----------------
Subsection 2394
Appropriate 90 Million for Heartland Museum
Appropriate 120 Million education grant to fund Creation Science textbooks
Mandate Creation be taught in biology and history


(President vetoes the bill)

All over Foxnews and Wallstreet Journal Republicans scream how Obama and his Obamacare want s to deflower all the pure Christian Virgins


2011 - 8 Special Committees are formed to investigate
Bailouts
"Obamacare"
Allegations of Obama not being a citizen
Allegations that Obama is a muslim
Allegations that Obama had a cigarette in a government building

The new guys on the hill will hold press conferences on how they are going to cut spending and fight obamacare (right before they up spending and do nothing)


I'm glad Pelosi is out though I'm not some idiot who paints her as some sort of demonic entity. She just did poor job of running things and got caught up in the us vs them (Its just like football or wrestling - we have to win win win!!) bullshit the Republicans love so much.

Unfortunately Boehner is an idiot. A genuine idiot.

I can't stand the woman...period and yes she did a $hitty job.

I'm also not a registered Republican so I'm not dancing in the streets for them either but closer to that party than I am the Democrats.
