Also, 69% believe Dems are swinging too far left already. Just shown on Fox. Newsweek/WoPo poll (I believe). How the !@#$%^&* can this be reconciled with last week's election?
Where were these dolts a week ago?!!!!
As Pete Hoekstra just said "Where were these people last week?"
I hate to say it but our party didn't show up last week and now they are freaking scared of the Dems! They should have been scared of the Dems before the election!
ya gets da govment ya votes fer. we elected dem, we're stuck wit em!
America,
You voted these assholes in. Live with it!!!!!!!
Voting.

The muslim vote flipped, plus millions more immigrants for pity's sake!!! IMO there should be all out war on integrating muslims and others by banning religious headdress, and other laws as well.
These noble independents and even more noble libertarians were "voting their convictions".
They have landed us in a genuine quagmire.
Idiot people.
Two things happened. One, there is a group of people who thought divided government sounded like a niffty idea. Problem is, they had no idea what has happened to the democrat party since the Clintons arrive on the scene, they just weren't paying attention.
The other group thought they would register their little protest vote so they could feel like they were rebeling against their concress critter but they assumed their fellow voters would be more level headed. SURPRISE!
I guess they ought to get used to it. Too late for now.
The dems haven't taken over for Pete's sake. They have just 50% of the House and Senate. Republicans have 50% of the House and the Senate PLUS the White House!
Too late now
The people voted and now they are going to choke on it
Note: "blogged by JC" is Congressman John Conyers himself. He has a bill up already, HR 288; that singles out Islam as needing special protection in the US. Conyers district is the largest Muslim district in America. Congressman Conyers is going to be the Chairman of the powerful House Judiciary Committee under Nancy Pelosi. These guys are not even trying to hide their agenda anymore.

Text of My Resolution Regarding Religious Intolerance
Below in the extended entry is the full text of H. Res. 288. I hope you agree that read in its totality, it is a fair and appropriate resolution.
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives condemning bigotry and religious intolerance, and recognizing that holy books of every religion should be treated with dignity and respect.
Whereas believers of all religions, including the Abraham faiths of Christianity, Judaism and Islam, should be treated with respect and dignity;
Whereas the word Islam comes from the Arabic root word meaning “peace” and “submission”;
Whereas there are an estimated 7,000,000 Muslims in America, from a wide variety of ethnic backgrounds, forming an integral part of the social fabric of America;
Whereas the Quran is the holy book for Muslims who recite passages from it in prayer and learn valuable lessons about peace, humanity and spirituality;
Whereas it should never be official policy of the United States Government to disparage the Quran, Islam, or any religion in any way, shape, or form;
Whereas mistreatment of prisoners and disrespect toward the holy book of any religion is unacceptable and against civilized humanity;
Whereas the infringement of an individual’s right to freedom of religion violates the Constitution and laws of the United States: Now, therefore, be it
1 Resolved, That the House of Representatives–
(1) condemns bigotry, acts of violence, and intolerance against any religious group, including our friends, neighbors, and citizens of the Islamic faith;
(2) declares that the civil rights and civil liberties of all individuals, including those of the Islamic faith, should be protected;
(3) recognizes that the Quran, the holy book of Islam, as any other holy book of any religion, should be treated with dignity and respect; and
(4) calls upon local, State, and Federal authorities to work to prevent bias-motivated crimes and acts against all individuals, including those of the Islamic faith.
Where were these dolts a week ago?!!!!

Excellent question. It did not take them very long to figure out what they did, did it ???
Watch the poll-loving Democrats "moderate" soon.
When the freshmen Democrats, their own conservative wing, gets wind of this from constituents, reality may set in that being too liberal will hurt us all.
