No prisoners!
We need to reduce spending. We need budget cuts. For me, NPR is the test (highlighted by Juan Williams, the egregiously biased nature of NPR cannot be denied).
If Republicans cannot succeed in defunding a small, unimportant, and unpopular program like NPR, then we have no hope of cutting anything at all. NPR is the low-hanging fruit of budget cuts. If the 2011 congress cannot touch it, then we will see bigger deficits and higher taxes in out future, even after the big Tea Party Tsunami of 2010.
Does "no compromise" mean holding fast and blocking everything? That won't get us very far, and it won't look good ("Party of No").
But if we take a principled stand and try (at least try) to cut, cut, cut, cut -- then maybe we can get somewhere.
With Obama and the LSM, it gets so hard to tell reality from parody.

ORLY?
Boehner knows that a Republican tsunami on Nov. 2 will not be a call for Demonrat Lite.
You will be taking office just in time to get blamed for the economic crash.
If you do not take the immediate offensive you will get creamed in 2012. No compromise. Make sure O is hobbled and immobile, unable to do a thing for the remaining two years of his term of office.
Start immediately to audit Fannie Mae, and nail down for the public record exactly what caused the collapse. Considering that the head of it pocketed $90 million in bonuses while the whole thing was coming apart at the seams, it looks like someone should be in jail right now or else we owe Madoff an apology.
And start an honest campaign for energy independence, which should be our theme in 2012. That, along with radically reducing the size of the central government, is what we need to turn this country around. We can’t do it while O occupies the office, but we should start beating the drum and start the 2012 campaign on November 3.
A new word. I like it.
Hold their feet to the fire!
He will THEN get the BLAME not a do nothing Congress..
As one bill get vetoed, they should pass another one like clockwork..
Keep them busy shagging the de-engineering crews efforts..
NOT omnibus bills/laws but separate bills that must be vetoed..
Tire them out.. overwhelm them.. i.e. Anti-Cloward-Piven..
If they make a mistake.. VIOLA!... one less bureaucracy...
GO TO (A)..
I’ll believe tough talk from Boehner when I see him back it up with action. I’ve heard this line from him before...and I still don’t trust him after he got caught literally buying votes on the house floor with campaign contributions.
