What should be their first set of priorities?
There is a lot of corruption that needs to be rooted out and exposed.
Not just 0bama, but Pelosi, too. Republicans need to get their hands on the documents. Notice I didn’t say “impeach.” I think there would need to be a very serious scandal for that, and a clear path to conviction in the senate. House Republicans were too gung-ho in the late ‘90s. It wasn’t the investigations that hurt them, it was the weak case for impeachment, and the subsequent losing control of the debate that inevitably followed.
Cut spending to 6% of GDP plus the Military.
Of all of these, I think the third bullet, slashing the government, is the most important. That will lead to stimulating the economy, balancing the budget, tax reforms, and if they privatize things like even a border security contract, take care of illegal immigration too.
Another way is to investigate him and have him declared him ineligible to serve as President!
That will turn all his accomplishments NULL and VOID! Obamacare and others will cease to exist!
Don’t wake me up! I’m having a wonderful dream!
stomp guts
Impeach Obama, & Pelosi (what did she know and when did she know it) and repeal Obamacare, fire judges and Supremes, and do an independent investigation into the Department of Justice. Put Barney Frank, Maxine Waters, and lots more in jail where they belong.
All of it, All at once.
The fact is Republicans can’t repeal 0bamaCare in 2010.
There will not be the votes to override a presidential veto, or even a Democrat filibuster in the Senate.
So it is a mistake to set the expectations that high.
Republicans can defund it in the House, and investigate every aspect of it, how the deals were cut, how 0bama strong armed industry support, etc.
If they investigate it, they will expose the seedy underbelly of 0bamaCare, and that will turn. It into a posterchild for graft and corruption which will undermine 0bama and the 2012 Democrats, paving the way for real repeal and replacement in 2015 under a new president and Republican Senate majority.
But they need to do the groundwork first, which starts with investigations in the House.
Repeal Obamacare.
Put OBAMA ON THE SPOT. Pass laws that’ll go before Obama to sign, veto, or “vote absent” (let pass into law without signing) that set Zero up and Congress for 2012.
This would include: Troops to the border! Naming Ground Zero area a National Historic Site and disallow the Mosque. Cut taxes (Make the Bush tax cuts permanent). Cut red tape for small business (that crazy tax mandating 1099 for every transaction).
Cut, cut, cut.
Put Zero on the spot again and again.
Investigate the Black Panther case.
Term limits? Would be nice!
Go on the offense. Have an active agenda and dismantle everything Obama’s first 2 years put in place.
that first..then track down the money they stole.
Nobody’s repealin’ anythin’ anywhere. ...not ObamaCare...not ‘Bammy himself.
Obama is the best thing to hit DC since the New Deal itself. Period. End of story. He just dished almost 2 trillion worth at the DC trough. Those pigs know when they’ve a good thing goin’, and they won’t let him get too far away. He will be re-elected ..even if he does NOTHING else, just for doin’ that.
Repeal and replace in 2013, I mean.
Reverse other assinine Federal programs that are bankrupting Americans.
SHRINK GOVERNMENT SIZE AND POWER.
BUILD THE DAMN FENCE AND BEGIN THE DEPORTATIONS OF ILLEGAL CRIMINALS.
Allow Arizona and all other states the right of the police to detain illegal aliens and turn them over to ICE.
Open investigations into Obama's corrupt regime and begin the IMPEACHMENT process.
Peel back every federal law that tends to suppress the public expression of Christianity.
MAKE ABORTION ILLEGAL.
Obliterate Affirmative Action and other similar programs that grossly discriminate against white males.
Either rid the U.S. of "hate" crimes altogether, (prefferred), or else make them equal right accross the board, including the prosecution of blacks when they discriminate or commit crimes against whites.
MAKE ENGLISH THE OFFICIAL OF AMERICA, AND ENACT LAWS THAT WILL ENSURE IMMIGRANTS LEARN ENGLISH SO THEY CAN OBEY OUR LAWS, ESPECIALLY OUR TRAFFIC LAWS.
Weed out and dismiss, wherever possible, the radical Leftists in government who would turn the U.S. into Cuba.
NEVER AGAIN FALL ASLEEP AT THE WHEEL, BECAUSE THE RADICAL LEFT IS ALWAYS AWAKE AND WORKING TO OVERTHROW THE U.S.
we are still screwed.
Repeal Obamacare and everything else they have done. Give us real tax cuts; not just a cap, Pay off the debt. Get rid of the commerce clause and investigate and throw some crooks in jail. Drill, baby drill and CLOSE THE DAMN BORDER. Deport, deport and deport (anchor babies included). Send the Muslims packing.Get rid of some departments like education, EPA and other monsters.
Defund, defund and defund. There’s so much.
Their priority will be bipartisanship and letting rats keep a disproportionate number of committee seats.
Build up our military and give them what they need.
Hopefully, there will be a number of new Republicans.
Well, I do think the Justice Department needs investigating.
slash wages of Federal Employees
