They proved it already, did they? They are still more than a month from even opening the first session of their majority Congress, and you have already written them off?
This is the first time conservatives have had a majority. Remember, the Democrats took 60 years and majorities as large as 77-19 to f*** things up so badly. But you've alrwady written off the Republicans.
Pathetic.
And I ain't referring to the GOP.
"[T]he first session of their majority Congress"? Where have you been since '94?
But you've alrwady written off the Republicans. Pathetic. And I ain't referring to the GOP.
"Pathetic" describes what the GOP has even attempted -- much less done -- with a majority in both houses of Congress since 1994 (with the exception of the first two years without Jumpin' Jim Jeffords). We even got the White House in 2000, and still managed to pass only a token tax cut that piddles out after a few years. (Talk about adding insult to injury, Congress rarely ever puts sunset clauses on new taxes. Now, they put them on tax cuts?!)
The Contract With America was the beginning and the end of the conservative Congress. After 10 years of Republican rule, Bloated Big Government remains every bit as much the theme in DC today as it ever was. That's "pathetic."
