Their wish? We begged this administration, Congress and the Senate to pay attention to this issue, overspending and other issues. Now it's our fault? LOL Oh no you don't.

You sound like my loser Libertarian friends.
Seriously, what "overspending."
Go and take a look at the Federal Budget, the discretionary spending items.
The only areas which has seen an increase higher than growth and inflation since 2001 are Defense and Homeland Security.
There's "pork barrel" spending, but it amounts to no more than - oh - let's say $30 Billion. Out of a $3 Trillion budget.
The only real spending increase is the drug benefit, which I oppose - but the Democrats wanted to enact a larger one.
The only way, in any case, that the "spending" will ever be brought down is through reform of Social Security and Medicare. And Bush tried - tried harder than any other President in my lifetime - to reform Social Security, and was abandoned by people - including many of you here.
I understand how we are ALL disappointed with the GOP. But IF we lose power, I blame the media for 90% of the losses. Alot of the GOP base is not as tuned in as we are on issues. They do not know the RATS and their anti - American agenda. They just catch the headlines from ABC, CBS and NBC.
That is a huge obstacle for us to climb when they are all coordinated in the attacks on Republicans.
To us republicans have been a disappointment, the average Joe thinks they have been total disasters in every way possible. Thanks to the MSM.
Exactly, many of us were here on FR this spring warning that the GOP would get destroyed in november unless they did an about face on immigration and they didn't.
Now, like then, the Bushbots want to shoot the messenger.
I almost missed that; but if I'm not mistaken, you were or are a proponent of "teaching them a lesson," are you not?
