"Government spending" to Dems is "tax cuts".

They will be sure to hold those in check.

DEMS PLEDGE TO SCRUTINIZE BIG BUSINESS

Why not the small ones? Isn't that discrimination?


Don't worry. Small Businesses will get theirs too under the "New" Democrats - it's called a "roll-back" of tax cuts for the so-called "rich". And since the federal government ain't Wal*Mart, roll-backs aren't a good thing.

I'm thinking that after about 6 months, the MSM will get bored with her and the gang, and start checking them out too.

I mean face it, what reason is there to keep going after Bush now?

This is barring a Watergate redo of course.

The biggest fears we have about the economy are inflation, unemployment, costly lawsuits and regualtion, higher taxes and fuel costs, high medical expenses, increasing interest rates. Gee, doesn`t that sound like San Fran Nancy`s economic plan?

First order of the day: attack all of the big Republican corporate sponsors!

Second order of the day: enact legislation moving money around to Democrat sponsors!

Third order of the day: Scrap the fence idea and let the mass migration of next year's new voters begin!

Time to boycott those business she has a stake in. Plus look for corruption within them and those who manage them.

They need to keep kicking Bush to keep your eyes off the things the Dims are actually doing.

Did they even mention any of this during their campaigns? I'll be honest, I wasn't listening to what they were saying, but I get the impression they've gone crazy with power.

Remember these numbers: 60, 67 and 291. 60 votes needed to end a filibuster (Dems have 51), 67 and 291 the numbers of votes in the Senate and the House to override a Presidential veto. Think the Dems need to refer to their pocket editions of the Constitution. Dems played delay and block for the last six years. Now it's our turn. Bottomline: they have to play nice if they are going to get anything enacted. Bush still controls the ball. Oh, and if they block his judical appointments he only has to wait until they recess and then recess appoint them using his Constitution powers.
