It’s democracy, folks. The American people elected these bums to lead us. It’s their legal right to do. OK; go ahead. Lead. Let them pass their legislation.
Either it does the country good, and we all benefit (yeah, right) or it does the country harm. It’s up to the American people to act appropriately.
I believe we should let them ram through their bad bills. Vote against them, but don’t obstruct them. The dems are going to ruin this country. Right now there is simply no stopping it. If the Republicans try to stop them through obstructionist parliamentarian tactics, guess who is going to get blamed for the disaster?
The Republicans ARE to blame for the destruction of the country. We gave them a chance to.... Wait, I’m wrong, worldly Christians are the blame for the destruction of the country. I’m a member of that group. LORD forgive me.
I think they should walk out and hold press conferences when the bills are bad. The Republicans have no ability to obstruct in the House.
In order to win back seats, the Dems need to take all the credit because it is going to hurt the American consumer in the end.
I would have zero respect for Republicans if they put their own agenda above what is best for the Country. Remember that every Congressman represents a District and some of those districts went Dem when that candidate went conservative. We need to be able to show in the 2010 election that those ‘conservative’ Dems are not only not conservative but are supporters of the left wing Pelosi. That is how you win elections — grassroots and getting good candidates that start today taking on the Dem in their district showing them not to be conservative but a puppet of Pelosi. No whining but action.
We had a Dem Congress during Reagan but in 1994 after Clinton was in office for two years we took back the House for the first time in many years. Contract with America was not based on social issues but on sound economics and doing what was best for America not an individual Congressman. Those voluntary three-term limits hurt us in the end and gave seats back to the Dems. Time to mobilize in those districts that have gone Republican and take them back.
Time for people on here to stop the whine and run for precinct chair so you have access to voter records and can spend the next two years checking your precinct to determine that every voter is legit. In Oklahoma after ACORN was here in my OK House District we found numerous fraudulent voters which were removed. It is up to the grassroots to start taking action.
Go to meetings of your Dem Congressman and ask questions, call their office to complain, etc. Take action starting today. Let their offices (local and DC) know you are watching every move in these districts that have gone Republican.
Most importantly get behind good fiscal conservatives that want to take the seat back. We have seen it here in OK that social conservatives do not make the best representatives. The conservatives who make the best reps are fiscal and social with emphasis on fiscal. Too many social conservatives get involved in social issues only and forget that we are supposed to be for limited government. All they care about is their agenda instead of what is best for their constituents. Inhofe and Coburn are big fiscal conservatives but also social conservatives but when you hear them talk it is about fiscal issues. People listen when it hits their wallets and we are about to see how bad it is going to get.

Like you I blame the dems more than the rinos but the truth is it is a done deal, they aren’t “going to ruin this country”, it is already ruined. I have seen it happening for forty years and more and I decided long ago that there was no way it was going to be stopped. It is like watching a red spot turn into a swelling and then develop a yellow head, it is now in the process of popping and oozing puss all over everything.
