I think the next Congress has a LOT of work cut out for them trying to repeal all of the crap from the last Congress. :(
The dread fear in the pit of our collective stomach is that the leadership of this country is so deeply entrenched in its elitist control of every aspect of our culture that nothing will change.
RINO, establishment Republicans are busy setting traps for Tea Party members. None have been appointed chairpersons of standing committees. Leftists, as always are better on defense than Conservatives. They will work tirelessly to smear and defeat every effort to dismantle their brave new world.
The people have spoken loud and clear these past 2 years in absolute oppposition to every mandate passed by the Pelosi/Reid/Obama conspiracy. The people have been ignored again and again.
We have elected many fine Americans with the promise that they will turn this train wreck around. Will we see these newly minted Congress people corrupted and marginalized? That is our greatest fear.
The bright light that shone in the Tea Party this past year will not be dimmed regardless of the likely failure of government to reign itself in. We will learn that elections are not enough. We will find the means to starve the beast, tame it and cage it with the iron bars of our Constitution.
We may not yet have developed the tactics to win this war but it will be won. Government will not rule this nation. The people will rule themselves with justice, decency, respect and a hard fisted commitment to the rule of moral law.

Here is hoping that our people in the House don’t get fooled by the Democrat’s call for and champion compromise. It is just a tactic to get us to go along with their socialist wayss
The Democrats keep talking about compromise as if compromise is always a good thing under any and all circumstances. Compromise is like alcohol. A glass or two now and then is cool. Guzzling down cases of “two buck chuck” is disgusting. So a compromise would be only a half a case, that is enabling the drunk.
The road that the progressives in Congress , Obama, and his group of socialists/Marxist Czars and appointees are taking America down a road that is directly in the opposite direction the people want to travel. In the past two years we have witnessed a huge growth of government, unprecedented deficit spending, and loss of freedom, and liberty that has brought us too close to USSR style socialism. This trend was aided and abetted by an elite group of career politicians who are totally out of touch with the reality of life of the American people. They have totally discarded our Constitution and the reason why this land divorced itself from a top down style of governing.
How can there be bi-party-ism if compromise is impossible without trashing the Constitution and abandonment of our core values? If self-reliance, liberty, and pursuit of individual happiness is to survive how can we compromise with the Marxist edict of “to each one’s need and each one’s ability”. That means distributing the wealth? That type of a system cannot survive even in a dictatorship, as we have seen with the Soviet Union and the Iron Curtain countries?
If things play out the way I imagine House Republicans will use their majority investigative committees (and the alternative media) to keep Obama’s agenda unpopular looking towards 2012.
The MSM will be trying to pressure the RINOS to cut deals with Democrats as we saw with Lame Duck Session for one purpose: get Obama re-elected. They will keep on saying that it is in Republicans best interests to compromise and that the voters dont want investigations into government waste and anti-job impacts. But they never said this when Bush was President. And they will report the really bad sounding stuff themselves if it makes a good story.
