That’s a possibility that I never considered and it might just be what the GOP should do.

Thanks for your compliment. The Dems would never let an opportunity like this pass. GOP should say flat out we are trying to be civil to the other side, despite all the dirty rhetoric they spew out. Then today on the House floor the “gentleman” from Tenn. calls us nazis and engages in some sleazy name calling. We will NOT allow bipartisan seating at SOTU. The elites and the “news” media would go wild but it just might resonate with their base, and independents will be turned off by this shocking show of incivility by a congressional Dem.

This entire mixed seating idea is a joke. I cannot believe, after all the rhetoric about how we Republicans are going to fight and not be the same ole Republican RINO pansies, the first opportunity - THE FIRST - they crumble.
To: KansasGirl
It is nauseating, and I wont be watching. Republicans are fools to go along with this.I think the democrats are trying to pull the ole oke doke.
To: jazusamo
I said back in ‘06 that the Republican Party was going to have to get a lot smaller before it gets bigger. That may still be true.

"I cannot believe, after all the rhetoric about how we Republicans are going to fight and not be the same ole Republican RINO pansies, the first opportunity - THE FIRST - they crumble." Tell me. Are the Republican's actually going to go with the leftist seating arrangement scheme? I've heard it was proposed but didn't think they were actually going to do it.

I'd love for them to show up for the SOTU and start loudly telling Democrats to return to the seats they were elected to, that it was Pelosi and Reid who made Congress in general stink, and that they, the Republicans, weren't elected just to become part of the general stink again.

I have seen zero evidence the Rep have taken the bait on this, with the exception of possibly 3 of them who have made favorable comments.
I don’t see this happening at all.
To: robowombat
And then there is the story in “The Daily Caller”, this A.M. claiming the Rep are readying a long term plan to cut over TWO TRILLION from spending.

What say rather then being knee jerk defeatists as so many here are on such a regular basis, we give them more then 15 or so days to begin to accomplish what they have indicated they would.
And why should Boehner announce in advance all he will do and the methods he will use? All that does is allow the media to jump on it in an effort to turn opinion against it using their own interpertation of the facts (rather then the truth) before it is even made public.

Yes, I remember that now that you mention it. I was appalled when that happened and really ticked, the Rats have no class.
