Isn’t it odd how this idea never came up when the Dems had the majority?
An excellent criticism of the SOTU gaiety that lies ahead.
Look at the bright side... Now, if someone rightly yells out and calls him a liar, we won’t know right away which party it came from.
Other than that, this has to be one of the dumbest stunts I’ve ever heard of. I can’t believe the Rs are taking the bait on this... Well, yeah I can. You’d think we have a bunch of stupid teens in charge up there.
Now the sitting GOPers will be getting to view the 6 of the ‘rat in front of them. I say let the ‘rats sit in the back of the bus.
Unfortunately the Repups appear to be ready to repeat the follies of 1995; timidity and symbolic gestures in place of the kind of bare nuckle confrontation with the rat party that is required. The new Speaker has pretty much indicated that todays vote on Obama Care is as far as he will go. No strategy to attach the same verbiage to EVERY major bill that goes forward. Also talk of defunding major fed programs has gone silent. OIn top of this the Tea Party movement (at least in SE Louisiana) has gone into pretty near comatose state since Nov. Leading one to conclude it was financed as a Repub vote getting vehicle and much of its leadership have their direction to shut up until 2012. I hope i am wrong but I have seen the Repubs punk out over and over again. They simply don’t have the mindset for what amounts to a war without the shooting that the Dems fully grasp as the nature of politics. One has to have a very strong set of philosophical values and a steel gut to avoid being coopted by the inside the Beltway moral vortex. How many of these folks really have that kind of iron will is problematicIf the class of 2010 becomes another bunch of slubs as in 1995 there will be real h-ll to pay with the voters who sent them to DC to fight the rats and not make nice.

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.
Republicans should all wear red seersucker suits!
