While I remain steadfast behind the President, despite his MANY shortcomings, there are many on this board, [20% or so] who would rather see Pelosi Ligosi as Speaker and Scary Harry as the Majority leader than support the GOP.

Thank God our founding fathers were NOT all single issue voters!!

Thank God our founding fathers were NOT all blind in one eye and couldn't see out of the other but yet were still prone to leaping to conclusions.

Many of are expressing our anger and outrage over MANY issues, not just one. This isn't meant to be idle bitching, but a warning to the GOP powers that be that there is serious displeasure and unrest and they had better take these warnings seriously.

We don't want Pelosi or Reid or any Democrat in charge of anything, but we most assuredly do not want Republicans who won't stand up to them either. Despite our biggest edge in 40 years in the Senate, you wouldn't even know that we are the majority. That's not what we wanted. That's not what we were told that we would get by voting the pubbies into office.

As long as there are people who say, "Gee whiz fellas, I'm not happy but you sure are better than the other guys so I'm gonna vote you back in." we will never make any headway. These guys had better be afraid for their jobs. That's what they value most and they used us and our issues to get there. If they want to go back to these cushy jobs, they had better get of their fat asses and do something. We didn't vote for the Party, we voted to advance principle.
