"We conservatives expected postelection results after 2000, 2002, and 2004. Never happened."

What exactly did you want? You got 2 conservative Supreme Court Justices, lower tax brackets, a strong foreign policy... and then the Conservatives blew it this election by leting the DEMs in and now you are going to get a pro gay marriage Supreme Court Judge!

What exactly did you want?

"What exactly did you want?"

Fiscal responsibility. And something done about the Borders.

I'll tell you what I wanted and didn't get.

A social security or national pension system that not based on demographic slight of hand and outright fraud and dishonesty. That didn't seem to be too much to ask. If we can't fix this system when we control both houses of Congress and the Presidency, just when might it become possible?

A national income tax or national sales tax based on a simple non-progressive rate without the complexity and obscurity that make the tax code a fertile field for corruption and cash for favors. Same question. If not when we're in full control, then just when?

Just those two would have satisfied me. I could overlook a lot if I saw just those two things passed into law.
