House Republicans have been relatively successful this week at presenting a united front around their Pledge to America, but only through a strategic outreach campaign to lawmakers, media and outside groups, that has managed to keep deep dissatisfaction over several key issues largely under wraps.
Still, interviews with Republican aides reveal that many in the GOP caucus are unhappy that there was no earmark ban and no promise to pass a balanced budget amendment in the proposal, which was unveiled Thursday by House Minority Leader John Boehner.

Why do you think the GOP leadership will fulfill all of its promises when it did not do it before? For one thing catnip, I never said anything to you...
Second thing, since you posted me I figure you must know what a zot is. If you didn't you would've of left me alone...So that makes you a retread.
To answer your question, I don't believe anything a politician says until I see results.

The GOP leadership keeps trying to install the Liberal planks of Homosexual ‘rights’ and abortion.
Guess what, the people are overwhelmingly AGAINST homosexual marriage.
Proposition 8 showed just how bad of a smackdown homosexual rights get if put to a vote.
