well, as hard is it to say it, we do need the numbers - we need a veto proof Congress to get anything done. If a weak conservative gets in, the people need to strengthen his backbone with public pressure. - no Democrats.
We had the House, Senate AND WH from 2000-2006 - how much immigration reform occurred? How much did they reduce spending? How many more freedoms were lost under the guide of the "Patriot Act", which is anything but? No thanks. Fool me once, shame on you...

But I fail to see what benefit accrues from more of the same with different names and labels.
Getting things done for the sake of "doing something" is insanity, if nothing changes.
"Getting things done" in never an end in itself.
Just think where we might be if Obama got "everything done" that he wished to do for the last six years.
Yes, things could be worse. Hard to imagine perhaps, but since I feel that they can be worse, I will vote to obstruct.
Until something actually changes in politicians; even the "Tea Party" adherents.
