Keep in mind that your heroes won mainly in the House and they won just a few seats in the Senate. There was no "mandate" in this election for your party.
Poll: No mandate for RepublicansNow, I want to see the Republicans clean up their own mess and fix all the problems they created during the Bush years. Also, the midterm results were quite telling in the numbers who did not vote at all....and why they did not vote. I was actually glad to see so many Bluedogs in the House sent home.

Two messages came across loud and clear. First, “Throw the bums out,’ was the battle cry. The Democrats in charge were not doing their job. But secondly, there was a veiled threat to Republicans. It was not “we love you guys,” but rather “we are going to give you one more chance. Don’t blow it, or we will look for options again in 2012.”
A new Rasmussen poll finds that 59% of voters indicate they will be disappointed with Republicans in Congress before the next national election. Voters are saying that Republicans don’t have their trust, but they are going to have to earn it. Obama has not been a bargain for American taxpayers, but neither was Bush.
Has the President lost his mojo? Democrats are saying there was a failure to communicate. But it really was a fundamental disconnect in not understanding the priorities of many Americans. The healthcare debate crystallized this lack of understanding. A majority of Americans favor the new healthcare plan. But for those who are over 65, 56% oppose any new healthcare proposals. They have Medicare and they don’t want to rock their boat with the threat of cutting Medicare spending.

Boy, isn't this a typical right winged remark. Always on the "offensive," but when it comes to taking the "bull by the horns," they're usually taking a shit behind the barn. (and undoubtedly, drying off their little buns with our constitution... hence, the party of no, no,no,no,no,no,no,no, AND HELL NO!!) Seriously dude, when has the American people, hired the Republican Party to do anything constructive? Most of them, have been scared into having "Big Brother" hold their little hand, while their favorite evangelist, sleeps with their spouse!! If Boner was as serious about passing some decent legislation, as he is playing golf, most americans may go down to working just 40 hours a week, and possibly, have enough leisure time, to get a good suntan like him.
However, I MUST ask you, what are you on, and will it pass a breathilizer?

Oh Christ Buckshot, not another God damn war!!
The Democrats in charge were not doing their job.
Boy, I agree with you there big fella!!... (and I'm a damn proud Progressive too) But you know what a real Progressive would of done in office, to make sure the Dems didn't lose the House? They would of gathered warrants, for the arrest of ALL of PNAC, found guilty of murder, and had ALL of them swinging back and forth like little wind chimes, playing "Amazing Grace." Can ya figure the rest out, you little Patriot (act)?

It was not “we love you guys,”
Oh come on Buckshot, what's not to love??
but rather “we are going to give you one more chance. Don’t blow it, or we will look for options again in 2012
Possibly one of your past "right wing pedophilia politicians" perhaps?
Don’t blow it,
You should of warned them about that, before they committed the crime. (but great advice nevertheless)
O.K... Put Sarah Palin out there!! (God, at least she's over 18)
Don't wait so long between elections Buckshot!!
Come back and "vomit" here, a little more often!!
...but since you won the house, please clean it up before you leave.
We'll be "waiting on the wing." (or under the house, in our bomb shelters, or under the pew at our local church, waiting for the messiah!!)
(I just hope I can count all the wars you "war pigs" are gonna restart, on only one hand this time)
