1. Good point, but I'm going to wait until they officially have Congress

and the Boehner is officially the SoH.

3. Why extend them the courtesy they refuse to extend to us?

:shrug:

6. To be honest it is because

I want Boehner to really work to add jobs and not position the Rs just to sink Obama. If there is a flaw to single party government it is that the other Party believes they can do better for their own partisan hacks by working against the party in power instead of cooperating. Rush Limbaugh's statement that he hoped Obama failed is most illustrative of how bad politics can be for the betterment of society. I despise manipulative politicians because they work for power, not the betterment of society and country.

11. You may as well give that up right now...

Boehner has tried to put flies in all of Obama's ointments since day one... it is his main goal in life right now. There's not a snowball's chance in hell he is going to actually work with Obama on anything. If Obama tells him the sky is blue, Boehner will insist it's orange and he'll probably cry for emphasis.

12. Can't disagree there

but I can hope. If these Parties don't start working together for "we the people" I see self destruction of both. Both Parties have gravitated to interests that are not really USA interests.

The Tea Party got a jump on the Ds as an outside influence group of Americans who think that some in their party and outside screwed them. I could buy into the notion that the Tea Party could have been split between conservative and liberals had the Democrats not purposely got on a band wagon claiming they were racists. I see many Ds that are less than satisfied with the current Democratic Party too.

Americans need to become more activist and demand that we take our country back from both Parties and not be giving billions to other countries or waging absurd wars or pandering to corporations that represent world interests.

13. I guess that giving Boehner the benefit of the doubt...

And expecting he might actually play fair is about as likely as Obama's own party playing fair.

I've rethought my assertion... either could happen.
