Ha, ha. Dishonesty seems to be the currency of the Democrats and in particular, Barack Obama. I cannot see that they would forsake that at this late stage.

I just hope that all the legislation that has been passed and any that does get passed by these "lame ducks" can be repealed. Then a conservative administration and congress can start to rebuild America as it is meant to be.

Perhaps we can look forward to some sanity from SCOTUS as the lawsuits against these unconstitutional legislative debaucles from the states and other plaintiffs make their way before their bench.

Democrats do not know how to win wihout cheating.

Even if they could win without cheating, they would still cheat to win.

Prior to their ouster, Demoncrats who will be moving on next year could very well agree to such a pledge. But if the arm twisting, bribery and threats don't work, an Executive Order will surely provide the reassurance needed to change one's mind.

I believe you might be short changing this administration. You might consider the possibility that in a lame duck session, Congress could vote on "reform" that basically reduces much of its own power and vests it in the executive branch. Consider, for example, the recent financial reform bill which, as I understand, takes Congress out of the loop to a great extent and creates a general framework within which the executive branch can operate, being granted broad powers.

Shame won't work. Neither will bringing it up with them now vs. later. Threats of physical harm--now, that might do the trick. Hey, if they want to play Chicago-style politics, then they have to understand that they're putting their own kneecaps at risk...

There is no doubt in my military mind that this administration would do anything to achieve their twisted agenda.

Those that do not hold a fear of God may need to feel a strong fear of the gun and the rope.

Not a threat but a promise as old as dirt.

Their only safety is in the Constitution itself.

Tom Clancy had the only idea that would actually

clean out congress in one of his novels as some

of the career RINOs like Lindsey Graham and others

are as worthless as teats on a boar hog.

Now comes the time for REAL conservatives to stand up.

If Republicans fail to rescind or recall EVERY single bill passed or altered between the Nov election and the swearing in of Jan 2011 they will show themselves to be less than conservative.

In fact they will prove to the electorate that they are no better than the Democrats they replace, and well deserving of the same treatment (expulsion from office) at first opportunity.

Can you spot what is wrong with the following? "It is still possible for the gaffe-happy Republicans to blow it. When the ranking member of the House Energy and Commerce Committee publicly apologizes to the corporation that unleashed the worst oil spill in American history, you know the Republicans are capable of just about anything."

I don't know about you, Charles, but I haven't seen a forensic report on the oil spill yet that precisely identifies the cause and responsibility of the spill. You know, the report that walks us through the events of the weeks, days and hours leading up to the spill, and who did what and when. WE DON'T KNOW if BP is the party responsible, yet you like so many other thoughtless (and opportunistic?) people carelessly assign blame where your prejudices lie.

However, what is very, very obvious is that Obama dragged and stamped his feet to the point where a salvageable situation was turned into a historical disaster solely because of Obama's lethal combination of inaction and obstruction. On top of that, BP was unfairly scapegoated by Obama without any evidence, and shaken down for extensive financial damages outside the due process of law. THAT is the basis of the apology made to BP, and I am completely satisfied that the apology was fair and appropriate.

Please think very carefully before you advance heavy moral judgments in public on nothing but your own ignorance and prejudice. You are in a responsible position, and many honest people look to you for sensible leadership and guidance. I strongly suggest you apologize immediately to that highly principled member of the House Energy and Commerce Committee. Then you should apologize to the Republican Party. They deserve far better than how you have treated them.

Make no mistake about it, there is a 'Revolution' in our near future.! Let's pray that it will be resolved by "Ballots"!!!!

The Narcissistic,Socio/communist,Anti Christion,Mind-set that some evil wind has blown into the halls of Government cannot possibly co-exist with the standards set forth by the Founders and the Constitution they devised through divine inspiration.

We the people will have to deal with the lame duck session results if there is a session just like we are dealing with the legislation that has occurred in the last year and a half. Until all Americans, democrats and republicans alike, can see the true picture of what our country needs to return to

one of prosperity, security, operating within the

constitution, protection of spiritual rights for Christians too, we will be living with the consequences of unprincipled leadership of presidents and congressmen. I don't trust republicans anymore that I do democrats. When the congress starts living like the rest of us and not

with all the perks and benefits they have voted in for themselves, and are exempt from the ones they have voted in for us, the electorate, then they will begin to receive the trust and support from me.
