will actually pass. I think also that there will be a temporary extension of all Bush tax cuts. Personally, I think they should ALL be allowed to expire, and replaced w/ a new system w/ out loopholes. It’s the spending stupid, but so far no signs of life from the Stupid Party.

I read “Obama tax increase”.

I think if the phrase: “tax increase” instead of “tax cut” were used, the voters would “get it”. Possibly even those in Washington?

Senate Republicans are elitists and establishment politicians who did not hear the conservative ascendancy which received its first downpayment in November. Elect conservatives, especially Christian conservatives who have conservatism as their core values and only Republican as a label and party well after other more important things which follow those core values, and we can avoid this problem in the future. It truly is a time where we will identify those who will sell our protection (birthright) for a bowl of porridge. We did not change the Senate in November, but it is only the tone deaf Senators who did not hear the footsteps, the clarion call to sanity and conservatism.

There are other elections coming (2 yrs., 4 yrs, etc.) and we must work hard to elect true conservatives, rather than idiots who have an R label. We must keep those we recently elected informed of our desires to have this country protected, borders secure, taxes reduced, government regulation reduced, individual liberties strengthened and restored, etc.

are truly elitists and belong to the most exclusive country club in the world, the U.S. Senate. The only way to get rid of them is in a grass roots movement that puts good, strong conservative candidates against them in GOP state primaries. We have one in Georgia who needs to be retired.

We need to just give up to these “GOP” Senators. Vote no confidence and start over with them. They just don’t get it! They went in there with a mandate in November and they are already selling out to BO and his schemes. To quote a famous literary queen….”off with their heads!”

to be a RINO. And, you can’t trust them for anything else. If we can get those in the Senate with military backgrounds to tell the RINOs that this is a bad treaty, maybe we can get them on board. But, we must tell all of them that as much as we want the tax cuts extended, we do not want to jeopardize our country to get them. We must tell them that we need and want national security, and that an anti-missile defense is the way to go. And, to give that away to the Russians, and also make us vulnerable to the other nuclear nutcases in the world, is suicide just waiting to happen.

when we need them. We can’t just sit around now that the elections have been won. The election wasn’t the end of the War it was just the first battle. The GOP has got to get the message that We the people are serious. They don’t have that message yet. They are going right back to politics as usual with disregard for the public desires. It is time for the Tea Party or some group with guts to set these people straight. Please God send another huge snow storm to shut congress down for the next three weeks. At least that way we know they are screwing up something. The longer they are out of session the better off the American public is. To get to the subject here the real enemy now is China, N Korea, Iran and any other country that has Nukes. California is more of a threat to our security than Russia is. Putin just wants to lure us to our knees so their buddies can build their weapons and we can’t. And as for them saying Reagan would have signed this treaty is like saying Hitler was really a nice guy. Saying it doesn’t make it so. Reagan wuld have told Putin the same thing he told Gorbachev; Sit down and shut up or I’ll blow you off the map.

Erickson would complain if being hung with a new rope. The Bush tax cut need to be made permanent and the Govt. needs to be funded..These are the first two things that need to be accomplished this year, If those tax cuts expire you can give up any hope of jobs and getting this country back on it’s feet. That’s the reason jobs are few and far between now is that businesses don’t know which way to turn. And the Govt. has to be funded.
Any thing else can be handled by the new congress after the first of the year.
Get your priorities straight Erickson!

It’s hard enough trying to monitor Democratic Socialist shennanigans, but having to continually look over my shoulder to see what mayhem our RINO “representatives” are perpetrating is dispiriting, esasperating and downright draining.

While I’m praying that the infusion of newly elected conservatives like Rand Paul et. al. patriots on the Hill will restore philosophical integrity and sanity within Republican ranks, I’m not at all hopeful. Enemies of the Republic are everywhere and on both sides of the proverbial aisle.

If constitutional and economic order aren’t restored soon under Republican leadership, the 2-party system really is all over. A third party representing the majority right-of-center electorate will be our only recourse.
