me too bob, the guy reminds me a little of Chris Collins from NECN Sports Late Night

and how can anyone keep a straight face and have voted for uncle Ted again for 6 more years? I hope that's it for him

I hope my tax money doesn't pay for any illeagal imigrants anything , make them go away and enter leagally the right way, then follow the laws we have to also. I'm sick of this softness, times are hard and it's time to get tough. Take care of Americans first. I love my country, I want it back.

so now we get ready to get taxed to death

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Yeah Deval sucks, none of the canditates really got me excited. I voted for Healy, but she was nothing special either.

Not a good day for ol' Skippy

Well 16 years of do nothing goveners the people of our state were looking for a change, but I myself do not like the look of things to come, more taxes and flip flop answers. I just don't get what they see in devail, he seems very shadey to me. If I would have voted for Cristy Manhole but that would have been a throw away vote. At least Healy was on the sportsmans side of the issues

From a CNN article on Pelosi - my comments in parenthesis

So what will be on the agenda come January? Pelosi has said that in the first 100 hours of her speakership she will push for action implementing all 9/11 Commission recommendations on national security (ok - good thing), raising the minimum wage to $7.25 (which will be pushed back to consumers, bad for me). eliminating corporate subsidies for oil companies (not sure what this entials, but my gut is that somehow the cost will be pushed back on me, so bad for me), allowing the government to negotiate Medicare drug prices (same as prior comment), imposing new restrictions on lobbyists (ok with me), cutting interest rates on college loans (who is paying for that, most likely me) and supporting embryonic stem-cell research (dont care).

And what about the persnickety allegation that she will skipper tax hikes through the House? Sure she will, said the shoo-in speaker.

"We will revisit the tax cuts at the high end in order to give tax cuts to the middle class," she said. (BS - that tax cuts that went through benefit ALL of us, it benefits those that pay more, more than those that pay less. What you'll do is promise to benefit the middle class, but just repeal the cuts and use the $ to fund the things above whihc are going to cost me!!!!!)

The difference is, Gates actually knows what he's talking about.
Rumsfeld... not so much...

Time to move forward and give these elected officials a chance. This was a shift of the middle (and then some) . Time to see if many of these new elected officials can screw up less than those they replaced.

Now the preasure is ALL on the Dems. They must deliver. They've made a million promises. So they have some high expectations.

Wait till America see's the crap Nancy Pelosi and the house is gonna try and pass. A San Fran Liberal in control of the House
