Perhaps and hopefully to their demise! It`s as if the elections never happened to them. Can you imagine how it would be now, had Romney been successful? Perish the thought. It nothing else this firms up my commitment to keep myself informed about what our officials are up to.

... with copies of the November 6th electoral map.
Pass them out to the GOP Senators, tell them to "review the handouts", come back when they want to do the country's work, and then leave the room.

We know they don't do that. All they are capable of is Paul parroting the demands of their corporate masters.
President Obama would do well to show up with a baseball bat.
After four years we all know what their objectives are and it's not going to change.
Considering the gaff and disrespect he has taken from their ilk, kneecapping a turtle might lift Mr. Obama's sprite.
It sure would brighten up my day.

I also open up with 'I'll take the moon, the stars and the chair you are sitting in'. We can easily compromise from that place. It is incorrect to assume that negotiations begin with capitulation just becasue that's how the Third Way types do it.
