My point is this does not bode well for any of us......

you are so right cologal! i am guessing that a failure to deal with anything substantial is going to be the definition of our new stability! that might turn out to be a good thing?
i am hoping the both obama and the republicans are blustering - for now. i don't think either wants to show their hand while a lame duck congress has yet to deal with anything. if i were boehner or mcconnell or demint i would not commit to anything at this time either.
and where ajack posted "Obama doesn't know the meaning of compromise. His arrogance is blind to such things. He looks down his nose at people." ... well, in my opinion, john boehner is anything but humble! he has shown his arrogant side, too [do you think his tears were real the other night? i figure they're as real as his tan!]...as did mcconnell when he said his only job was going to be to make sure obama only served one term! no one is showing that they have caught on to the will of the people!
the new cast of political characters is driving me as crazy as the campaigns did - i am switching my television viewing to the hallmark, hgtv and lifetime channels - i can figure out the endings to most of those shows - and they are happy endings!
