I'm sick of him too, but worried about what Congressional Democrats might do.

I'm not worried they'll pass that massive health care bill. They won't. Brown killed it. I'm not worried they're going to pass cap and trade. They won't. I'm not worried they're going to pass that atrocity of a union bill. They won't.
However, there are a lot of things that Congress can do, and might do, that will help to continue ruining our economy. Things that come to mind are a second "stimulus bill" (quotes intentional as the first so-called bill appears to have done nothing except waste taxpayer dollars on pork projects), increased government regulation in banking (the only thing they need to do is pass a law that prohibits the Federal government from bailing out any bank where compensation to employees and/or shareholders exceeds a percentage of adjusted gross earnings), increased government regulation of the financial sector generally, and stupid projects like Obama's new "high speed rail" idea.

Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

Who watched President Carter's State of the Union address last night? If so, what did you think?

He's as bad as listening to Bush, but for different reasons.

LOL! I would like to see a bill proposing a 100-ft. tall statue of Dracula next to the IRS.

I don't regret voting Obama. McCain would have alienated the US even more.

I tend to agree. I prefer a split as do many Americans I think which is why I keep warning everyone

Nope. I don't regret it at all even though I have no plans to vote for him again.

I couldn't watch either, despite the fact speeches seem to be all Obama does well.

I think the problem is that Obama doesn't really have a lot of his own plans.
