I SECOND THAT NOTION!!! Please, oh pretty, pretty please, stop talking about 2016. CBS made me flinch when they started their 2016 “coverage” three days after the election. If this goes on I’m sure I’ll develop a nervous tic or something…

Nothing new about it. Any fad is followed till it is exhausted. The only positive thing is that it will probably join the pet rock in the yesterday file by the time June gets here.

Will someone tell exactly what of lasting value the Dem Libs won?…….Obama lies to everyone, even his supporters.

This reminds me of the warden who had to execute two prisoners.
The warden granted each prisoner a last request.
The first prisoner said “I’d like to hear Achey Breaky Heart one more time.”
The second prisoner said “Kill me first.”

Obamacare will not be repealed.
-
We will get the troops out of Afghanistan.
-
There will be no Federal anti-abortion legislation.

Job growth and economic growth will continue, however slowly.
-
Elizabeth Warren will be in the Senate, hopefully on the banking committee, and Scott Brown will not.
-
Bush tax cuts for the wealthy will expire.
-
The budget deficit will continue to be reduced.
-
Grownups will be in charge of foreign policy, not neo-cons.
-
There will be no appointments to the Supreme Court like Scalia, Alito, and Thomas.
-
Willard the ChickenHawk will no longer be part of the political landscape. Unfortunately, his secret plans to fix the economy and the tax rates will never be revealed.
-
And, most of all, we will continue to benefit from deeply analytical and knowledgeable posts like the one you just made.

The guy in the cartoon should not worry. With what Obama has done to Medicare, he’ll be dead long before the next election! Doctors & hospitals will refuse to take Medicare patients because they will be working for next to nothing. Of course, perhaps Obama plans to put the military in the hospitals & doctor’s offices and force them to work at gunpoint. I would not doubt it.
