As republicans come to power in Washington, there is infighting...
Link to NYT story: http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/12/15/as-republicans-power-grows-so-do-rifts-in-party/?partner=rss&emc=rss&src=ig


GOPers are split on how to act now that they will be in power in the House - the baggers are warned they will have to be "adults" and that the "Federal Government has actual obligations" that must be fulfilled!

I guess they can't destroy it all, at least not imediately, and they might actually have to think about others than themselves!!!

1. Best part
"For much of the past two years, the story line in Washington has been about the struggle among Mr. Obama and his fellow Democrats in the face of unified Republican opposition.

Now that′s changing."

Thanks for posting.

2. Yeah, as much as I hate to see those pricks in power, it will be amusing
to see them squabbling with each other...it might even make the Democrats look better!

3. I am seeing it personally in my area between the moderate r's and the religious right
I actually feel sorry for the moderates...they "aren't what God wants running the country"

5. Maybe we should concede a few more things to encourage them to come together.
And then congratulate them on how well they look out for the American people.
