all of a sudden?

Frankly, the more hell we can raise and the less we keep this Congress from doing the better off we ALL will be.

I don't understand why you think we should let this congress "get down to business" so it looks like it takes a sweep election of Republicans to get anything done.

I'm all set for the next 2 years of absolute hell. We have nothing to lose. I'd like to see some DEMs start raising hell for a change.
