is going to require giving Republicans some of what they want. Screw the people who complain about that over the next two years. Enough. They've had three Congressional elections to get off their asses but all they do is threaten to stay home or to keep other people home (due to their lack of "inspiration" which they claim is all that gets out the vote).

President Obama will make them give him something he wants too. He always does, though they hold the upper hand, since they don't give a shit about the people or the economy.

And they'll leave pretty much every office unfilled unless they get someone they want, which will of course be "corporatists." And the Treasury Department having people with actual banking experience. Oh the horrors! :sacasm:
