"Hoopla . . ."

The new Congress has been sworn in and all kinds of hoopla is boiling up. The Dems are saying the Reps have to come over and agree with them. I don't think so, that is patent BS. If the Reps have a majority in the house and vote together there is nothing the Dems can do about it. And they know it.

So they are all out trying to make it look like they still have the power, they don't.

I think some reasonableness shall return, at least for a while. I think the Reps will relish cutting the budget everywhere they can but mostly in Obamacare. Yes, some of it is destine to remain but the most part is going to go down the drain of no funds to execute.

Saw where another Federal Judge in Virginia this time strike down part of the Obamacare mandating the purchase of insurance. That is the second Federal Judge to do so, the first was in Florida. That may speak doom for the entire bill as the Dems neglected to add a clause that if part of the bill is unconstitutional the rest can go on. Since they left that out, it the Supreme Court agrees with the original finding, Obamacare is toast.

Yep, lots of hoopla gonna is go on. And that is probably a good thing. Checks and balances in play again, the super majority is gone. And the Dems are barely holding on in the Senate.
