I agree, I don't think we should be reactionary to the R's (we have been doing that for 6 years), I think we should play hardball with them for our programs. E.g. threats-lol! Everyone knows we are going to regain the senate in 2016. We need to remind the pubs of that constantly and let them know if they fxxk with us we will rain the dogs of hell down on them in 2016. One of the tricks in politics is when you first get in make an example of someone, so they can see you are serious. When Reagan got in he made an example of the Air Traffic controllers, He crushed them. We have been playing defense for the last six years and that was the wrong tactic, especially when we had such a powerful army in 08. We need to go on the offense now in every way we can and get some respect from them. And we need to quit reacting to their yelling and screaming. The more they yell and scream the more we should put it to them. IMO.
