I have a different take on this one. I want no excuses from the left when the hammer comes down. None. A fillibuster proof ,
lock on power in the legislative branch is fine by me. We don't want the obstructionist label\excuse at all. Let them drive. We just need to focus on the fundementals.
1. Weed out the irresponsible Republicans from the party(those who spend too much)
2. Ensure a consistant, unified minority vote (in opposition when it makes sense. Which means freqently with this administration)
3. Oppose every bill that expands the governments role and establishes reoccuring deficit spending.
They'll be fodder for the political meat grinder later. Trust me.
My 2 cents
Men should be either treated generously or destroyed, because they take revenge for slight injuries - for heavy ones they cannot.

On the plains of hesitation bleach the bones of countless millions who, at the dawn of decision, sat down to wait, and waiting died.
