What would happen if Republicans had a SUPER-MAJORITY??!!

BlueRepublican 2012/06/16 17:04:26
Constitutional checks and balances. But what happens when one group has complete control of the governing process?

We briefly saw what a Democratically-controlled Super-Majority looked like.
We saw the legislation that was passed. We saw the hyper-partisanship and breakdown of communication with the opposition. Now we see the results of these actions.

Which begs the question: What would happen if Republicans had a SUPER-MAJORITY??!! That's right. A GOP controlled House, Senate and Republican President.

What do you think would happen? What kind of legislation would pass? Would the opposition have a chance? Where does that leave 3rd parties like the Libertarians? What direction would the country go in? What about the people?

I wanna know what you think. Leave me a comment, share with everyone you know, and don't forget to RAVE!!!!!!

    I am a conservative. I think they would act like the same ass they did in the Bush administration. Not very conservative.

    It would have to be a super-majority without counting any RINOs to make it accomplish anything meaningful.

    With any luck what-so-ever, fiscal responsibility would take hold. But then, we have not had that, fiscal responsibility, for the last 100 years or so.

    I wish that were true, but you know how the RINOs work. More corporate welfare, more monopolizing of business (airlines, oil, food) and a smaller middle class.

    I would buy into that arguement if it were only the, quote, RINO's, unquote, but it is every administration, every freckin' one, since at least Roosevelt, Teddy that is, that has done anything except give away the store. A pox on every one of them, and the people that keep electing our governing bodies.

    And your point is?????? ... government is not intended to be a "for profit" undertaking ... but your/our elected representatives have gotten us to this point with their "bringing home the bacon" mentality ... one philosophy in control is NEVER a good idea nor solution.

    We would have an America that most citizens would be proud of. The rest of you Commies can move to Chavezville, TEA Party Patriots and Conservatives will take back the country in a few months. Maobama has turned more Democrats into Republicans than Carter and we thank you for that.

    The Democrats never had a supermajority. That's why the Republicans decided to abandon democracy in order to prevent anything that might actually benefit the American people. If the Republicans no longer had the Constitution or the rule of law to hold them back, you and I would both be dead by now. And those few who were left would be speaking Chinese.

    Yeah, Right! How did we get 0bamacare shoved on us! Even some of the democrats were dragging their feet on that one! Remember 2007 to 2011 Nancy Pelousi and Dingy Reid, democrat leaders in the house and senate! Try agian, PP!

    The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act had to be passed by reconciliation due to Republican filibusters, in case you've forgotten. I know you must be tremendously disappointed that all those old people aren't dead yet, but some day you will look back on that bill and thank God that it's there for you when you need it.

    The Dems had a supermajority capable of defeating a fillibuter for only six months of Obama's first term . . . From the time Al Frankin was allowed to take his Senate seat until Ted Kennedy died was six months, and that was when the Patient Protection and Affordable Health Care Act was passed.

    It would be the destructive end of what millions of Americans fought and died for... Because today's Republican only see what conservative ideology is. They have no tolerance for anything or anyone outside conservative ideology.

    Now how does that honor all who fought and die for this nation that weren't conservative. It's like conservative taking a big dump on all non-conservative heroes that fought and die side by side with fallen conservative heroes.

    First, um who's liberal? Can't one be against conservative and liberal ideology as well?

    You don't think conservatives have their own brand of Fascism or socialism or whatever? You're only fooling yourself.

    Liberalism and Fascism are diametric opposites. Mitt Romney, for example, is a fascist. He wants to deprive anyone who actually works for a living of any opportunity to achieve anything in life and take everything this nation has and give it to a few thousand oligarchs as sociopathic as he is.

    And the Constitution is the embodiment of liberalism. Why do you think conservatives work so hard to destroy it? It has things in it like "equal protection of the laws" and "due process", and it even lets black people vote!!

    While you liberals want to do the social engineering, paying women to have babies/with the money to support them and people too lazy to work, the conservatives are working to take care of their own and paying taxes to that fund the entitlement class!
