Light the fireworks!
As of Wednesday, the brand-spanking new Congress is back in action. This time with more Republicans!
These new conservatives are promising lots of fireworks in Washington in the months ahead.
Number one target in their sights: the health care reform passed in early 2010. These new Republicans are determined to get rid of “Obamacare”… a campaign promise which catapulted many of them to victory.
Some congressional newcomers have gone as far as turning down their own government-funded health insurance.
Though the GOP claims to have a mandate from the American people to reverse President Obama’s health care plan, the Republicans are in a tight spot.
They only control the House of Representatives… leaving the Democrats in control of the Senate (and let’s not forget the White House).
Yet, against all odds Republican leadership is fighting on…or just wasting time? What do you think?
