Until we can call him what he is - the enemy - we cannot defeat him.  This is NOT how you treat your enemy!

Is that not nice of me? 

Xin Loi.

The NEW GOP Majority - declaring itself an enemy to half the voters.  That has a nice ring to it if you believe America is longing for a new civil war.

Is that really the only way to defeat Obama?  I'm not so sure.

I agree completely.  It would provide great optics for the networks to portray the Republicans as something they're not.

Would like to see a parliamentary atmosphere however, like the British.

That's because to approximately half of "the voters", a "GOP majority" IS "the enemy".

And they're going to remain the enemy regardless of what the GOP does in trying to "be nice".

So let them stand up and ACT LIKE they are opposing "an enemy" -- the enemy of the left and all that it represents!
