First order of business?

Question

Now that the Democrats have taken the house and it looks like they will take the Senate, what do you think that their first order of business will be when they take oath in January? How excited are you about the change of power?

With the resignation of Rumsfeld yesterday, do you think that the Bush cabinet is threatened by the power that the Democrats hold now? Who do you think is next? Do you think that the new house and senate will hold investigations into the potential scandals that the administration has dodged for the past six years? How important do you think that will be?

Answer 1

I am wicked pumped about the change. I think they will do a few things...First, work on getting our troops home. Second, raise the minimum wage. And third, work on better health care plan. But the number one goal has to be resolving this mess in the Middle East.

Answer 2

I think their first order of business is going to be implementing the recommendations of the 9/11 Commission. Second, I think they are going to try to raise the minimum wage to $7.00/hour.

I am elated about last night's turnout. I hope we do not have to wait months until the Senate results are official.

Answer 3

I think the war is the biggest issue that needs a resolution. And now that the power in the government has shifted, there will be results; for good or bad. I just hope it changes. America has become stagnent.

Answer 4

#1 We need to back up our troops and rally the other countries for support as these terrorists are a world-wide threat and are not going to go away. They are on a mission to destroy US & Israel and all other non-Islams and they are propulgating, affluent and led by their 'god/man''s credo
#2 Stop stalling and enforce a secure border like other countries, including Mexico they will throw someone in jail for illegal entry. How ignorant to leave our border open for anyone to detract from esp terrorists who are in over 40 states already. This could lead to our ruin, why isn't it being fixed NOW!
