Of course, forward thinkers like John Boehner are back at it already. He wrote an opinion piece for the Washington Post, with the conflicting assertions that he would work together with the other side of the aisle while fighting the leftist agenda to help the country get out of the economic crisis that the Republicans have to take just a little bit of blame for creating.
I guess we can thank Boehner for at least declaring his intentions to be an obsturctionist, pain in the arse.
I think we can guarantee that congress will pass Obama's initial economic package without much resistance other than the ususal CYA saber rattling. Grudgingly, they will also accept the war in Iraq as a lost cause and opt for whatever quiet exit strategy comes around, as long as they don't have to do it under W's watch. What will be interesting is the hearings after Obama's first selection for the supreme court. The same people that jumped all over Joe Biden for making Alito's wife cry are going to pummel the nominee.
Anyway, enjoy the relative lack of noise now, because it is going to return to the same old shyte soon enough.
I started this post, mostly to post a fly, and somehow went off on a political rant. I guess that will happen.
Good news: the doc says the shoulder, other than the fractured humerus is stable and likely will not require surgery.

Tight lines,
