article "Strong-Armed" suggests, if not in so many words, that infighting and gridlock among Republicans in the various branches of government are a possibility. I don't think that would be W's fault and, if you let that happen, you will have thrown away what this great opportunity. Don't be turf-wise and history-foolish. Republicans actual and potential are watching you. br> -- Benjamin Udell /p>

For crying out loud. Isn't this the same House that did nothing but complain about Trent Lott slowing down their bills when he was Majority Leader previously? The same Senate that Lott "shared power" with the Democrats in 2000 and again halted all bills coming from the House? The same Senate that became the pawn of the radical left when Jim Jeffords (Moron-VT) "switched" and basically declared anything Messrs. Hastert and DeLay passed as DOA?

p>So now they are complaining about the executive branch meddling in their workings? This is funny coming from a legislative branch that has, for decades, watered down or taken away powers from the executive branch. Speaker Hastert is just worried about his pork spending and DeLay should be ecstatic that they'll finally have a Senate that might actually move forward on House initiatives.... br> -- Greg Barnard br> Franklin, TN /p> p> JOIE DE VIVRE GOES MISSING br> Re: R.
