That's what you would put at the top of your list? What about reversing the Constitutional damage caused over the last 6 years? Bolstering our resolve on torture, wire tapping the populace, detaining 'illegal combatants', and reforming the Patriot Act to make some sense would be at the top of my list.
What do you expect to see here? I think things will be more reserved, and I'm very happy about that, but the President will veto anything substantial.
[ That's not always a bad thing. When you have a majority in congress but not the president, you send him bills that have popular support that he can't sign without looking like a traitor.
You can't overdo it or pretty soon you lose support for wasting time and getting nothing accomplished, but then, having a perfect obstructionist scapegoat helps a lot.
I fully expect the congress to start sending an awful lot of stuff across Bush's desk.
And no, i don't think a notice of impeachment will be one of them. In truth, I hope they don't get bogged down in investigations. There are some worth conducting, but it can't be *the thing* that they do or all the support will melt away in a heartbeat. -k]
