C'mon, grow up!
Tripe? Come on, those were funny - and spot on. Or do you think the private sector is doing just fine?
Ok, so to answer your question I'd just as soon Congress and the White House both take a few years off. But don't think we've forgotten that a few years back the congressional Democrats "top priority" was obstruction. In fact on nearly every GOP initiative since 2010 the Democrats have declared them DOA. Oh, and the Senate still has not produced a budget for 1142 days. So if you want to discuss obstruction I'm up for it.
Ex it's not that the Republicans won't work with Obama. They have passed budgets ;the Dems have not even bothered seriously trying to pass the President's budget. So if there is a noncooperative group in the government ;it's the President's own party. You really want to talk about governing ? The President did not even govern when he had the majority in both houses . The plans that were passed came from the mosh pit of Democrat constituencies forged by Reid and Pelosi while the President honed his golf game and played celebrity President.
Hello again, Steve:
Obama said that the "private sector is doing fine," although the political snafu was not too far from the truth.
The fact is corporate America is doing fine. Corporate America is making record profits while sitting on nearly $2 trillion, and the income of the wealthiest Americans is soaring. So, capital in the private sector is doing fine. Workers, not so much. But, I'm glad to hear that you care about the workers.

What about ALL the legislation passed by the House that Prince Harry wouldn't even let hit the floor in the Senate the last 3.5 Years?
After all.. there is this thing called co-equal branches of government... Obama isn't a King... or a god. And they aren't below him... or his underlings.
We're just taking Bill Clinton's advice from 2 years ago on what our priority should be.
Seems like sound advice to me.Quote:
"The Democrats are saying something like this: 'We found a big hole that we did not dig. We didn't get it filled in 21 months, but at least we quit digging,'" Clinton said at the time. "'Give us two more years. If it doesn't work, vote us out.'"
This Trumanesque blame it on the do nothing Congress and Roosevelt like blame it on the rich only worked when the Dems had complete control of the message.
There are 2 ways he could've handled an opposition Congress .Show strong leadership and get Congress to act like Reagan did ,or triangulate like Clintoon did when he announced the era of big government was over . This guy expects Congress to roll over and play dead ;and then blames them for his failure to make them do so.
Here you go all you whiners about 'do-nothing' Republicans. Here's John Boehner today, standing in front of jobs bills the House has passed that the Democrat controlled Senate that hasn't offered a budget in over 3 years has refused to consider:
If you look closely you can see the tears in his eyes .
LOL, I wouldn't doubt it.
But the real problem isn't Congress . It's the American consumer . Face it ,we aren't buying enough thingamajigs .
I don't have money to buy thigamagigs.
I've been waiting for the price of thingamajigs to come down.
"under my plan ,the cost of thingamajigs will necessarily skyrocket "
Well, the same old clichés aren't going to fix anything.
