Thread: Republicans Block Everything-Then Complain Nothing Is Getting Done!

1. The GOP made it all but impossible for President Obama to close Gitmo....Then they complain he didn't keep his promise to close it!
2. The GOP is blocking the Senate bill that would free up money to small businesses who hire new employees....Then they complain about unemployment!
3. Republicans are fighting like Hell to keep the (unpaid for) Bush Tax cuts for the rich in place......But then scream about the deficit!

Not only is this deceitful an un-American.....I think it's going to cost the GOP the chance of taking back Congress in November.

You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time.
Abraham Lincoln

Do we really want to let these scoundrels control Congress again??
Do you want this tanned slime-ball to be Speaker of the House?(would you buy a used-car from him?)


In point of fact....Despite the GOP's efforts to hurt their country.....Big things ARE getting done ....... from ending our role in the Iraq fiasco to the lowest middle class taxes in a half-century to ending the torture of U.S. prisoners ...we are finally moving again!

1. You GOP types made sure there was no place to put them.
2. GOP BS to hide your intention of blocking any improvement in the economy. (take off that damned American Flag lapel pin......That's for people that LOVE their country, not for people that LOVE their bankbooks!)

New GOP symbol (replacing the elephant)

repubers want one thing and one thing only - to gain back the House and maybe the senate. They do not care for this country one bit and they only nt the Obamster to fail and if the country fails with him they will be happy because they figure that it would be their chance to regain power. I ONCE SUPPORTED mCacin but I have even lost respect for him over the last few years. Look at how the Repubs are kissing the asses of the Tea Party slugs. tHE AWARE rEPUBS KNOW THAT THE tEA party types are for the most part a pack of ignorant fools but as the Commies once called their unaware supporters --the Tea Party bufoons are the "Usefull Idiots" for the Repub party.

I have an idea: let's spend another gazillion dollars on the stimulus. Maybe we can get unemployment up to 20%.

I'm sure you could link to the tons of complaint posts you wrote decrying GOP spending when they were in power, right? (otherwise....someone would think you are simply being partisan..... & really could give a crap about government spending)

Just like I'm sure you were full of praise for GOP spending when George Bush was president.

That makes no sense??? (Bush/GOP squandered our tax money....Obama is spending it to save our economy)

It is deceitful but it won't matter. I don't think the general population are thinking any deeper than the surface and what they see are the gov't has failed to create jobs. That there might be a deep reason for our problems and that the media are not exposing the falsities of the GOP they aren't giving much thought. It's all about knee-jerk and gut responses now. My needs aren't being met and rather than examine why they aren't being met and who might really be culpable I'll simply have a hissy fit about it and get my nanny fired. It's that level of thinking. These days.
