I am so sick of the press playing up this president because he is black and a democrat. It seems that if someone is a Republican they are dirt and if they are a democrat that are the answer and miracle to all that ails this country. If president Bush was still pres. he would have been run out of office for some of the things Obama has done. I think the democrats are a bunch of hypocrites. I think the final part of their party is correct. They are a bunch of selfish RATS!! Oh, and I am an independent. Better watch out we are the ones the make the difference because we actually vote for whom we think is the best candidate not like many in the entertainment industry who are so liberal it make people want to throw up. Enough now lets really get back to our founding fathers good principles.

When has POTUS ever tried working with Republicans? He is an ideologue. Just b/c he says he wants to work with R doesn’t mean he will (he never has in his actions (just words)). He only knows how to govern from the extreme left. This is the only place he still has any friends. All of the moderates and right have been told they are not needed by POTUS. When POTUS asks the Republicans to work with him, this is code for join the Democrat party and vote with us and NOT we will accept your ideas. This is more blame Bush. Last time I checked POTUS still has a majority in the House & Senate. Hey, what do you need Republicans for? To blame them when the idea crashes.

Let me try to make this a simple as possible for you, dear. It’s called the “filibuster”. That requires 60 votes to “end debate”. In order to do the people’s work, the Senate needs an up or down vote. The GOP has blocked every single vote this year, forcing “cloture” votes of 60 required to do any business. They are totally shameless, as are you for writing the quote above.

Plus, Sen. Shelby from Deep Dixieland has put holds on not one, not two, not three, but ALL SEVENTY of Obama’s nominees to fill crucial offices in the government. The price to remove the holds? A huge chunk of pork for his state.

Do you understand now?

Some of us still remember POTUS tellng the Republicans early on that HE was the one who was voted POTUS. Translated; HE is the onw who makes policy, and we also remember what those policies are going to cost the US tax payer. Obstuctionist? yeah, somebody has to try to stop this runaway train called change. It is costing us tax payers TOO much money!

The republicans want to destroy this country.

Right when country needs congress to pull together, the GOP sent out memos
instructing their members to “delay and obstruct” any bill.

Leaders were pleading to GOP senators to “use any parlimentary tactic possible” to stall government.

The gop embraced lobbyiest with open arms, happily took their money

the gop senators put blanket holds on 70 appointees just for million dollar kick-backs to their home state

the GOP voted against the largest tax cut ever for the middle class

the GOP took the side of the terrorists after the christmas day almost attack

The POTUS does not have a majority in the Senate that will vote for a health care package which includes a public option. The POTUS worked with republicans for the stimulus bill which included $250 billion in tax breaks. You say that the POTUS will not accept the republican’s ideas. Are you saying that the tax breaks in the stimulus were from the democrats? So they aren’t the tax and spend democrats then? The dirt comes when a republican says that the health care bill contains death panels. It never did. I read it and you should too. That way you know what is true and what is not. More dirt comes with the republicans say that all of the $780 billion of the stimulus was spent. It was not. About $125 billion was spent in the first year. The $250 billion in tax breaks are to be spread over 10 years as well as the remaining $400 billion. You can easily look that up. With last year’s $3.5 trillion budget, which means 3.5% of the budget went to stimulus projects. Of those projects, 40% were introduced by republicans. There’s the proof of working with the republicans.
As for the blame, you can’t blame obama for the economy tanking in 2008 and even the first few months in 2009. That rests squarely on the bush administration and his policies. 2006 and 2007 were boon years and bush can be given the credit for that but starting Jan. 2008, the economy took a nose dive and obama was a senator then who as most conservatives pointed out didn’t show for most of his votes so he can’t be blamed. Yet… this is what was tried by the conservatives last year. That is dirt.
As for returning to our founding fathers, look up the Constitution article I section 8 Powers of Congress. The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;
“Lay and collect taxes”… “provide for the common Defence and general welfare”. Sounds like tax and spend doesn’t it? Who better to do that than the tax and spend democrats.
