It's hard to fathom, even in the most deluded conservative fantasy, that Mitt Romney would make a good leader of the free world.
Not to mention that other then Swiss bank accounts he has no foriegn policy experience.

So if the Rep. elected officials aren't cooperating, that's a problem. Why isn't the PResident and the Dems. cooperating with the Reps. in thier attempts to solve our problems??

The right would not take a 10-1 deal. Who isn't cooperating?

Gimmicks and giveaways. Cut regulations, givaways to big oil and cut taxes. It's always the same BS. Why could they not do a 10-1 deal?

Probably because the republicans won't cooperate unless they can give tax cuts to the rich.

And here's what wrong with you two...

Instead of learning about the bills, you just make up answers for yourselves...Whether it's to convince yourself or shield the Chosen One or whatever...

See the last bill on the list of Republican-backed House bills that are being blocked by the Senate?...

"3% Withholding Tax Repeal" (H.R.674)

Here's the roll call on that bill....



FOUR HUNDRED AND FIVE TO FRIGGIN' SIXTEEN!!!!...

Now you two have two choices...

1) Ask "Then why is this being held up by the Democrat senate????"

2) Don't bother asking and just blame Republicans anyway because it helps the false narrative...

I'm saddened the answer is the latter...

i heard a good idea today. Obama should endorse Simpson/Bowles. That would send the right scrambling for the exits.
