You bet they'll blame Obama. However, I think the deceit and scorched earth will only work with the true believers. The rest of us know that not only has the GOP done nothing, they are ensuring that nothing gets done.

I think the TOTUS (teleprompter of the united states) even laughed when he said the "private sector is doing fine"!

You mean the same "jobs" bill as his stimulus? Why should anyone want a repeat of that failure?

Experts? You mean obama-supporting economists.

I think you have that backwards. Republicans have passed 30+ jobs bills that are languishing in the democrat-controlled Senate.

What about the democrat Senate, that hasn't passed a budget in over 3 years?

What about the first two years of unfettered control by democrats/obama, where they passed everything they wanted to pass...to the detriment of this country?

^^^ Tell the auto works that it the stimulus was a big time fail and see what they do to you it will not be pretty just more BS from Faux Szoone & Rush

Republicans jobs bill does not put anybody back to work all it does is cut taxes for the super rich & cut a lot of regulations much need regulations that would not have caused this mess in the first places

ummm hello even if you tax everyone who makes over $200k a year at 100%....meaning they have no money at all....there is not enough money to pay for the deficit. taxing the super rich or even the semi rich isn't going to fix our over spending entitlement society. we're going to be greece before we know it.....and the main stream media isn't going to report on it then either.

Kennedy was the 60th vote. The two independents were 59 and 58.
Um, Democrats were passing bills by simple majority, meaning only 50.

Then how did they get the healthcare bill, the stimulus, the omnibus spending bills, and more?

you know all you do is credit Obama with all of the bills that are passed on 1 posting, thereby saving the economy, and then on the next say there was none passed because of filibusters.. make up your mind
