Sure would be nice if they did this.

Its a republican LIE that Obamacare is a jobs killer. That has been a proven false by the CBO...not the opposite. Americans have been losing their jobs well before Obama took office or created a real good health care system....that still needs more improvements like public options to be perfect!

There's no need at this point to redo the stimulus just so a failing president with nothing to lose except our money can double-down on a possible up tick in the economy for which he can claim credit.

No they just filibustered everything that was tried.

I don't recall that big news from the CBO, only their declaration that it would cost much more than revealed with the phoney accounting.

Vote for Obama, if you want more of the same, most people i know who voted for him the first time around, will not.

Infact they say to me i liked him when i voted for him, but smart people make mistakes, won't the second time around.

Well....to your last line "smart people make mistakes, won't the second time around".......what about Geo Bush?

Harry was a coward for not allowing votes on the 2 plans passed by the House when the debt ceiling debate was going on

Obamacare has brought a lot of uncertainty which is not good when we need a healthy economic environment.

Proof that your hero is not just part of the things you brought up, but he's waist deep in it! And in over his head regarding economics.

His narcissism keeps him from getting this economy back on track.
