For the past several years, the Pubs have blocked practically everything the president has tried to do.
My tiny little violin isn't playing sympathetic tunes for the GOP. All of these fiscal "crises" have been manufactured by the Pubs specifically to make economic recovery less effective in hopes that it would cast Obama in an unfavorable light. After decades of voting Republican, I now recognize the hazard they and their agenda pose to our nation and I fully support the president's actions.
"All these fiscal crises"? You mean like the ones Obama flat stated were going to happen and now that the White House is backing off of?

What are you talking about? Most of these manufactured crisis were initiated when the democrats controlled both houses of congress, with Obama signing them into law. The sequester alone, was a plan conceived by, and forced upon everyone by Obama and his administration. The budget battle coming up the end of this month is because of Obama and the democrats too.

All this silly sturm und drang over "budgets" is just silly political theater for folks who don't grasp that the budget is a nonbinding wish list.
Spending is accomplished through appropriations bills in congress.
He a community organizer, nothing more. This is all he has ever known. He has never had to lead a group of people to do something positive. Community organizers twist arms to try and get what they want. They use threats. It works in Chicago but as he is finding out, not so well in other places.
I dunno. Half the brain dead country thinks ghetto pimp thugs are K.O.O.L. And they vote.

So the answer is no the dems never passed a budget and then whine about the house that did.
Congress passing a budget is the number one job of congress

No, it isn't. Trying to work with a group is generally considered to be trying to work with people, at least by people who aren't rabid partisans.

Obama has made it clear that he will only support ideas that come from him, regardless of their worth.
More absolute nonsense. One need only look at what actually did get done in his first term to realize this statement is complete BS, no matter how many times right wing talking heads and extremists within the GOP repeat it.

Those that make statements such as the one quoted have truly bought into the lying BS presented by Obama and his crew.
And people who make statements like the one you made have clearly bought into the lying BS presented by McConnell, Boehner, Cantor, and the band of lying media mouthpieces for the Republican party.
