When Barack proposes a credible plan, we will stop "obstructing". The voice of the people is the House of Representatives. If is controlled by the GOP for a reason. The country does not trust this buffoon with no experience.

Psssst, the process of writting and getting a Budget Bill passed starts in the House, not the Whitehouse. You seem to think the process is supposed to work in reverse, hmmmmm, that might explain a few things about conservative thinking

You cannot create a budget bill when all Democrats want to do is spend, spend, and spend some more of OTHER people's money...

Memorizing facts is not part of education today.
People aren't retaining what they learned in school.

It's not a conservative vs liberal thing. It's an age thing.
Younger people don't know facts and take what they read in the MSM literally without further verification.

The Obama pom-pom squad forget all the 'hope' and faith they put in the man. They forget how they championed him because he said he would turn it all around, he would bring jobs, prosperity, be transparent, cut the deficit in half, create jobs and economic growth. Now the pom-pom squad's excuse for the exact opposite being the reality of Obama's policies, is to say well, it was starting to trend down during his campaign, and they never really thought Obama would be able to correct it anyway.

The Obama pom-pom squad promised us the moon, and when all we get it a steaming dog turd, they shrug, and go back to waving their pom-poms.

Of course the only spending Republicans want to cut is that which doesn't affect their agenda but that's OK, eh?

Pssst, the house has passed budgets, Harry Reid refuses to act of the Congressional budget, and every dem has voted down all Obama budgets. BTW, all of Obama's budgets were submitted late, if at all, and were soooo bad, they were an embarrassment to his own party.

interesting. when Democrats had control of the house, not one single budget bill was passed from 2006 until they lost control in 2010. you didnt complain.

now that republicans control 1/3 of the process, you need a budget bill passed? and its the fault of the 1/3rd

really?


more importantly, do you really thing people are going to believe you when you say it?

Not even close.. If it was we wouldnt be able to run $1t deficits, pass Obamacare, or the $900B stimulus bill which ultimately cost $3.2T..

But you just run around whining, because thats what you do well

If you know what in the hell the GOP agenda is, could you tell me? Because those clowns do not seem to have a clue if they are democrats one minute, or republicans the next. Except for wanting to repeal the disastrous ObamaCare, the GOP looks to be nothing more then moderate democrats.
