Some like slavery & some can't live without being a slave.
My 401K is doing quite well under gridlock.

Well of course, let's be honest.... we know the Republicans have been foaming- at- the- mouth- crazy because........ a "black" man turned red states blue!

They have hated his guts since day 1 because the landslide victory was by a "black" man,and his color is the ONLY FREAKIN REASON!!!!!!

The GOP makes me sick because all they do is spew hate and they never,never,never have a credible plan of their own!

However, I also know that politics is a total FARCE a Diversion to keep the SHEEPLE all stirred up and in an US vs THEM tizzy, so you won't catch me voting for either party!

I agree about the gridlock being lame, but I will give the new congress the benefit of the doubt.

McConnell sure seems to represent everything the OP hates (and I hate), but it failed. Obama was reelected, and did not roll over. More importantly, it showed they care more about screwing the other guy than serving the country in a time of crisis. I will say, for those incumbents (McConnell) who tried to sabotage Obama as he tried to steer the country out of the Great Recession, I have complete and utter contempt. It was a disgrace of the first order.

But now, they need to think about getting reelected themselves, and we are watching. I hope they try something new, like doing their jobs. And if they do, I will acknowledge it.

Voters Will Turn on the GOP for Washington Gridlock - US News

The racist "Party With No PLAN" and their usual MO just assures their loss in 2016!
I see NO "facts" just another very biased opinion article followed by even more juvenile name calling.

Nothing else to see here, Move on. Don't feed the troll!

Ok..where are YOUR facts that they have a plan other than shoving Keystone and protecting the NSA spying on Americans? Show us a plan they have that will help average everyday working Americans...any thing will do,just show it in a valid link.

Exactly! Anyone want to wager the Republicans will shut down the government again?

Actually, it seems like the hatred you are spewing might be causing that nausea.

You sure seem to have no problem "labeling" people in your whiny rant to start the thread.
