What about adding more government jobs (unneeded, as a matter of fact)?? Oh, I'm sure you wouldn't complain when no real jobs were created in the past couple of years, but plenty of government jobs were. The money is going into the wrong things.

no it doesnt, it just transfers the cost from the private companies, to the government.

Tax cuts for everybody under $250,000... Unless the Republicans fillibuster...
filibuster what? there has never been a bill put up for consideration.

Quote:
Obama announced $50 BILLION in infrastructure yesterday... Bush did no such thing except war spending...
instead of putting up another spending bill, why not take some of the steal from us funds and use those to spend on infrastructure? that would save money.

how about instead of every liberal program to pay off obama supporters, and stupid crap like turtle tunnels, and frisbee golf courses and dog parks, lets do something really radical like improve roads and bridges, and the electrical grid.

Yeah... like the bloated Republican Governor of New Jersey turned down $3 BILLION funding for a desperately needed tunnel project into NYC... Way to go Christie...

The RepubliCAN'Ts have only cared for their wealthy/Big Business supporters; this has been fairly common knowledge for a long time now....

and the democrat party does not really care about the poor or the middle class either, guess we are all screwed.


that is why I like the Libertarian and Constitution parties, they dont care if you are poor, rich or middle class, they just care if you support the Constitution as written.

This is verifiable proof that the Republican Party is blocking infrastructure spending in order to undermine the Obama administration...

I get it, the Republican Party doesn't care about me, but then again I never expected them to. Does the Democrat Party care about me, yeah right, about as much as the Republicans. In the meantime, show me three examples of how the Democrat Party cares for "me".

Parties care on one day in November, beyond that nothing exist.

I would ask does the Republican/Democrat Party care about what is doing best for the people of the United States of America as a whole, since after all, its not just about me.
