that he is serving with a do nothing Congress? I keep thinking back to last spring when the House passed a budget bill and the Senate failed to deal with it. Then the House passed Cut, Cap and Budget and Dirty Harry declared it dead on arrival and tabled it while Obama threatened to veto it if it got to him. Yep, this is a do nothing Congress but half of it tried to get a budget which we haven't had one of in over two years and the other half didn't do anything.

I say that Obama stuck his foot in his mouth the other day when he said he couldn't get anything done because of a do nothing Congress. Hell, he won't let them do anything and since half of it is controlled by Reid of course they get very little done.

His mistake was made when he said " I Barack Hussein Mugabe, do solemnly swear to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States".

Although he would like to, he can't blame Bush forever. Time to move on and blame someone/something else. So he blames Congress, Republicans, Tea Party, the earthquake in Japan, the weather, etc.

He sure is running out of people to blame and I think that even Democrats in Congress are tiring of his words.

I wonder if he will clean house and start out with some new speech writers soon. They have been failing him for some time.

Not at all, first the House Republicans set up a schedule where they work two weeks on and one week off.

Second, the Republican ran in the 2010 mid-terms that they were the party that could put the American economy back on track. What we got was attacks on Planned Parenthood, protest against same sex marriage, and holding the country "hostage" to force with a half *ss deficit reduction bill as part of raising the debt ceiling.

Third on a comparitive basis the Republican dominated House has passed very little legislation in comparison to previous congresses.

Forty percent of Americans would believe him if he blamed UFOs. Well, 37% would anyway.
