What a hoot. Everytime I see this silly accusation pop up, I always ask the same question. What game changing legislation have the Republicans blocked? Interestingly enough, I never get a response.
Oh... it's not just the legislation they've blocked. It really starts with the decision to play chicken with default during the debt limit debate... resulting in the drop in our credit rating.
The public doesn't agree. The public appears to be galvanizing behind the sentiment that the Republican Tea Party experiment is a failure...
A majority of Repubs in the House for 10 months and already deemed a failure ? I'd say they did good because runaway spending was stopped dead in its tracks.

Clearly the public doesn't share your sentiment. Not hard to imagine, most folks have no idea how the Modern Monetary System works and attribute the wrong ideas to Government spending and its effects.
The Republican Tea Party seems to be having a tough time convincing the voters they're interested in improving the Economy.
What a shock, not! They've almost shut down the govt, what, twice now in the last few months? What a bunch of jerks, in debt to a guy named Grover Norquist who is not an elected official.
The article cited three polls, not one. All a person has to do is click on the link and read the title of the article (Three’s A Trend: Polls Show Voters Believe GOP Intentionally Stalling Economic Recovery), if they don't have time to read the actual article, or choose not to educate themselves.
Interesting. An opinion piece by Ron Paul, and an article praising Ron Paul's article, versus three different polls of American citizens expressing their views. I'll go with my fellow citizens on this one, especially since the idea of the Republicans deliberately blocking economic recovery is consistent with the stated goal of the GOP's top ranking U.S. Senator
Go back 5 years and take a poll about housing values, jobs, etc and I'm willing to bet things were looking good.
How accurate are polls again and why would we rely upon a poll to discuss economic situations rather than facts?

And? Are you telling me you support failure and believe it should repeated?
Its that or you can list bills Obama has written blocked by the GOP which would change the economy. I somehow doubt this because it doesnt exist.
Try beginning with the game changing legislation the Republican Tea Party has proposed and the public is behind...
I dont recall voting for the Tea Party. Can you discuss the topic and support the thread you started by listing some bills awaiting passage in the House that would change the economy, or do you have to distract from your own failed thread again?
