What democratic leader made it their #1 goal to sabatoge a sitting President? Not the deficit, not jobs, not entitlement reform making the president a 1 termer. McConnell has wasted 4 years of tax payer dollars with his shenanigans.

P.S. For future reference, any comparisons of Obama to Hitler will be ignored.

Conservatives blabber on and on about Pelosi and Reid when this quack loser McConnell is running around making a fool of himself, his party and the country.

Then...


Mitch McConnell: Top Priority, Make Obama a One Term President - YouTube

Now...

“The American people did two things: they gave President Obama a second chance to fix the problems that even he admits he failed to solve during his first four years in office, and they preserved Republican control of the House of Representatives,” McConnell said in a statement. “The voters have not endorsed the failures or excesses of the President’s first term, they have simply given him more time to finish the job they asked him to do together with a Congress that restored balance to Washington after two years of one-party control.”

This delusional fool needs to go in 14'.
I bet you beleive that Pelosi and reid where neutral towards bush alos. I thin the ebst i s ever saw was Teedy Keeenedy suddenly introducing his own medicare drug plan because basically he wanted to stop bush passig his plan. Even othert democrats rejected that one because of suport form other democratic interest groups. Just as we now see Obam insisting that the bush tax cuts for under 200+ not be elmianted when he and other previous said the cuts were only for the rich and shpould all be allowed to expire.

Was their stated #1 goal to make him a 1 term president?

Obama has ALWAYS wanted to continue the tax cuts for those making less than 250k. Please, fight your way out of the bubble.

You talking about the majority that has kept the House Republican ? I agree the majority has spoke. Obama should listen.

The goal of every party in every election is to make the opposition a 1 term President. They state it clearly.

Please provide evidence of other party leaders making it their stated #1 goal.

The majority of congressional votes went to democrats..

House Democrats got more votes than House Republicans. Yet Boehner says he’s got a mandate?

You lose again..The voters have spoken. McConnell is an epic failure.

No Mtich McConnell will get a pass because ideology is more important to Conservative than facts, doing what's best for the country, decency or common sense.

Amen OP!!!! Sheeeeeeeyyyyyaaaaattttt Yeeeeeeaaaaahhhh!!!!!

I wanted McConnell to lose more than I wanted Obama to win. I am very happy.

This make the president fail attitude REALLY pissed me off. How disgraceful and contemptuous of our government. That is not leadership-it is fascism. I was quite afraid that he was going to be rewarded for screwing over the American people in his push for one party rule.

Now that his sleazy, scorched earth plan has failed, I expect that folks will give him the sound of one hand clapping.

If he were tossed out in 2014, I would think quite highly of Kentuckians.
