Of course the fact that the GOP won the House based on a campaign entirely dedicated to "creating jobs," and then spent the entire two years looking for jobs in women's vaginas, has NOTHING to do with said ineffectiveness ...
congress is made up of TWO HOUSE..the house of rep, and the house of the senate
and the FAILURE was in the senate...

Gee, ever think that "that's what happens when you only put forward bills that have 'no chance' of passing the Senate - let alone be signed by the President"?
The House simply didn't put forward realistic bills because they were not COMPROMISE bills. You can't create a bill that reflects just the GOP point of view and expect a Democratically controlled Senate to approve it.
The party of HELL NO double down on their strategy. Did not work. Poll after poll shows that folks blame GOP the most for our broken gov't.
The same people let the GOP keep control of the House. In other words, American's love divided government, no matter what a poll says. I firmly believe that when the undecided voters became convinced that the GOP would keep control of the House, they became more comfortable with Barack Obama as President and voted accordingly.
Divided government is a longstanding American principle.
That's precisely why there was a "GOP wave" in 2010. To stop the trajectory of this President's policies.
Why is that hard for liberals to understand?
I thought their wave was the expected counter movement to progress. But just like all waves it dissipated once it hit rock [eight years of Obama].
