Oh that is most definitely the case. What have Americans said they want from the "new" Congress? Address minimum wage, lower the cost of student loans, increase spending on infrastructure, address climate change, create jobs (real jobs, not the 35 permanent jobs to be created by the Keystone Pipeline). So what are these bozos doing? Suing the president. Can't wait to see the bill for this.

You cannot make this stuff up. They seemed to have total amnesia regarding the 90s. The definition of insanity is what? When the Republicans run Congress all they do is waste money by going after the Democratic president and then the country turns on them. Newt Gingrich can move over and make room at CNN. There will be many joining him in the future. These guys are so predictable.

We all know that simply charging for a drivers license is considered a tax, so would an application fee to stay.

Really, you have some exit polling showing this is why people voted for the GOP? I would love to see that.

wow, I just saw a short documentary how Democrats got Obamacare pushed through with all Democrat votes and no Republicans. Wow that was freaking dirty politics. No wonder why Republicans kicked ass in 2010 and 2014.

Obama and his bots are disgusting, pathetic, self-serving, dirty people.

Great post. All those very real problems you outline in your first paragraph will be completely ignored in favor of lawsuits, impeachment and government shut downs. That is the GOP's idea of governing. They are like petulant children.

Are you sure you're talking about the US Congress? If so, can you tell us the names of those Republicans who ran on increasing the minimum wage, stimulus spending, or global warming?

There is very little GOP doesn't like from Obama EO. When people will be tired of fury and move on to the next issue, GOP will fund it.

All this lawsuit BS is all a gimmick. You know, Gruber isn't the only guy that thinks that American voters are dumb. GOP leaders share the same thinking.
