More than once.

Time to get down to business of running this country.
With or without the GOP.
The Gotcha Old Party.

Funny how they used to wail and gnash about the "gotcha media" and now all they have is a string of never-ending gotchas.

He's has tried bipartisanship. LMAO!


Bipartisanship doesn't work with locked doors between you. Bipartisanship to hussein obama means, you agree or nothing.

Yeah, that's why single-payer and the public-option were stripped from the HC bill.

You may think just repeating the same old mantra, day in, day out, makes reality somehow magically align with your daydreams, but it doesn't.

He tried bi-partisanship? Like locking everyone who didn't agree with him out of meetings concerning the nation as a whole?

As for time to get down to running the country, without the consent or representation of half the people? That is what is called totalitarianism. Not exactly what this country was founded on.

And the democrats are already planning future attempts to put it back in. Doesn't sound like they were stripped, merely delayed.

Yeah and the right wants to continue to waterboard and nation-topple. So what? A plan is a plan that has to be approved democratically. If you don't like the congressional HC bill vote tally, perhaps you should really be directing your anger at the republicans who failed to get elected after running the country into the drink for 8 years?

Why do you hate our government process that has been in place for hundreds of years? Somehow it's suddenly, "unfairly ramming things through" when the DEMS have the majority. Funny how the worm turns when the shoe is on the other foot. I guess NAFTA was "unfairly rammed through" by a republican congress, too.

Republicans...Democrats...they are all misguided, imo..driven by their own idealogy. People need to read, research, and think for themselves and be able to back up their beliefs with facts, not talking points...and that goes for both sides! Frankly, I think most Americans are tired of the bs from the Dems AND Repubs.

Obama is getting hit hard because he was supposed to represent a turning point in this country. No more back door deals, no under the table hand outs, no more politics as usual...that was the change he was supposed to bring. However, once again, it is politics as usual..same-ole-same-ole. Alot of people trusted him and actually "believed" him. He was supposed to represent the "people" and so far he has been on the down side of most issues.

Maybe people will realize (soon hopefully) that real change doesnt come from Washington, it comes from the American people. When one man (any man) talks about change that he alone is going to bring...people should always be skeptical.
