“The theme ‘Yes, we can’ seems to have been replaced with ‘Well, maybe we can’t,’”
I don’t know what Mitt is talking about. I think we’re all in the same boat here, right? First Rush and now Mitt. Is this the gop’s strategy? If so, it’s a weird angle to take 3.75 years before the next election.
Like we could ever be off to a great start…starting off with all the dog shit of the past 8 years stuck to our shoes.
Maybe we can’t…the GOP mantra…
weren’t most bills that passed in the last two year’s dem bills since they had the majority, but keep blaming bush is the easy thing to do for the next 20 years.
Hopefully, Obama can keep that 240 million dollars in the stimulus plan to help hollywood buy film.
Please read this and see how the Japanese liked the last decadade, using the same idiotic ideas we are now. http://www.financialsense.com/editorials/quinn/2009/0128.html
Then go back and read the whole Romney article and realize he makes some good points, that we shouldn’t be buying birth control with a stimulus package.
Also, your speaker is just as dumb as bush, she may top him actually:
Hundreds of millions of dollars to expand family planning services. How is that stimulus?
PELOSI: Well, the family planning services reduce cost. They reduce cost. The states are in terrible fiscal budget crises now and part of what we do for children’s health, education and some of those elements are to help the states meet their financial needs. One of those – one of the initiatives you mentioned, the contraception, will reduce costs to the states and to the federal government.
Pelosi is worthless.
As for the control of the senate since 2006, the dems had the majority but enough of a majority to get anything done. I’ve said this at least 300 times. In fact, the dems still don’t have 60 senators, but, it shouldn’t be too hard to reach across party lines for the votes of a few republicans.
If congress doesn’t act, I guess nothing will get done. Who is willing to cross party lines to get work done?
