Sorry but the Democrats and liberals have had total control of the Congress since 2007. They and they alone are responsible for not passing a long term budget. The only reason they are trying to do it now is beause they do not want to take any blame. As usual.

Wow, Zoid is really out there. Obama has had a filibuster-proof majority in the senate for three months. Three. Months. He also has the first minority senate in history to filibuster every idea, no matter how good or how bad, no matter whether it’s ours or theirs, as a matter of day-to-day business. Did you se where the Republicans blocked a bill to allow the payments to the survivors of soldiers killed in combat to rise with the cost of living? Really? Just to get at Obama? The goal is not to help America, the goal is to keep hurting America in every way they can until they get voted into power. There’s no way such a nihilistic, anti-American approach can give them the overwhelming majority they’d need to pursue their hugely unpopular policies.

Elect Romney. He will not cut any entitlements, he will increase defense spending, he will give large financial gifts to Big Business, he will give everyone huge tax cuts, AND he’ll balance the budget, all at once.
We need a man like that.

Whatever you do, don’t cut the military! 700 billion dollar per year is the bare minimum that a country like the USA needs. You need more guns, bigger guns, more man, more machines, more planes, more tanks. If you have enough of these the whole world will love you. Or else…

@NeoconMan
…give large financial gifts to Big business, like Obama bailing out all the ones that were “too big to fail,” and all the billions of dollars to businesses that were doomed to fail. It’s sad that partisanship blinds folks to the fact that the GOP and the Democratic Party are NOT polar opposites, but rather are guided by the same progressive (anti-capitalist/pro-facsist) agenda. And before you try to remind me what fascism is, you should look up the definition yourself.

He also has the blood of our Libyan ambassador and his bodyguards on his hands. BTW, has Obama decided to name a NEW ambassador to Libya? No, he’s still to busy talking about Big Bird.

How can you keep repeating Faux News lies? The elephants have used their filibuster power to keep anything useful to the economy from getting out of Congress since 2007-8.

You make a good point. It’s been pointed out that Obama took over the presidency in ’08 and handed over 3/4 trillion in TARP and another 3/4 trillion in stimuli, and squandered another $535 billion on Solyndra.
Of course the dimlibs will say it was $535 millions not billions, but if you do math like I do, the homoeopathic way, a billion is only one thousandth of a million, so it was 1000 times worse than you said!

All the demoncrats have done in negotiations with the reTHUGlicans is give up some gound, some more ground and finally meets the original republican position only for the reTHUGlicans to say, no scream “NO!”

Delusional world? Check your passport buddy. You certainly don’t reside in reality. A reality where the republicans openly declared their intent to undermine anything the president wanted to do for the last several years.

@HOWGOZIT
What news about GM being trouble? You mean the recall of 40,000 cars? Is that all you can come up with a relatively minor recall? I guess Toyota with their recall of 7.43 million cars (186 times as many) must be on the verge of devastation then. Or what about Honda with 1.67 million vehicles subject to recall?
.
As usual ZIT has no clue except that he hates Obama and will twist anything, fabricate any lie to achieve his agenda. Maybe he should just pop.
TheTrustedMechanic said, 7 months ago
I see our republican members are still either too stupid to understand or too ignorant to acknowledge that the TARP was initiated AND passed into law under king george so don’t blame that on President Obama. The stimulus increased the number of people employed by between 1.4 million and 3.3 million. As for Solydra, there were other factors at play, like China dumping solar panels on the market at below cost subsidized prices thus making Solyndra uncompetitive and thereby causing the failure. Based on information known now it was a bad deal from the start, but it wasn’t certain to fail, until China pulled their BS that is. So only part of one of our republican members’ complaints is valid, for the reDUMBlicans that’s still pretty good performance.
