Blame Bush, blame the Republicans... blame anyone but me!

Keep that chin up and strut out that door.

 

[Patranus]

I am pretty sure it is the rules that insist 60 votes are needed not the GOP

 

[Tristicus]

Fox news is a "news outlet" right? Or did they register as a political party?

Oh, yes, I forgot, he tried to shut them down because they were a news outlet, not because they don't favor the left. How stupid of me.

 

[Budmantom]

Dems solve problems..... LOL

and the filibuster was not intended to be a requirement for a 60 vote supermajority the way it is being used.

They really have the 60% clapping.

You don't have a mandate, Mr. Obama.

Obama you still don't get it. You are not serving this country, nor are you listening. Your "party of No" only works with die hard democrats. You do NOT love this country, you HATE it. And now this country and we the people will defeat you.

[Budmantom]

Maobama talking about security.......

 

[Turin39789]

Oh, yes, I forgot, he tried to shut them down because they were a news outlet, not because they don't favor the left. How stupid of me.

he was talking about elected officials not doing their jobs in favor of scoring political points.

 

[Zorkorist]

Pardon me... 59%

Huge stretch since you could say that about any bill. Republicans are only pretending to be concerned about jobs otherwise they would favor ending those breaks. Prez needs to call them on this quickly.

Wait and see. The agenda of a President and Congress (even within his own party) are not the same much of the time. Will Reps fight? Of course, but there have been a great many SOTU addresses, and what's said and what's done aren't the same.

 

[Tristicus]

He was talking about media and politicians in general. Hence why he said headlines on the Washington post or what the hell ever.

If you bothered looking at the heathcare polls. Republicans are only doing what the population wants.

One good thing. Troops out by August. Mark that.

Maybe the stupid fuck that wrote the rule should have been more clear.

 

[Tristicus]

Didn't he say that last year...?

 

[Genx87]

Whatever happened to the campaign promise to have us out in 16 months?

 

[spidey07]

The freaking head turning from prompter to prompter is really annoying. I don't think I've ever actually seen his eyes directly. Do not trust.

 

[Gunslinger08]

I know this is crazy, but has a politician ever asked his constituents how they want him to vote on each issue? Take a survey on each big issue and vote how they want? Would that be so hard?
