This Shutdown isn’t about Obamacare…it’s about OBAMA [View all]

snip

THAT is why, when one looks back at the list of accomplishments by President Obama in his first term in office..




They were done WITHOUT GOP votes.

snip

This country has been forced to run itself on continuing resolutions.

The President said the other day that the two things the House of Representatives are charged with are the following:
1. Produce a budget
2. Pay the bills the United States runs up

And, they have DELIBERATELY been AWOL with both duties.

The party that inherited a BUDGET SURPLUS from Bill Clinton and didn’t two shyts about budget deficits as they:
1. Lied us into not one, but TWO wars that were kept ‘ off the books’
2. Put in place tax cuts during wartime – something NEVER EVER done before
3. Put in place the unpaid for Medicare Part D


The Rest Here.
