Thoughts on the President

[Laerod]

Not passing bills definitely doesn't solve any problems. And when some of those problems can only be solved by the government, like infrastructure, problems with immigration, etc., then not passing bills is pretty shameful.

Explain to me how Congress can solve immigration by not passing bills? Explain to me how the healthcare situation was going to improve by doing nothing? Explain to me how we're going to address our failing infrastructure by screaming about Benghazi? How can we help veterans while sitting on our hands?

I'm not saying not passing bills is a good idea. I'm just saying that passing more bills isn't always or usually good.

And now that it's been argued that Republican obstructionism has cost the country dearly you may now reveal why not passing bills was a good thing in this particular case.

You're doing a great job at replying to things nobody actually said and refusing to address the myriad of questions and replies people are actually posting.

Now, would you like to address anything of substance? Why is this Congress not at fault? What have they tried to accomplish? Why are they better than the Congress from 2008 to 2010? You claimed the President can't point the finger at them, but we've shown repeatedly that when the Republicans were not in control that we actually addressed national issues. We've shown that after Republicans got control of the house, it's been the most obstructionist Congress in modern history. And your reply is...
