Yep. They knew that we still needed to govern, whereas this crop, rather than setting governing as a priority, are intent on causing Obama to fail.

Mr. Bush was nearly as compliant. Part of the reason the far right types became angry with him and McCain as well. No Child Left Behind comes to mind as an example. Too cozy with Uncle Teddy.

That does seem to be the centerpiece of their agenda, doesn't it?

Mitch McConnell stated that his prime task was to see that Obama is a one term president, could not be more barefaced than that.

No I have not changed my mind because Obama has managed to get some things done despite the actions of the obstructor in chief Mitch McConnell manipulating Senate rules to block most of the legislation from passing out of the Senate. Over two hundred filibusters.

No it's far worse, Pete. I'm in California. We actually read here.

There's a record the lyin' GOPer can run on. I can see the bumper stickers now, "Look at me! I'm the filibuster king! Vote for me!" subtext "we'll fuck you in places you've never dreamt of." Probably need a Cadillac or a Hummer to fit it all on, tho.

"We won, back of the bus" Obama never even started out in a spirit of bipartisanship. Shoving the monstosity through, so called Obamacare, ended any hope of bipartisanship. He's been a pompous arrogant elitist with no pretense of playing fair in any sort of a bipartisan spirit. Sadly, there appear to be enough unions folks, government employees, and various leftist groups that he may get reelected. His record of absence was clear back in 2007, but too many failed to heed the warnings. Hopefully, even if he wins, the opposition will prevail in Congress.

I'm still waiting to hear all the great things that Obama has done. There is a reason he will not be running on his record.
