It's time we separated those people who live by their ideology of hatred, (wacked out right) and those of us who are against the gangsters who have been ripping everybody for years.
Actually it's even worse. The GOP doesn't give a hoot about anything except their own political futures, preventing the Democrats from passing any meaningful legislation, and making Obama appear inept. The GOP Congress critters could not care less about the problems of the people because they themselves are generally personally unaffected.
That said, many dems aren't being helpful either and Obama is doing a pretty good job making himself look ineffective by not coming out swinging to get things done at home or to end our endless involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan. We've shed more than enough blood for these people. The people of these countries are in a terrible spot...led by corrupt, inept, and self-serving politicians...sorta like us....except the alternatives are even worse...cruel religious fanatics with guns.
At the moment I pretty much loathe the whole bunch in Washington....except for truth speakers like Grayson.

This type of behavior is not limited to one party in Congress. Focusing mostly on power and partisanship is symptomatic of Potomac Fever- a highly-infectious disease few in Congress are immune to.
is fair/unfair for the gander. At this particular moment I believe what I said is true. In the next Congress the situation might be reversed. Regardless. we the people are currently being ignored by the Republicans as they pursue their political agenda.
Check out all the GOPers saying the same thing that Rep. Grayson said on the House floor in the past few months, including NC's own Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-Crazytown). She's in the second minute of the clip.
yesterday. I guess all the Democrats were hard at work on Healthcare but the Republicans used the floor of Congress in their absence to shred the President. Rep. Trent Franks R-Arizona claiming it was Acorn and Obama as THE individual who single handedly started the mortgage meltdown, another Rep. Mike Pence R-Indiana with his big graphic entitled the "Obama Stimulus Swindle"
Grayson's comments
What's your take on this?
Do good. Be nice. Have fun.
I say, "Pour it on"!

Grayson's mother has her say
Very funny
Do good. Be nice. Have fun.
Grayson simply said what most informed people are thinking.

Unfair
This type of behavior is not limited to one party in Congress. Focusing mostly on power and partisanship is symptomatic of Potomac Fever- a highly-infectious disease few in Congress are immune to.
One can always say what's fair/unfair for the goose
is fair/unfair for the gander. At this particular moment I believe what I said is true. In the next Congress the situation might be reversed. Regardless. we the people are currently being ignored by the Republicans as they pursue their political agenda.

My thoughts are that GOPers are shocked
...that someone dares to use their own tactics.
I refer to a clip in my earlier comment.

Reprehensible tactics and total hypocrites.
Progressives are the true conservatives.
