I hear that "Dems held Congress for 2 years before Obama took the Oath, and 2 years after" stuff all the time.
The two years after Obama took office are the only part relevant to Obama.
During those 2 years Republican Senators filibustered EVERYTHING they could, in historically unprecedented numbers.
Don't act like Democrats were free to get anything done
Like I said, Obama isn't a leader. That's why he couldn't get anything done.
Obama couldn't get anything done because Republicans have not sent him anything to sign.
Then when he takes executive action, Republicans belly ache about him being a tyrant and violating the Constitution!
Obama's problem is that he is naïve.
He thought "Yes We Can" was something he could unite Democrats and Republicans on. He did not realize that Republicans would say "No we won't"
Washington is tied up right now, and I'm voting Republican for President because it's time Republicans stop blaming Obama, and start working, and see if what they have planned will actually work;
Back seat driving is easy. They can go on all day about "if only he would have"
