GOP Obstruction....?

[M14 Shooter]

The GOP members of the House and Senate were elected, at least in part, to prevent The Obama from further implementing His agenda.

In that, when the Dems/liberals refer to them as "obstructionist" aren't they really just confirming to the voters that their reps/senators are doing what they were elected to do?

a simpleton might see it that way.

Nope.

Obama was elected to stop the radical right agenda.

 

[BlindBoo]

The obstruction started long before the 2010 midterms.

Before the health care fight, before the economicstimulus package, before President Obama even took office, SenatorMitch McConnell, the Republican minority leader, had a strategy for his party: use his extensive knowledge of Senate procedure to slow things down, take advantage of the difficulties Democrats would have in governing and deny Democrats any Republican support on big legislation.

Republicans embraced it. Democrats denounced it as rank obstructionism. Either way, it has led the two parties, as much as any other factor, to where they are right now.

7 YOU are the simpleton

 

[Rikurzhen]

well, Hillary's white ... you'll feel better soon.

All that Hillary has going for her is that she's a woman. Women and manginas will vote for her simply because of her sex. Competence is immaterial to identity warriors.

So when Obama vetoes every piece of legislation the House and Senate pass is he being obstructionist or is he just doing what he was elected to do?
Oops.

Oops.

Only Republicans can be obstructionist.
If you don't believe me, just ask most of the media.

Then you should have no trouble with believing that.

She is also a blonde. She just might be worse than obutthurt, maybe.

No Obama was elected because we didn't want another Republican moron in the White House.....although it's not hard to see that some think of it as the White's House.

All of which was intended to do what?
Keep The Obama from implementing His agenda.
What were the Republicans elected to Congress to do?
Keep The Obama from implementing His agenda.
In that have they not mostly succeeded?
