I suspect .. Synth.. is having an epiphany ....

amazing how the GOP can block things with only 41 seats in the senate where the DNC couldnt with 49 seats

Regressives used Roconciliation to pass the Bush Tax Cuts, 51-50.

Both of those PASSED dimwit

Just because the Democrats claim something is or was blocked, does not mean it actually was.

You asked which bills did the Regressives hold up.

If the Dems lose Congress, and become obstructionists just like the Regressives have been, will the Rightwingers on this forum ***** about it?

The only problem i would have with that is if the Dems stopped the de-funding of the rest of the wasteful spending and the upcoming Obamacare.

Outside of that, obstructionism just blocks spending and that is what I am interested in blocking as well.

An epic quagmire is just what is needed for the next 10 years.

Sure, problems usually just go away if you ignore them.

The biggest problem we have right now is that the Congress is spending us into oblivion.

If there is gridlock in the Congress, maybe that will slow down the rubber check express.

Just for the sake of accuracy, there isn't and never was a bill regarding healthcare reform. The bill passed by the Democrat Partisan Hacks was in regard to Insurance Reform. The titles of bills passed by Congress have as much relevance to the actual legislation as the titles of Led Zepplin songs have to their content.

The financial attrocities passed by this Congress are verging on being criminal. They are certainly poorly crafted and are certainly reactionary and probably are aimed at targets that will have no positive impacts on the actual problems.

Opposing these attacks on the rights of citizens and the treasury of the United States was as obstructionist as stopping a murderer from killing your family. Sure, you're stopping someone from doing something, but that thing is so terrible that it should never have been contemplated in the first place.

Wait till a few of those Tea Party crackpot noobs get to Congress and find out they need 60 votes to get anything out of the legislature and 67 votes to get it past the president.

lol, their 20%'er agenda DOA.

But neither were held up. They both passed.

Maybe but I fear that overspending is the only thing they can agree on.

You do realize that Republicans havent had any power to obstruct, right?

You guys control both chambers of Congress and have had a filibuster proof Senate for most of the last two years. What the heck can you possibly blame Republicans for? Not encouraging your own guys to vote for your crappy pieces of legislation?

Boggles the mind.

First off you have to beleive the bullshit lie from the dems that the republicans are obstructionists. Maybe they just want to slow down the socialistic spending of the dimboob socialist idiots.

....There will be dancing in the streets! People are not gonna miss this worst U.S. Congress in History. Time for them to go.

hey, gridlock
a win/win
nothing gets fucked up any worse than it already is

 

[skookerasbil]

Do you mean, if they propose and pass legislation that is vetoed by the President? Surely...why wouldn't they?

LMAO...............Medeline decimates another k00k....................

The whole point of our system of government was to be obstructionist! The less power those gubamint types have to **** us with National Obama Care or Cap and Tax the better.
Our representatives aren't supposed to "get together in a bi-partisan manner" to **** us over with idiotic legislation that they haven't even read!

***** about their obstructionism. Hmmmm.... Maybe. I haven't decided yet. I'll probably ***** more about how hypocritical they are by causing obstruction when they don't compromise their values to 'meet conservatives half way'.

But, I haven't decided yet.

I just know they will obstruct anything that doesn't support progressofascism.

 

[CrusaderFrank]

The American people will rejoice when the Progressive Jihad is brought to a halt this November. The Dem lame duck session will go down by trying to pull the country down around their ears like they were Hitler in the bunker. Repubs will not get anything Obama would sign so its a logjam until Dems lose another 75 seats and the presidency in 2012

 

[uscitizen]

Dems lose control? repubs lose control? Whatsa diff?

Lots of difference in talk but not much difference in walk.

You had 60 votes for a while, and 59 before that. Could have passed it instantly at any time. The GOP would never have bothered to fillibuster for real. Woulda just taken calling them on their bluff.

Why didn't they?
