Obama's Jobs Bill May Get Tweaked To Pick Up Democratic Votes

Wednesday, October 5, 2011


The democrats NEVER had 60 senators.

==========­==========­==========­==

What I said is: "During the Bush years, Democrats said if the People wanted change, they had to put Democrats in the majority in Congress. So in 2006, we did.  In 2008, we did.  We gave them 60 for the Democratic Caucus. And we gave them the White House."

That is simply a fact.  

There is NOTHING that Harry Reid or Nancy Pelosi is doing that isn't at the direction of the White House. It's all Obama-sanc­tioned.

When you're the president, you are the head of your political party. When your political party controls both Houses of Congress and the White House, you do what the head of your party tells you to do. Especially when it's a hugely popular president who came into the White House with more Americans having voted for him and his campaign of CHANGE than had ever voted before.

That's 'Titanium' political capital, and Obama came into office oozing it. So much that the GOP was in a puddle in the gutter outside of the US Capitol. Is that really a vague memory? After the 2008 election, Republican­s weren't just on the ropes; they were down for the count and what did Obama do? He issued them a pardon.

Democrats like to hide the 'hierarchy of party control and power' from voters, and lend the illusion of democracy (small 'd'), like "herding cats", "no organized party", etc., but that's how it is, and it's the only reason there are political parties.
