Story of the day....Didn't the Republicans lose this election?


The president has been trying to play nice all day with the Republican caucus in Congress to get his stimulus package passed. Obama is playing the bipartisanship card, and the fucktards in the GOP (namely turkey-neck Senator Mitchell and orange-glow Rep. Boehner) are sabotaging the plan no matter what concessions are made, such as removing family-planning money (which would create jobs in the health industry as well as keep poorer families from being forced to have the burden of an unplanned pregnancy - and I'm just talking birth control here) to mortgage revision (to allow bankruptcy judges to lower undue interest rates on burdened homeowners). I say go by your first instinct, Mr. President. You won. The American people overwhelmingly wants YOUR guidance for the country, not theirs. You have fucking capital now, USE it.
