A 'blameless' Obama scolds Congress

In his Saturday radio and Internet address, President Barack Obama excoriated House Republicans for commencing their scheduled recess at a time when there were numerous bills to be voted on that allegedly would have buttressed the economy.

“Last week, without much fanfare, members of the House of Representatives banged a gavel, turned out the lights and rushed home, declaring their work finished for now,” Obama began. “If that frustrates you, it should, because their work isn’t finished.

“When they skipped town, members of Congress left a whole bunch of proposals sitting on the table. These ideas have been around for months. The American people want to see them passed.”

In what can only be described as the pot calling the kettle black, Obama said, “But apparently some members of Congress are more worried about their jobs and their paychecks this campaign season than they are about yours.”

” These ideas have been around for months. The American people want to see them passed.”
In 2010 the American people sent a republican majority to the house. Maybe Obama and Harry the cadaver are not real clear on what the American people want. The only thing Harry the cadaver will let through are democrat bills.

Barry has no interest in being president. He is interested in getting his policies passed that will complete the destruction if the U.S. He is interested in hobnobbing with the rich and famous. He is interested in campaigning for his next term so he can do more of the above. But he has absolutely no interest in fulfilling day to day leadership and presidential duties.
