WASHINGTON (AP) - One of President Barack Obama's top advisers says Republicans are using inaction as a political strategy. White House aide David Axelrod said Sunday that the GOP has used its opposition to a climate change bill as a plan for next year's congressional elections. He said the rival party should instead focus on how to help rebuild the economy.

Axelrod’s “climate change” bill has absolutely NOTHING to do with the “climate” or the “environment.” It’s about MONEY. Big Money! Money, money, money. Pelosi thinks it’s a “jobs program.” No mention of “climate change.”

Axelrod is an atomic-strength kool-aid drinking loon. Opposition to the ‘climate change’ bill WILL help rebuild the economy.

Juan Williams on Fox just now said the same thing, and Brit Hume had to beat him over the head with it. This must be the latest dem talking point.

Yes, I’m sure he wants the Repubs to ‘do more’ so that they can take the blame.

Hey Axelrod, you dingleberry, getting as many of you closet commies out of power as possible in 2010 is the strategy to rebuild the economy.

That'd be obstructionist. The DEMs won. Now THEY need to get on with THEIR plans.

How dare they do nothing.

If they want to do something they can begin by insisting on calling this bill what it is, an energy tax. Leave climate out of it-- it has nothing to do with climate.

They've been told over and over and over by Barack Obama that he won.

Why would the Republicans do anything? He won, he owns his own agenda.

What's the problem?

Any free-thinking individual knows that the best way to rebuild the economy is for the Keystone-Kops Government to do nothing.

Mr. Axelrod, I don't want your "help". I don't need your "help". Your idea of 'action' put millions of otherwise-free Americans in perpetual economic slavery. But then, you and your Dark Lord Master know this.

The democrats always have “good” advise for the Opposition.
Poor things, they mean well...

So many lamp posts, not enough democrats.

Why should Republicans listen to Democrats for advise?

Uh, Dave, what was the platform the Dems ran on in 2006 and 2008? “Bush sucks. Bush is evil. Bush lied, people died. Bush caused The Great Flood.”

OK, you won with that. Now that the tables are turning, you can’t deal with it?

Oh, well!!!

I would maintain that the Democrats pushing a bill with 300 pages of non existing information might be worse than inaction. It is more like fraud.
