The check that gave the government more money to spend and took away almost nothing. Yeah that one.

I think you're being a little too literal. And I do agree both sides send way too much. Before Obama, Bush grew the gov and debt more than anyone.
Regardless the reason the GOP has the majority in both houses is because they promised to cut, not spend more.

this. Obama has no room to bitch about congress whatsoever. He's gotten exactly what he wanted since 2010.

Its almost time for Iowa and I am thinking as long as Teddy holds serve at the debate then he wins Iowa regardless if Trump shows or not.

Oh my. Give me your address so I can send you some needles to pop that bubble you are in. The lack of air in there is clouding your judgement.

please let me know what Obama has not gotten that he wanted since 2010 that congress opposed him on?
PP is still funded.
Obamacare is still in tact.
They didn't block refugees from coming in (well, at least)
We're not paying any less in taxes.
Entitlements haven't decreased.
Days allowed to be on unemployment have not decreased.
What reistance whatsoever has a republican congress given him on his agenda? And i'm not faulting him for his agenda. he has his worldview and i don't fault him for that. i'm just saying congress hasn't done jack shite to get in his way.

Repubs not getting their way on certain things they campaigned on does not equal Obama getting everything he has wanted. Saying something so demonstrably false makes me question how much you even follow politics.
Quite a few bills and nominations to various judicial positions have been blocked. It's fine to be mad that Repubs haven't done as much as they claimed they could. However, to say Repubs in congress have done nothing is flat out false and I'm not even sure why anyone that is being honest would attempt to say otherwise.

They should, if you ever want to see a republican candidate elected to the whitehouse in your lifetime
Posted on 1/27/16 at 3:04 pm to Old Sarge
You think we should change to a popular vote and not by state?
Posted on 1/27/16 at 3:07 pm to Farmer1906
No
I'm saying the Republican Party needs to learn how to identify an electable candidate, get him elected and THEN nit pick the shite out of policy

I'll say it: Trump's staying power baffles me. Honestly I thought the novelty would wear off as '16 approached, but he keeps getting stronger despite his abrasive approach. Would have thought he'd have pissed off the wrong people by this point, but I guess not.
I'm conservative, and would vote for him over Hillary in a heartbeat if it came down to that, but he wasn't my first choice. Keep waiting for the other shoe to drop. Idk, I don't stay on top of the political pulse of the nation like I used to, but this feels like a weird cycle so far.

After the last 2 elections I am done voting for RINOs. Trump or someone similar will not get my vote. I'll got liberation.
