Where's the outrage over GOP poison pills attached - to every jobs bill that passes through Congress?

[ In Reply To ..]
Bill after bill has been amended after GOP jobs-killers tack on such counterproductive measures as repeal of ACA, for example, a fatal bullet deliberately shot through the heart of the effort, thus keeping millions of American workers either on the UE rolls or among the discouraged uncounted ranks.

Post after post trying to lay this at President Obama's feet only serve to showcase their support of Mitch McConnell's one-term-president strategic declaration. From now until November, dems will be countering this empty punch with the specifics on exactly what is at the bottom of Congressional ineptitudes, now that the election is drawing nigh and more voters are paying attention.

Get ready, because this particular aspect of the campaign is about to get really, really ugly. I might add, those unemployed millions will NOT REMAIN SILENT and their voices cannot be suppressed no matter how hard the GOP tries to change the rules or pin this tail on the donkey. They know very well who's been doing what on their behalf, and who hasn't.

Democratic majority... - SK1

How come posts like this one, slamming the GOP, never talk about the democrat majority during Obama's first two years in office?

Exactly. Obama got his failed stimulus, now has - job-killing Obamacare -Dems in denial.nm

a majority to overcome a filibuster.

Do you even know what a filibuster is? - I don't think so.

Evidently you think not, especially if you are trying - to defend

absurd notion that a democratic micromajority amounts to a hill of beans within Capitol Hill's Senate chambers. You'd be mighty mistaken and, in fact, appear to be the one who doesn't know what they are talking about.

Please stop playing coy. - Do you really think

dem candidates and campaign surrogates can't articulate filibuster rules? I'd be willing to bet explainer-in-chief BC can reduce it down to a couple of sentences that even an illiterate voter can understand.

Ever heard of filibuster? Check out how - many first 2 years NM

read the bills, you might learn what's going on? Stop listening to the poison pills; i.e., Reid, Pelosi, Schumer, and others spout their bull. Listen to the Senate sessions. You'll see which side spews hate.

ACA=a job-killing, health insurance-killing disaster. Listen to businesses on ACA. Listen to the doctors. Seriously. We have a doctor shortage in this country now. What will it be like in 2014? Listen to regular people about ACA. How many polls were out and what was the percentage of those against ACA? It was quite high, wasn't it? This is America and ACA is another freedom of choice being taken away and a government program forced on them. People don't want to lose the coverage they have now if they like it (and it's written in the law that they will as ACA evolves into the full law), or pay the extra taxes that are going into effect in 2013 to help pay for it plus taking the $716B from Medicare.

We all see how good the government manages programs in effect presently. You really want the government to handle your health care too? I sure don't.

Poison pills??? Would that be the red pill or the blue pill - Morpheus

I think the poison pill comment is a little drastic. You should leave that to Cass.

I was listening to a Chamber of Commerce guy talking about business last night. He was saying he would like to infuse more talent from India into our state (by bringing Indian workers here). He was talking about professionals, not factory and industrial workers). Okay. Maybe it is time to address the question, what do the Indian workers bring here that we do not have? I understand the outsourcing being cheap labor, but why are there so many Indian doctors, ...

This is a very long article. I only posted a little of it. You'll have to follow the link for the rest.

Now for the worrisome twist: The cash portion of their compensation rose 8.3 percent. That's a sign that companies are de-emphasizing long-term incentives for their top guys, a par ...

I was sad to hear this because I liked him. But, as usual, it's because of the DNC's push for Hillary only.

In a press conference Tuesday afternoon, Webb said political candidates are "increasingly out of step with the people they're supposed to serve," claiming Americans also are increasingly independent -- and uncomfortable with "the extremes."

She's just finishing up a course of amoxicillin for an abscessed tooth she had. So when she started complaining of her ear hurting, I couldn't believe it would be infected. She swims almost every day. Plus over the weekend went on a trip and she swam over the weekend and then went to a water park on Monday. Needless to say her ear is bothering her. Ibuprofen works to get rid of the pain, but she feels there's water in her ear and I want to try to get ...

Another year has come and gone. We ended up going to the movies to see the Little Fockers. It was pretty funny. We went to the grocery store beforehand to pick up some snacks for today and then grabbed dinner at a fast food place the kids picked. Overall, it was a pretty good evening. I went to bed about 11:30 (I tried but could not stay awake), but the kids stayed up till a little after 12 with DH. After that, they went off to bed. I'm actually looking ...

I'm the parent of a toddler, no other kids. I'm 42 and she just turned 3. My husband is at home too, but he is disabled from physical issues as well as mental ones. I was a stay-at-home transcriptionist way before I became a mother and I am overwhelmed with it all. My husband is there for us maybe 50% of the time, which just isn't cutting it. He is my only source of support, as we have no family, no friends (thank you isolating career move), and we ju ...

It looked the same as it always does. I had to make him leave and go get on the bus and I felt awful having him leave upset. This morning, it is about 40 degrees outside here, and he did not want to wear a jacket of any sort. He has about 10 hoodies tha ...

Anyone have any specific traditions they do New Year's Eve or NY Day? Both of those days vary for us as we've gotten older. NY Eve we USED to do it up big, get all duded up, go to a banquet hall, dance, ring in the New Year with Champagne, leave after midnight. These days, we just go out for a quiet dinner with friends, or do a little thing at someone's house. Staying up until after midnight is optional for us these days, but we've been doing pretty good ringing it in. ...

Yeah, it's my mother. Maybe that says it all. She has told me she wishes she could change how she and my father parented my brothers and me when we were growing up. In the 60s and 70s nobody really thought about how to parent. They just did it, good and bad, so I'm dealing with the fallout of their choices just like every other person alive. I think we've had the normal ups and downs, although my mother has been and continues to be a very critical, judgmental person, not jus ...

He has undergone craniotomy to stop the bleed, and has had most of his skull removed on both sides b/c of brain swelling. He was brought out of his coma last week and after three hours of no brain function and being told he was brain dead, his mother and brothers and sisters left the hospital and headed to church to pray with the youth group ...

Or, heck, even if you have many years ahead of you in terms of needing to work-work, I'm open to ideas. I am thinking of volunteer work.
