comgress polarized? blame the GOP

[Truthmatters]

Your party is trying to hold the American people back from the representation they voted for

 

[naturegirl]

why do you refuse to face the facts that the republican party is acting against how the founders designed the system?

That is exactly why people are electing tea party representaivies. In order to get back to how the founders designed the system. Checks and balances.
Not minority rule over the majority of which we have become.

Dear idiot,

the republican party is the minority

Where are they the Minority?? Certainly not in congress.

Your complete lack of understanding how America's election process works is a testament to America's failing education system. I know your sole mission here is to attack Republican's, but the avenue you are choosing is simply revealing your complete ineptness by taking on a subject far above your level of comprehension. Now if we were to argue basket weaving, I suppose you might have an edge.

Fuck off troll unless you can face facts and bring facts to bare

here ya go, again

A democracy is nothing more than mob rule, where 51 percent of the people may take away the rights of the other 49." - Thomas Jefferson

 

[Truthmatters]

there is not one fact in that post is there

 

[Truthmatters]

Your party is in the minority of our government.

the house is not all of congress is it

Do you realize Congress is made up of the House and Senate?? I think there are more Republicans in Congress than Dems. However, the Dems control the Senate because there are more Dems in the Senate, there are 50 members total and the Republicans Control the House - 435 members.

 

[paulitician]

Yup, the Democrats control the White House and the U.S. Senate, but it's all the Republican's fault. Man, Obamabots sound more deranged by the day.

 

[Truthmatters]

And the republicans are not teh majority huh?

the American people did NOT elect the republicans to control the country did they?

How many times must facts fall on your deaf ears?????? Profanity is a Liberal's last resort when their talking points have become drivel.

Gridlock in Congress? Blame the GOP - CNN.com


many years, journalists and scholars have lamented the rise of partisan polarization on Capitol Hill. The number of moderates has vastly declined and the number of bills that receive bipartisan support has greatly diminished. The usual culprits range from the advent of the 24-hour news cycle to changing demographics.

But now observers are starting to note that both parties are not equally to blame, especially in recent years.

In their new book, "It's Even Worse Than It Looks," Thomas Mann and Norman Ornstein -- two of the most prominent talking heads in Washington, known for their balanced view and proclivity toward moderation -- say that the Republican Party is to blame.

"The GOP," they wrote in a Washington Post op-ed based on the book, "has become an insurgent outlier in American politics." Mann and Ornstein trace the partisan style back to the emergence of Newt Gingrich and Grover Norquist in the 1970s, when the two men promoted a style of slash-and-burn, take-no-prisoners politics that has remained integral to the strategy of congressional Republicans

Oh the Irony.

Yes blame the Republicans. They should just let the Democrats do whatever they want regardless of how destructive it is for our nation.

Just saying

your just going to ignore the facts given?

 

[DiamondDave]

Why are you ignoring my question TM?
I will repeat.
Why did Jefferson say he wanted to see the Republican element pushed to the max Tm?

why did he call us a democracy?

Why did he call us a Republic??

why did he call us a democracy?

He didn't.
He said representative democracy (majority of voters) pushed by a Republic form of government (outlined in our Constitution of what type of Republic we should be).
