@cicerone imposter,
Quote:. Obama is battling a GOP majority in the House who handicaps anything he wishes to do about creating jobs
I would accept this as a valid argument, except that for the first 2 years of his administration he had a democrat controlled House and Senate.
You can argue that the repubs threatened to use procedural tricks to block any votes, all of them legal BTW, but that does not negate the fact that all the dems had to do was call a vote and vote together.
Whatever they voted for would have passed.
