Yet, we continue to waste mental energy in these futile attempts to have a genuine meeting of the minds.
Diversity is not a "one way street" & compromise has rarely occured in the Obama Administration. The President has again and again rejected genuine discourse with those of a different mind & then push through his own agenda.
President Obama is advocating for his agenda because Dem policies have been proven to work Whereas republican/conservative policies have been a disaster for the economy. There is nothing about republican policies that have ever worked ...not for the economy, not for national security, not for health care, not for the well being of Americans That is why Obama and Dems are pushing for their agenda because IT WORKS You are certainly encouraged to let us know how republican policies would be better for Americans and the world...please do. And be positive for republican policies not just dissing Dem policies. While advocating for the same policies that got us into the economic mess tell us how republicans are suddenly going to do things that work

Bully American people because "It Works" : : : "Hardly reassuring words when you look at the reality. According to the Center for Labor Market Studies at Northeastern University, about 53.6 percent of men and women under the age of 25 who hold bachelor?s degrees were jobless or underemployed last year, the most in at least 11 years. According to the Pew Research Center, if we broaden the age group to 18- to 29-year-olds, an estimated 37 percent are unemployed or out of the work force, the highest share in more than three decades."

So you're saying that the Democrats aren't cleaning up the republicans mess fast enough : : : Four and a half MILLION jobs where lost starting in 2007 because of republican policies. Jobs have been steadily increasing under the Democrats and in fact ALL PRIVATE SECTOR JOBS LOST IN THE RECESSION HAVE BEEN RECOVERED The problem has been with public sector jobs which republicans have targeted for loss in their austerity programs for states. The republican policy of cuts to the public sector to reduce deficit DOES NOT WORK Europe is finding out the hard way. So really why you got other then the dems are not cleaning your mess up fast enough : : : : : : : : You twisted this around again without stating what it is that the republicans would do I don't think you have any idea what they would do http://thinkprogress.org/economy/2012/05/04/478368/478368/ Come on let us all know about all the great ideas the republicans have

Not surprising considering that none of the wingnuts here can even give an explanation of why they support the republicans It's a clinical definition of cognitive dissonance. You guys vote against your own interests because you're been brain washed by the likes of limbaugh and faux news. What a world disaster the republicans have been You don't like being insulted well then don't support policies that hurt people and their families. Don't support policies that are responsible for killing the Earth.. You're not respected because you follow stupid dangerous policies that hurt people.

May 20, 2012 Most 'Divisive Figure in Modern American History' by: Daniel Halper Florida senator Marco Rubio slammed President Barack Obama in a South Carolina speech ... ... referring to his 2004 DNC speech and 2008 presidential run. ... ?The man who today occupies the White House ... is a very different person ... http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/rubio-obama-most-divisive-figure-modern-american-history_645218.html

Again, no ideas from the republicans or their supporters about policies that can work. They've never had any of their policies work so I don't even understand why they exist. Here is what worked for mittens in Indiana
I'm sure he would do the same for the whole of the US if given a chance -
Sally, I coulda' sworn you'd challenged our conservative friends to post Republican plans that they feel will work or have worked. Did I miss something? All I see are links to irrelevant Web articles.

Do you insiders have an information ..... or a guess how they are going to get rid of V.P. Joe Biden? There are rumors all the time about letting him go and putting Hilary Clinton in there. Could he say something stupid or goofy? Tax evasion? (kind of risky ..... even if the party pays it). A golden parachute .... retirement plan? A health issue? A key seat among the U.N. ? Do you really want Hilary? Who says he is going anywhere? Sometimes I just find humor in all the talk .... Maybe someone else who isn't Hilary?

Yep, I did challenge them audi. But what you see is the usual distraction because we all know they got NOTHING What they are running on is that the Dems haven't cleaned up their mess fast enough : : They are pathetic I'm going to keep challenging them because people need to know how dangerous they are,,,they vote against their own interests...pretty scary pathological stuff

Exactly, President Obama has tried to eliminate the bush tax cuts for the most wealthy...that would have helped our deficit...but the republicans would not cooperate...because they carry water for the rich. Also the austerity cuts that the republicans are using in the states is hurting our recovery and is reducing jobs in the public sector so that the deficit can not be reduced due to more income. So it stands to reason that since the republicans like the bush tax cuts for the rich and like using austerity to try to reduce the deficit that they would not even be able to make any progress on the economy at all. In fact, using their philosophical likes we will be in lots worse shape with them in office. There will be no deficit reduction because their policies stifle growth. And it's been proven that tax cuts for the rich do not stimulate the economy. That's why the republicans have never had a successful economy.....BECAUSE THEIR POLICIES STINK...THEY DON'T WORK So come on rightys ...what have you got : : You got NOTHING that will work...you vote against your own interests and the interests of your country. Come on we're waiting...tell us how you can overcome your rigid broken philosophy to come up with something that will work for the country. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : :
