Now get out of the way and stop interferring. And if they continue on this pace they deserve a week vacation for every two worked. Dems should stay in DC and work in defiance.

"This pace"? The Republicans haven't done diddley yet, except two failed bills, and three resolutions - THREE - attacking women's current Constitutional health rights!

LOL!

Apparently the Republicans most important, major, immediate focus isn't jobs, isn't the economy, wasn't even the budget - it's to take away women's Constitutional rights by a big government takeover and intrusion.

Yeah, these guys are really the "small government" types.

Boehner doesn't even know how his own caucus is voting, and they apparently can't count. They didn't go over things with the caucus. They need to get it together, and fast.

The Tea Party is going to kill the GOP if they are not careful. Sticking to a particular dollar figure (the Tea Party refusal of the rest of the GOP budget in the private caucus) out of sheer stubborn demagoguery is silly.

Trying to take that huge dollar figure out of only 14-17% of our budget, attacking only the most necessary and helpful services (education, EPA, etc) while completely ignoring budget cuts in defense and entitlements is naive.

That type of thing may make you personally happy, but I doubt it will fly with the rest of America as they lose those services. We'll see.
