Actually Will I find it funny that Obama thought he could get the Senate to pass Obama's agenda and even the Senate can't support his agenda. So much for Obama bypassing the House and forcing the House to accept his Senate bill. Now it looks like no one supports him. HAHAHA!!

To think I am surprised by a P2008WSC comment. The depth of misunderstanding among the right is mesmerizing. The Senate for all intents and purposes is to the left of Obama. The WH has made HUGE concessions in order to gain Republican support, including furthering the 2001 and 2003 tax cuts for large amounts of Americans, and agreeing to spending cuts, INCLUDING ENTITLEMENTS! But the Republicans want more, always more - more tax cuts, more cuts. They still cling to their absurd loophole closings and base broadening. So, in effect, the Senate finds the WH plan too right leaning.

And then they came for Fox News
Obama, drones and U.S. citizens: Don't feel bad...cuz 1 out of 4 ain't bad
Watch what Obama does, not what he says
Bienvenida to journalism, Gov. Corbett!
