The Do-Nothing Party

From The Hill:

House Republican leaders, having dispensed with the debt limit and put immigration reform on the back burner, will return to their political comfort zone with a legislative agenda focused on attacking the Obama administration and government excess.

So no reauthorizing unemployment benefits. No funding of infrastructure projects or other legislation that would create jobs. No tackling of income inequality or climate change or any of the other problems America faces.

Because that’s why we elected them. To bitch and moan and do nothing to actually help Americans. Because that might, you know, make Obama look good. And they can’t have that.
