If its such a good bill then why block it?
The single most important thing we want to achieve is for President Obama to be a one-term president. - Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, quoted in the National Journal, November 4, 2010

Jobs bills don't guarantee jobs, they just try to make the environment more hospitable for demand to be created, otherwise the government would just hire them directly to dig a hole and fill it back up. Government cannot "Create" jobs.
100% wrong in this case.

Seeing as how the jobs were gonna be park rangers, cops, firefighters; yeah actually the govt CAN create jobs.


It's partisan bullshit and you know it. You're not an idiot like Clayton

Yep, and they refused to grant a waiver or work around it at all.

This was blocked by the GOP for the sole intent of blocking progress, nothing new there.

What is new?
Us vets get the message from congressional GOP and Mitt. In 6 weeks they will get our message.
fuckin A they will

So, basically the reason the GOP does anything and everything is to ruin Obama's chance at re-election? You actually think that republicans would actually prefer a nation be destroyed than to have a Democrat as president? ..oh wait, I forgot, they are all racists? It must be that Barack is black, and well, all republicans(and by design everyone who isn't a liberal) are just racists. You can tell Mitch is racist, just look at that quote, by god there wouldn't be a more damning thing to prove that they are all racists since Mitch Mcconnell speaks for all republicans because all republicans come from the same racist mold. Only liberals are different.

Does that about sum up your views on that then?

Seriously, I can't remember a presidential nominee so damned blind to us. Not 1 mention of vets or the 2 wars in his convention speech, his bullshit about the 47%, and now this. All are complete slap in the face to veterans.

GOP has always taken vet votes for granted, I think that ship has now sailed.

That isn't job creation.

If I hire someone but cannot afford to pay them anything, did I really create a job?

Government has to borrow at interest every penny they pay that Park Ranger. Either that, or they have to tax the citizens more to pay for that park ranger.

How often have you been to a national park and lamented that there weren't enough rangers?

I know a lot of vets and active duty who plan to vote Dem but would normally identify with Republican tenets.

false, unless said park ranger spends his paycheck in China.

So if Obama is re-elected do you think the republicans will stop trying to destroy the USA? Or do you think they will continue just to spite the POTUS? We can blame all bad things on republicans right? And blame all good things on liberals?

The final act of a desperate candidate will be, God, guns and gays. The Southern Strategy isn't working. The War on Women backfired. Blocking the vote is being challenged in court. They have no minority support. What's left? Fanaticism. They are going to double down on The Three Holy G's of the GOP. That is my prediction.

It's going to get even uglier, folks. Clutch those pearls.

This isn't just about park rangers, you failed to mention law enforcement and firefighters.

Oh wait, that's right cops, teachers and jakes are why the country is hurting right?

So instead of paying those vets for a service (job) you'd rather they collect unemployment and get no service back for our $?

So anyone who isn't a democrat or a liberal belongs to the Swiss? Cuz there is more than 2 flavors of political views in the USA.
Oh look! How sweet! ND is trying to build another strawman argument. I missed that. ::batting eyelashes::

No, silly. You follow the Gingrich plan and hire underprivileged school children to do those jobs. A little five alarm fire never hurt anyone.
