Sitting around carping about irrelevancies hasn't been a notable contribution so far. Maybe you and your worthless caucus should waste a day reading selections from the Constitution again?

where are they? You've got the house now but you are worried about abortion, sama sex marriage, Obamacare, fair taxation. Where are the jobs plan? When Bush was ending his term we were losing 750,000 jobs per month, now we are gaining 250,000 per month.

That is a one million job swing in the right direction. We've had job growth for 23 straight months. Bush only created 1 million jobs in eight years.
