@icyrebel never before have we had a legislative branch so unwilling to work together on anything. as for Obama's :expensive" programs. the president has o power to enact programs. that is the legislative branch. if i might suggest do some real research instead of just believing what pablum the biased media is feeding you with the story of the day. kep an ope mind and study where the problem's lie. it isn't with the president. at least not now. our financial issues stem directly from the legislative branch allowing us to fall over the debt ceiling cliff. and everything that is happening was predicted when that occurred.
