Do Nothing Congress?

How about a do-nothing president.

So Obama says he's wants a jobs bill passed.

And he wants the payroll tax cut extended.

And the House of Representatives passes a jobs bill that also extends the payroll tax cut and Obama threatens to veto it.

Oh, I see.  It doesn't include a tax increase on those evil wealthy Americans.  The ones who have caused all our country's problems.

How convenient they are to his blame game.

- - -

To be fair, I should include an explanation for Obama's threat to veto the jobs bill.  He has his reason:

President Obama has threatened a veto of any bill with the Keystone XL in it so as to not lose the coveted Daryl Hannah endorsement.

There you have it.

Personally, I wouldn't mind a do nothing BOTH.

The bureaucracy will keep any necessary check coming and the operations going. Congress and the President can take a long vacation....say........50 years or so.
