So you have faith in Boehner and Cantor? I think Obama will get much of what he directs with the collusion of the Republican leadership. Until the Republican caucus removes Boehner as Speaker, I will not have confidence in them. Boehner can pass almost anything with Democrat votes and a few reach across the aisle Republicans.

I have no faith in any politician from any party. I have faith in the power of logic and arithmetic. Obama has been soending money at unprecedented levels, and more money isn't there to spend. The only way to get it is print it now. If Obama raises the minimum wage for Federal contractors to $10.10, it doesn't do much good if the price of a Happy Meal rises to $10.
