RE :”The House passed numerous such bills that are carried around in Harry Reid’s pocket

Yes, they passed a number of symbolic bills that went no place; but what did they actually accomplish into law besides lowering their approval rating?

They passed the Deficit Reduction Debt limit deal that :

1) Gave Obama the $3T he needed to get to the election without another fight
2) Gave away their OWN power to negotiate #1 for the next 20 months until the next congress and Obama election is over.
3) Delayed any spending cuts until after the (Obama) election
4) Passed a bill they crafted with Obama and Reid IN SECRET and forced a vote on it after in private rounding up enough in both Parties including Pelosi, without the review that they promised every bill, much like Obama-care was passed.
5) Put in Automatic spending cuts that dont take place till the NEXT CONGRESS, some of which they are already saying they want to restore.
6) Let the Bush tax rates expire at the same time as #5.
