Reid: Senate GOP wants Obama to fail By: Alex Isenstadt March 3, 2009 02:53 PM EST
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid put it in no uncertain terms today: Senate Republicans want Barack Obama to fail.
“It’s very clear they’ve made a decision they want President Obama to fail,” Reid told reporters, listing of a series of Obama proposals Republicans have lined up against, including the $410 billion omnibus spending package before the Senate this week.
When asked to name specific Senate Republicans who wanted Obama to fail, Reid would only say a “number of Republicans.”
“It’s very clear,” Reid said. “Some have said so, others have acted accordingly.”

Good point!
You make a good point. I, too, share the idea that today’s GOP is hardly a conservative enclave. I do, however, believe they can become that, again.
If not the GOP, then conservatives need to find a new home...the Constitution Party, maybe?
The Libertarians? I must admit I’m attracted to their economic policies, and the principled stand on individual freedom. Can’t say I care for some of their views relative to foreign policy, but I’m willing to talk about it.
The AIP? Keyes comes off a tinfoil hat kind of guy, sometimes. But, again, there are some things to like...
Sadly, it seems that far too many otherwise intelligent conservatives get absolutely caught up at the abortion debate, and have made that the single most important litmus test issue against which to measure ALL conservatives.
It is, though, time to take back the country, IMO.
Note to Reid, all of us in the GOP want Obama;s policies to fail because you see they are anti-American and we want our country to survive you idiots.
Seems like it’s working toward that end...
And, not a moment too soon, IMO. There needs to be a grand clearing house of conservative thought and ACTION.
FR is an ideal starting point.
It’s time to take back the country.
Look kid (Reid), take your marbles and go home to mama!
With the exception of three alleged Republicans named Specter, Collins and Snowe I think that Reid may finally be catching on to the truth.
Reid: REPUBLICANS in Nevada wants you to STFU and lose in 2010.
