I agree with you. The GOP is doing what it can while not allowing Obama to paint them as a villain. They have to keep in mind the fact that doing too much too fast (especally when the Senate can stall and Obama veto) is a lost cause which will end up making things worse.
Has no one learned from 2008? How did not electing McCain help us? Most of you know I despise that guy, but at least we would have had Palin as VP and our energy industry wouldn’t have been under attack.
The idea is to save the country, not score cheap political points in a suicide mission. Are things bad? Yes. Will panicking the population be productive? No. Will it help us to keep Obama in office for 4 more years? No.
This is going to be a 2-year war of attrition with the dems. We are going to have to push for a concession here, a roll-back there. Until we can grab the Senate and hopefully unseat Obama this is what the House has to do.
Steyn is looking at this from the “if I had a magic wand” point of view. Fine, but Boehner doesn’t have one, and whatever the House does, the Senate is bent right now on stopping.
