Let me get this straight, the Republicans only hold one house of the Congress, and do not control the Presidency, but it is their fault?

You really need a civics lesson.

The spineless Pubbies controlling only one house of Congress does not prevent them from at least PROPOSING what they Promised.

They are not getting hit for not winning. They’re getting hit for not putting forward the numbers that they promised.

Now do you understand the point?
