Same goes for GDP - (R)s grow it 3.6 times faster then (D)s

+174% when the Republican control both houses
+017% when the Democrats control one or both houses.

For some weird reason, I can’t concentrate on what he is saying. After a few minutes I zone out and it is just a bunch of words strung together.

Take heart: it's not you. I sat through the whole d*mn thing and it WAS just a bunch of words searching desperately for an idea.

“Mr. RANDOLPH was for the term of 7 years. The democratic licentiousness of the State Legislatures proved the necessity of a firm Senate. The object of this 2d. branch is to controul the democratic branch of the Natl. Legislature. If it be not a firm body, the other branch being more numerous, and coming immediately from the people, will overwhelm it. The Senate of Maryland constituted on like principles had been scarcely able to stem the popular torrent. No mischief can be apprehended, as the concurrence of the other branch, and in some measure, of the Executive, will in all cases be necessary. A firmness & independence may be the more necessary also in this branch, as it ought to guard the Constitution agst. encroachments of the Executive who will be apt to form combinations with the demagogues of the popular branch. “ Tuesday June 12, 1787 - The Madison Debates

Chris Matthews: “He has a very coherent plan here. He’s going to insist that Congress give his budget and up or down vote. He’s going to jam this through.”

Bill Bennett saying Obama did not have a good night. Said Obama was angry at times. That he lied etc. Slammed him hard. Ed Henry (cnn reporter) saying he agrees with Bennett.
