ATLANTA (AP) -- President Barack Obama says Republican leaders haven't come up with "a single, solitary new idea" to help the American people recover from the economic recession.

Speaking at a Democratic fundraiser, Obama said Republicans are simply hoping the public will forget that their policies are the same ones that led the country into the recession.

” leftest are insane”

“A social scientist who understands human nature will not dismiss the vital roles of free choice, voluntary cooperation and moral integrity – as liberals do,” he says. “A political leader who understands human nature will not ignore individual differences in talent, drive, personal appeal and work ethic, and then try to impose economic and social equality on the population – as liberals do. And a legislator who understands human nature will not create an environment of rules which over-regulates and over-taxes the nation’s citizens, corrupts their character and reduces them to wards of the state – as liberals do.”

Dr Lyle Rossiter

Exactly. The GOP needs to drop the hammer and say enough is enough of being the nicey, nicey polite politician. When things are going wrong, state it in no uncertain terms. Enough of this crap like “In response to my good friend from XXXXX”.

Here’s a new GOP idea Barry. How about you invite Sarah Palin to the White House, then bend over your desk so that she can give you a good swift kick in the a$$.

When a guy is right, he’s right.

The GOP leaders have no ideas at all, new OR old.

GOP voters have plenty of ideas, but the leaders are working full-time to shut ‘em down.

The only thing the RATs have going for them this Fall is that they get to run against Republicans.

and impose taxes on those who do not pay, so they will actually be a vested American.

It’s the patriotic thing to do....

Hey, we could call it "Univeral National Service." (I hear some of the Rats like that sort of thing).

The new GOP leaders need to come forward with their ideas. Obama and the Progressives have no clue on economics never mind how to get out of this financial crisis which they have created (but blamed Bush and the Republicans).

America doesn't need new ideas.

We have a written Constitution that provides our guidance.

If you look at our largest problems you will find the root cause is because the Constitution was ignored or perverted by greedy socialists and simpletons that weasel into public offices and bureaucracies.

Zero's “new” ideas are bankrupting the country, so we'll take that as a compliment.

The 0bama regime has banned the repubicans and blamed Bush. Who else are they going to blame? The media have not only hyped but backed this false blaming with an Alinsky edge.

No you see it wrong.
Obama is just stating that half of the population (GOP) is Moron, since it is individual ideas and entrepreneurship that make the economy tick.
