Do you think that Republicans did everything they could to hurt Obama and US, so's they'd get elected?

1. There was no real recovery. All the Republicans showed was how crazy
they are. The damage of course, was extending those tax cuts further in the first place. Add in the tea party and you had suicide economics.

2. Letting All the Tax Cuts Expire Would Have Tanked the Economy Earlier
…as everybody's taxes jumped back up to 1990's rates, and we still would have had the same fight over the debt limit.

Raising taxes only on $250K+ WAS tried, and failed due to the invincible Repiglickin filibuster.

4. Yet the MSM barely blames them
as if it didn't happen..

The Teabaggers are the ones that will continue to destroy...just wait....the end of this year they will try to do as much damage as they can. Next year will be even worse...

5. Big element of Fascism, Control the Media and Pump the Propaganda
remember what we learned from history of the 20th Century,

Right Wing
Super Wealthy Funded
Corporation
Controlled
Media
Propaganda Pumping, Organized & Repitious
w/ Scapegoating
& Union Busting
=Fascist Regime

or maybe it's time to learn, that and
those ignorant of history and what it teaches
are bound to repeat it

6. You are absolutely correct
Don't forget tha 2% of the population owns a greater portion of the wealth in this country and that feeds into all of this.

We are living in dangerous times. I hope people do not make the same mistake as they did in 2010...
