Mr. President, call Congress back in session.
Call them back and insist that they get to business on solutions. If you do that, I will get behind building a fire under their butts. I daresay that we all will. Call them in their inaction. Get them out of the campaign mode and demand action. Do not put your ace on the table before someone else has asked for a card. You may not write the laws, but you can advocate for the people.

1. Agreed.
Tell them to get their butts back in there and write a jobs bill.

2. I agree, I said when they left
call them back for the foreseeable future, make them stay on the floor until they fix everything. If they leave, they lose their vote.

7. Sadly I don't think it is in him
he should have come out and recalled congress and declared a national emergency. That is the way most places react to crap like this, after the mandatory finger pointing. I have no idea why, but I don't think this is in him.

6. Obama runs from fights.
I doubt he has what it takes for a confrontation and the Repubs know it.
