Just like abortion. They really don't want to get rid of that, either. They got hundreds of millions of dollars in donations by exploiting the suckers who have yet to recognize that the GOP has long failed to act on either, even when they held both houses of Congress AND the White House for how many years.

They will block or sabotage any attempt by Obama to fix a problem, thus denying Obama a success. See the economy/jobs.

When Obama leaves office.He will be living very comfortably. Kids in college, nice home, etc.You hate him but you're not hurting him, you're hurting everyone else. They took an oath. Guess there was a loophole in it.If we don't like the sitting President, we won't do our jobs. Wow, hatred is strong.

because it' more fun and satisfying for them (and their "base&quot to complain about how everything is President Obama's fault and that he's "not doing anything" about it even though there is only so much he can do about it by himself and he's getting no help whatsoever from Congress because of Republican obstructionism of, well, everything. Hell, if they focused on trying to fix anything, then they might actually have to DO something for their (not) hard-earned paycheck and bennies. Congressional Republicans are the TRUE government "welfare queens" and "takers". They are like a bunch of lazy slackers whom don't show up for work and still expect to get paid or if they do show up, they just goof around- and still expect to get paid. Remember how upset they were when Nancy Pelosi was cracking the whip and expecting them to work longer hours and more days when she was ruthlessly cracking the whip in the House?

The last thing they want to actually do is anything which may benefit the country under a Democratic president. The sad thing is their constituents let them get away with this foolishness.

All about spending tax payers money for frivolous lawsuits towards the President, but whine about funds toward border control and helping the unemployed and foodstamps to feed the hungry.
