So shouldn't the GOP be cheering the fact that people are having trouble signing up for their own government enslavement sentences?

called the tea party. All this over website problems? Where did these fools come from? Also makes me feel a little (very little) sorry for the moderate republicans. They have to be quite embarrassed.

But, he wants another $429 MILLION DOLLAR TAX REFUND for it, first!

This is why the Tea Party hates the Democrats . . they're so anti-business!!

Huge mistakes were made on 911 but blame was not suppose to be discussed by order of the right. Many sad and unfortunate events have happened way worse than Benghazi but those are over looked because they happened under a republican presidency. I'm so sick of the bullying!

One reason I have so much respect for Dennis Kucinich is that early on he saw Iraq for just what it was. Back in 2008, Kucinich even tried to get Bush 2 impeached for his war crimes. Remember that?

So here's where I am confused. When Obama took over in 2009, he had the whole Senate and House behind him, along with the majority of the country.

Why didn't Obama investigate the Iraq war crimes?

Please be careful how you answer that one, because whatever excuse you give for Obama can also be used as an excuse for the GOP's inaction.

and give them more ammunition to use in the PR war. Why are Dems so bad at this? We should be better able to win the PR war since truth since we are trying to get people enrolled in health insurance while they have not done anything useful in the last few decades.
