I am really beginning to wonder about the republican leadership. Do they EVEN have a plan. Obama sits there and blames the republicans for everything that is not passed, but Harry Reid and Senate have not even brought a budget to floor for a vote, except for Obama's proposed budget which got 0 votes. How the media continues to let Harry Reid get away with games, while at the same time he accuses Boehner of being a dictator.
