GOP Majority Fumbles


GOP Majority Fumbles

Republican Majorities Struggle To Get Congress Working. Los Angeles Times: "Only two bills have become law - one a leftover from last year that funds a terrorism insurance program important to real estate developers, the other a noncontroversial measure to address mental health problems among veterans. That compares with six new laws at this point in 2007, when Democrats came to power in both chambers for the final two years of President George W. Bush's tenure. The new Republican majority, said one lawmaker granted anonymity to speak openly about their work, is like the dog that caught the car - still figuring out what to do next."

Meanwhile Obama's job approval is 10 points higher, and growing, than Bush The Impaler at the same point of their Presidency. The media will keep a tight lid on that also.
