Someone (may even have been you, Parthenon?) made the point in another thread that Republican’s seem to have difficulty stringing issues together, seeing the connections. They see some don’t have health insurance, they see that people get sick, they see that that some people lose their houses. But they don’t see the connection that inadequate health care leads to the sickness that drained the bank accounts that mean the mortgages don’t get paid (so nobody lives in the house that Jack built).

But my point here is that THAT is how to respond to McConnell et al. They there IS cohesion. That they can’t see it. And that that is their failing. Don’t fall down to their intellectual level and incorrectly claim that their complaint is simply they’re saying “too many ideas”.

“I guess when you have no new ideas, anything more than zero must seem overwhelming. But, if the Republican party thinks that attacking new ideas is a winning answer, they’re more out of touch than we all thought. Now is a time when we could use all the good ideas we can get — and we invite the Republican party to offer some new ones rather than playing the same old Washington games. They can start by putting out their own budget proposal.”

But any third grade class can come up with lots of ideas for things. Doesn’t mean the submarine that also flies, a force field that can make you look like anyone, etc are practical.

I give you what all good Republicans want– right joaquin?—to have everyone subjugated unless of course it is personal–i.e.—involves them and their families.

When Republicans get an idea–then they can call Obama’s ideas bad ones.
But I don’t think that will be happening any time soon. . . . .

Not our fault if you can’t keep up.
