7. exactly, Biden seemed to be concerned about the problems for Americans, and Boner made it all about
him and his fantastic performance on the links! Whoop-dee-frik'n-doo!!!

I called the jerk congressman who beat Grayson, and told his office I expected him to produce jobs with Obama. I hope everyone else calls their congress-critter. I know Obama wants to compromise (sometimes way too much) but these GOPers don't care about the suffering of the unemployed and underemployed which total 1 in 6 people and would rather seem him lose regardless of how much America burns to the ground. So, we all gotta get on 'em. I think if everyone called, they'd get scared about getting voted out.

9. I am so with you
Biden tries to be serious and all Boner has to talk about is his damn golf game. Wake up America. The Republican party only cares about me, me me. They could care less about everyone else in America.
Millions to spend and the only important thing on his mind is golf. OMG, give me a friggin break. Of course, his party will make any/all attempts to stop this from passing and allowing America to prosper. It's quite sickening. (I think I just swallowed my own puke.)

10. I like the way you worded it "expect him to produce jobs with Obama" --
I've got one of the good ones and I always call regardless just to weigh in, but from now on I'll use your "expect him to" -- love it!

6. Wasn't really a "chat", more of a Boehner "lets talk about ME" ramble.
Did this occur when he was home meeting with his constituents?

8. Biden was just humoring him of course. Boehner is on a totally different planet than Biden.

11. did you notice Biden trying to steer the conversation
toward work..."we have a heck of a lot of work here" Boner cuts him off with his gold drivel.

12. Yep.. and all Boehner just talks about himself... He obviously
enjoys the country club life more than work life... Maybe he should retire and join the PGA.

14. never mind the golf chat... what's more disturbing is how they cater to the elite
with their votes on policies that fuck over people in their own country just to enrich a minority of megalomaniacs who are destroying this country and its people from within. Hell, their speeches are worse than this.
