Congressional Republicans Militantly Threaten To Do Nothing!

Can you poison a well that is dry? Congressional Republicans accuse President Obama of "poisoning the well" because he has (finally) decided to do something unilaterally about the nation's immigration mess.

What are these angry folks going to do about it? It sounds like they plan to do what they have been mostly doing since Obama was first elected, and certainly all they have done since his re-election 2 years ago, obstruct anything Mr. Obama tries to do and, other than that, do a whole lot of nothing!

Since they don't like what the President is doing to try to clean up the immigration mess, why don't they try passing some legislation for a change? I find it hard to believe that the American public will continue to re-elect them to keep doing nothing and blaming the President for it! They don't have Congressional Democrats to blame anymore, since Republicans control both houses.

Here's hoping that I'm wrong, and Congressional Republicans have a big portfolio of legislation ready to introduce as soon as the new session begins. But I'm not holding my breath.

Crossword

Mom was a farm wife. When they coined the term ‘hard working’, she was who they had in mind. But the last couple years of her life she spent mostly in an easy chair in front of the T.V. Congestive heart failure robbed her of the strength to walk.

The daily crossword puzzle in the newspaper was always a favorite activity. Not even her failing heart could keep her from it. The last time I saw Mom, before she passed, she was sitting in her chair, seemingly half asleep, ignoring the T.V. Unexpectedly, she sprung into action, grabbing a pen from a nearby table and folded newspaper from somewhere in the easy chair. She wrote a word on the puzzle and returned pen and paper to their places just as quickly! That’s the way with crossword puzzles, you have to write that word when it pops into your head!
