I have rarely been so disappointed in an address by a public official. Sir, you sounded clownish as you firmly held to the Tea Party line. The American people WANT COMPROMISE. We do want tax increases on the wealthy. Tea Party polls are the only ones that will show otherwise.
It has been apparent for months now to any thinking person that the congressional Republicans only want to embarrass the president, not to solve any problems.
How is that patriotic? How is that in anyone's interest?
Making the president look bad, and causing him to lose the next election will not give your party any better ideas to fix the problems that were largely caused by your party.
Instead of trying to get out of blame do something worthwhile. Come with some ideas that don't make it harder for the poor and easier for the rich.
Rush Limbaugh doesn't have the answers; he makes $100,000,000+ a year making some Americans afraid of other Americans. His interest is not America's interest.
The Tea Party may have gotten many of your colleagues into office, but they have no useful ideas.
All I ever hear from your party is a dogma of Don't Tax The Rich (Oops) Job Creators, or They Won't Create Jobs. You know what? They have low taxes, and aren't creating jobs.
So I'd like to thank you for reaffirming my suspicion that your party doesn't care about the country. If there was no Fox "News" you'd have no media speaking for you at all.
In my lifetime I have not voted for one Republican. It used to just be because of the unwillingness to disavow the Religious right. This Tea Party/Limbaugh foolishness is just making it worse.
Lincoln and Ike must surely be saddened.
