Obama Continues to Blame Republicans for Blocking "Progress"

I just read where President Obama, in his weekly radio address, continues to whine about Republicans blocking progress. Ummmm...last I saw, the Democrats were in control of the White House, Senate and House of Representatives. Not only are they in control, but they have substantial majorities in both the House and Senate. How is it possible that the Republicans are the ones blocking progress?

Ah, yes, because they stand united in opposition to Obama's agenda, just like the majority of voters!

Funny thing the Democrats are pointing to a Gallup poll out that shows Americans are in favor of more spending and stimulus to create jobs and boost the economy. Notice how that question was phrased...it assumes that the economy will improve and jobs will be created if only the government spent more money.

Have a look at this quote... (“We have tried spending money,” FDR Treasury Secretary Henry Morgenthau Jr. said in 1939. “We are spending more than we have ever spent before and it does not work. ... I say after eight years of this administration we have just as much unemployment as when we started. … And an enormous debt to boot!”)

Last I saw, we've spent over $1 trillion in stimulus, bailouts, and in the TARP, yet we have an unemployment rate near 10%, and this is the longest it has remained this high since the 1930's. It was only World War II that saved our economy back then. What will save us now?
