the bill?
Because they were good ideas? They weren't any secret

Yes, they were good ideas, but the Republicans (and wackos esp.) are
claiming they were locked out of the process. Apparently not.


You apparently have selective memory.

You should also take a look at Mr. Roff's previous posts and his current
affiliation. He's got an agenda, which isn't exactly balanced. Not saying
the article was inaccurate, but there's clearly a theme to his writing.

Can the White House prove that they're not doing anything wrong? - proving a
negative?
The Tea Party is bringing average citizens into elective politics. - right,
sure.
The midterms are a referendum on Barack Obama's first two years in the White
House. - more of a referendum on Congress in general.
John Boehner is a reformer? WHAT??
The existence of the Tea Party is a culture clash to the former
counter-culture activists on the left. - yeah, a bunch of well-off, angry
white guys.
For Obama to get his administration back on track to 2012 he needs to make
some changes in the cabinet. - sure... fire people who can get stuff
done...that makes sense.
The Tea Party movement tells women don't need the help of government. They
need it to get out of their way. - Fine. Stop blocking women's health
legislation would be a good start.
