Note that the GOP works for most of 3 weeks in July, then is off for all of August and most of September, October, November and December. After they return from the August summer break, they will have 27 days in session remaining in this year.
I have little doubt they plan to waste the remaining time with political play acting, sniping at the President, and getting face time on TV. They have NO intention of doing anything positive for our country or for all of the problems we face, but to blame every problem on President Obama, the "liberal Democrats" and the "takers", and appearing "concerned" on Meet The Press.
The republicans in our congress are the scum of the earth, Not a damn one of them is worthy of any respect at all.
