I dont think it matters how many bills that Congress has passed. I think that it is the quality of the bills that have been passed that matters more. I think that too often, bills get passed that are not well written or thought out. Just because they get a lot of them passed does not mean they are doing a good job.
Im a conservative, and I have to say, the less bills that are passed, the better (for the most part). The difference between Democrats and Republicans is that Democrats think America is great because of the government, and Republicans think America is great despite the government.

I don't think you know what you are talking about/! Perhaps you can enlighten us as you make accusations with no proof, and a party that tries to stop them at every turn!
They have been in office 4 months! The Republicans were in office 12 years and they did nothing but take away our rights under the constitution and give cry-baby Bush, blank checks.
If I were a Republican. I would not throw stones! You did absolutely nothing except pass out 3 1/2 Trillion in Corporate Welfare!

If I had a 30% approval rating at work, I'd be fired. If I was associated with corrupt individuals, I would be fired. If I used misinformation to achieve my own agenda, I'd be fired. If I spent billions of my company's dollars and ended up helping my competitors, I'd be fired. If I did things that were supported by a majority of the population (trying to leave Iraq, trying to approve funding for stem-cell research, raising the minimum wage), I'd be given a promotion.

The House has passed all the bills it promised during the campaign. The Senate is slower to pass legislation and the Republicans have much more opportunity to obstruct legislation there because they hold the majority by only one vote.

So whats your excuse for a 28% approval rating for your wonderful Republican president? Should HE be fired because he's doing so poorly?

Well it's not really a question of how many bills they pass, it's more of how many the president vetos. wouldn't you say.
