President Obama – Newtown and Boston Tragedies Unable to Change The GOP

As reported by The Hill, President Obama expressed a great deal of frustration at a fundraiser in Boston yesterday.

“Sometimes people ask me, ‘Man, how do you stay optimistic because it just seems like a bunch of problems piling up on your desk, and it doesn’t seem like you’re getting a lot of help from the other side?’”

And the president expressed concerns that some of the most tragic events in recent history were unable to end the partisanship in Washington.

“We would have hoped that coming out of those two tragedies that we would see a new spirit in Congress of people pulling together, and rolling up sleeves, and working on the things a broad spectrum of Americans agree on, but that’s not what we got,” Obama said. “Instead, we got more obstruction and more resistance to getting anything done, most recently culminating in a shutdown that was entirely unnecessary.”

I'm just tired of the lies and nonsense coming from the GOP, so this is my little contribution to combat the nonsense!
