Apparently tneighbors just reads headlines rather than dig beyond it. I read most of the things you posted and it's been speculation about what repubs will do, or repubs blocking reckless spending. In the NYT article it even states that by them blocking it they were forcing the govt. to spend $19bil less and preventing $7bil+ in earmarks from being set. Do you even read what you post are do you just blindly follow what a headline says rather than actually read?

Less than 8% of subprime mortgages are attributable to CRA. This video is a bunch of lies and distortions. The CRA played a insignificant role in the crisis and the economic development and expansion that happened in poorer neighborhoods in the '80s and '90s that brought crime down would be impossible w/o CRA.

Deregulation was key to causing this crisis. Voting for politicians who favor less oversight over financial institutions makes no sense whatsoever.

If I'm lying, then what is this all about? This came out today. Furthermore, I don't have a party. Do you? I have presented you with just a small sample of examples, each of which proves you are wrong. Who's delusional? Some issues require a super-majority. And others that only require a majority might not necessarily have all of the Democratic votes.If all of the Repubs ban together to block everything, it makes it difficult to pass anything. they r just being politicians

I accidently posted from the wrong account. Replace the [DOT]'s with real dots to visit the urls.
Do a simple search on "Republicans block Obama", and you'll see plenty. Thats why he recently spoke directly to the Repubs to try to get their support. bit[DOT]ly/cKRZaO
This video is Obama taking on the entire Repub Caucus. Also, search "Outfoxed part 1" here on youtube so you can see where all the negative stuff about Obama comes from. Know your source!

1. Reps blocked O's attempt to create a bi-partisan commission to examine fed spending and look for ways to lower the deficit

2. Health Bill -requires a super-majority and will be blocked by Reps.

3. Consrvtive Supreme Court voted to remove caps on Corporate Campaign funding, thus blocking campaign reform efforts.

4. Repubs block Obamas plan on tax Loopholes. bit[DOT]ly/daIKWn

5. bit[DOT]ly/cHB23l -Another bill blocked

List goes on and on. thats why they are being called Obstructionists.

as a conservative, I absolutely loved this video. Any liberals able to refute this? What's your side of the story?
