Mitch McConnell is as insincere and duplicitous as they come. When Obama reached out to the Republicans, the Republicans shut him down. So, Obama is moving ahead to pass the agenda of change, which is what the American people want. McConnell doesn't like that:
A leading congressional Republican did not pull any punches Sunday when asked whether President Obama had kept one of his most prominent campaign promises.Seems like Obama is governing from where the American people want him to be. His approval rating is a lot higher than the Republicans in Congress.
“I must say I'm disappointed,” Senate Minority Mitch McConnell of Kentucky said Sunday on CNN’s State of the Union. “After two months, the president has not governed in the middle as I had hoped he would. But it's not too late. He's only been in office a couple of months. Still before him are the opportunities to deal with us on a truly bipartisan basis,” the Republican told CNN Chief National Correspondent John King.
Keep in mind, in 2006, there were 55 Republicans Senators. Now, there are 41. The Republicans have lost 25% of their membership. That's because they're out-of-touch and have had nothing to offer the American people.
