Senate Republicans playing games with our lives

By GottaLaff

Via TPM:

The senate Republicans are refusing to give a vote to two of President Obama's key (hopefully soon to be) economic advisors -- Austan Goolsbee and Cecilia Rouse. So for the moment they're barred from advising the president at all. The Republicans seem pretty candid about the fact that this is pay back for stuff that happened back in the Bush era. But aren't we in the throes of a catastrophic economic crisis?

These are the politicians who the Rushpublics trust to represent them? They just proved they don't care one iota about their country or the people who voted for them.

They don't care that Americans are in dire straits, starving, without health care, losing their homes, feeling the world crashing down around them.

All they care about is political game-playing.

They belong in the dumpster along with their abysmal poll numbers.
