Stuck In The Middle With You

  Once again, President Obama failed to get his spending bill through the Senate. Now Senate Majority Leader, Harry Reid says,  he will bring another piece of the bill to the Senate on a weekly basis, to see if the Republicans,  will continue to vote no on each piece of  President Obama's spending bill. As I see it, the President hopes to place the Republicans both in the House and the Senate, in an impossible catch twenty two situation. Here is what I mean, if the Republicans in ether the House Or senate go along with the Democrats on any part of the President's jobs bill that includes any sort of a new tax, then,  President Obama can say, the Republicans especially,those in the House broke their promise of no new taxes. That promise, was the key reason,  Republicans gained control of the house in 2010. This puts a lot, of pressure on Speaker Of The House John Boehner. If speaker Boehner keeps his promise then the Republicans will continue to be seen as,  the party of no, and President Obama, can still harp on the do nothing Congress.
  This whole situation reminds me, of that old song by Stealers Wheel Stuck In The Middle With You. I would however,  say it this way, the Senate led by, Harry Reid to the left of me, the House Republicans  led by John Boehner on the right,  here we are,  the American people, Mr. President,  stuck in the middle with you!
  The President is hoping,  Americans will grow impatient with House Republicans and in the name of getting something done, the President hopes,  many Americans,  will choose to reelect him so that he can keep fighting the good  fight against the do nothing Congress. The sad truth is,  the the President's plan may just work. The only way it won't is if Americans remember,  the purpose of  the Tea Party and the reason they voted for the republicans to gain control of the House in the first place. As Always, my friends, these words remain, just some words, to think on.
