The economy was in a free fall caused by "W", and the Republicans fought everything that Obama was doing to try to recover. There is no excuse for that. I have no problem with "W". He was a well intentioned president, who got taken to the cleaners by his closest advisors, and 9/11.

If you didn't goggle "Fox News hypocrisy", please do. Then, tell me whose hands gets caught in the cookie jar over and over. When you attack him on everything, you are bound to get some things right. When you do, blow it out of proportion, and state that his misrepresentation that you found is representative everything this president does, and will do.

Age bias? I am missing something here. I am over 65. I also stated that the youth of this country are up with the current state of Washington, and not engaged in the news. So, what is the disagreement?

Is the only disagreement that we have about The Five is the Democrat gets a say in the format? So everything else I said rings true. So, The Five is not "fair and balanced". I don't have a problem with what The Five is doing. One Democrat is better than none. I have a real problem with anyone calling Fox News (national) "fair and balanced".

Fox News leans toward the Republican party. Is there a dispute there? The liberal press calls Fox News, the mouth piece of the Republican party. That is over the top. However, Fox News calling themselves "fair and balanced" is also over the top. That statement from Fox News is a downright lie. Repeating a lie over and over doesn't turn it magically into the truth.

Who determines what the level of a scandal is? The real IRS scandal is that the IRS is not allowed to enforce the law concerning political charitable organizations 501(c)06. The law states these organizations are not allowed to preform any political actions. The IRS commissioner wants to enforce the law as written. Congress won't let him.

Concerning Hillary emails concerning Benghazi, she should have let an independent group look into her mails. Then gone over with this group what was personal and what was not. Any dispute should have gone to a neutral person. She should have seen what was coming from the fifth Benghazi congressional hearing. There is no way in hell she should have given all of her emails to Trey Gowdy. She has been running for president forever. Anything and everyone she mailed concerning her run, would have found its way to her Republican opponent. Talk about an unfair advantage, nothing like having your opponents playbook.

Maybe just maybe there is no smoking gun. You can look forever for something that isn't there, but claim that it just well hidden. We will find it even if it takes the next two presidential elections to locate it. This assumes she wins in 2016. Come on John Kasich, please announce. As I stated before, a Republican governor that accepted Medicaid under ACA will get my vote. This is a clear indication that he puts people over party.

I apologize to everyone here for getting off subject. I did discuss the subject, but not at great length.

Oh and since you have such an interest in such stuff you may find this interesting....this is from about a year ago but it fits for the entire time

"The U.S. Senate failed to advance another piece of popular bipartisan legislation late Monday, and the reason tells the real story of Washington gridlock in the current Congress. To wit, Harry Reid has essentially shut down the Senate as a place to debate and vote on policy.

The Majority Leader's strategy was once again on display as the Senate failed to get the 60 votes to move a popular energy efficiency bill co-sponsored by New Hampshire Democrat Jeanne Shaheen and Ohio Republican Rob Portman. Mr. Reid blamed the defeat on Republican partisanship. But the impasse really came down to Mr. Reid's blockade against amendments that might prove politically difficult for Democrats.
