Editor’s Note: In other words, the most important goal for Mitch McConnell and the Republican Party is to BLOCK bills NOT do what is best and right for the country. This is nothing less than TRAITOROUS!

Bills Republicans blocked, or attempted to block, since Obama became President:

Tax on Companies that ship jobs overseas--A bill that would have eliminated a tax break that companies get when they ship jobs overseas. Republicans blocked this, allowing companies to keep the tax break they receive when they ship jobs to other countries.

Subpoena Power for the Committee investigating the BP Oil Spill--Give subpoena power to the independent committee responsible for investigating BP’s roll in the oil spill. Republicans attempted to block this.

The Small Business Jobs Act--would give LOCAL, community banks access to billions of dollars to loan to small businesses. Republicans blocked this, then attempted to block it a second time and failed.

The DREAM Act--Gives immigrant youth who were brought here as children a path to citizenship by earning a college degree or serving the military for 2 years. Republicans blocked this.

Repeal of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell”--Would have repealed the law that forces gay and lesbian services members to lie about their sexuality and gives the military the right to discharge soldiers based on their sexuality. Republicans blocked this many times and Democrats were finally able to pass it with the support of just 2 Republicans.

The single most important thing we want to
 achieve is for President Obama to be a 
one-term president.
