Here you go America, here's what you voted for: GOP-led combat and all-out war

Notice what's important to Mitch McConnell, extending the Bush tax cuts to the wealthy, repealing health care and defeating Obama. 1, 2 and 3.

Notice what's not in there: JOBS. The jobs you said you wanted will apparently not be a part of the Republican plan in the House. They're going to spend 2 years trying to defeat the President.

Now, whether or not you like Obama is irrelevant, because in order to defeat them, the economy HAS to stay bad. If it improves, the president will likely be re-elected. So it has to stay bad. How does the GOP help to ensure Obama is kicked out on a tidal wave of anger over a lack of jobs? Simple, don't introduce legislation designed to improve the economic climate. Focus on tax breaks for the rich. Start endless investigations (if you think you've heard the last of birtherism, you're nuts).

Here you go America. You're about to get the government you deserve.

Not the government that cut the deficit by $120 billion. Not the government that gave tax breaks to 95% of the population. Not the government that saved the economy with the same policies you voted against.

You're going to get a government that doesn't want the economy to improve, so that Mitch McConnell can get his number one goal: defeating the president. Here's to hoping your job loss or foreclosure isn't one more step to McConnell's goal, because you're not even in his top 3.
