Compare and Contrast!

Cheers and Jeers this morning (over at DailyNaziStalinistMarxistLibtardAmericaHatingKos DailyKos):

From the GREAT STATE OF MAINE…

Contrast

What the Democratic-controlled House under Speaker Nancy Pelosi is responsible for:

• Health insurance reform: Initial bill had public option, before Senate stripped it out; Kids can stay on parents' insurance 'til age 26; Closes Medicare "Doughnut Hole"; Eliminates pre-existing conditions; Expands coverage to tens of millions
• Repeal of Don't Ask, Don’t Tell
• Ethics reform
• Lily Ledbetter Fair Pay Act
• American Clean Energy and Security Act
• Extension of Childrens Health Insurance Program
• Raising the minimum wage
• Food Safety Enhancement Act
• Credit Card Accountability Responsibility and Disclosure Act
• Small Business Jobs Act
• The Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act
• Injecting resources into the economy to prevent the Bush recession from sliding into a second Great Depression, saving/creating millions of jobs in the process
• Dodd-Frank financial regulation reform
• James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act
• Helping America maintain a sterling AAA credit rating
• Working long hours for long stretches doing the people's business during a very difficult time

What the Republican-controlled House under Speaker John Boehner is responsible for so far:

• Voting to repeal the "Job-Killing Health Care Law Act." (The repeal would have little, if any, effect on jobs but would add to the deficit, says the CBO.)
• Attempting to dismantle Medicare by voting to pass a budget that turns it into a coupon program
• Voting for unnecessary anti-abortion bills and...more unnecessary anti-abortion bills!
• Panicking world financial markets by holding the debt ceiling hostage; causing S&P to downgrade the U.S. credit rating by convincing them that the "party of fiscal discipline" wouldn't think twice about defaulting on our debts
• Naming some Post Offices
• Holding the FAA---and tens of thousands of jobs---hostage for the sake of weakening unions
• Refusing to consider an extension of the payroll tax cut
• A breezy, leisurely work pace with lots and lots of days off during a very difficult time
• A promise to create "Jobs, Jobs, Jobs" during election season, but ignoring job creation completely once elected

So, uh, this is what it means to "take our country back," huh? Awesome.
