Republican Priority
Mitch McConnell, Senate minority leader, has repeatedly said that the Republican priority is to defeat Obama in 2012:
Not jobs or the economy - defeat Obama. And the easiest way to do that is to have the Republican Congress filibuster every bill the President tries to pass to help help the economy or the American people.
Fed up with trying to get any cooperation from the Republicans, President Obama enacted Executive Orders to help 1.6 million students repay their loans, 1 million homeowners meet their mortgage payments, and 8,000 veterans find jobs.
