Gridlock

It is pretty well established that the national press has a liberal bias but recently a perfect example of this bias has come to the forefront. For the past five plus years we have been told that the gridlock in Washington was caused by the Republican Congress. During this last election it was revealed that the do nothing congress had passed 372 bills and they all sat on Harry Reeds desk or in committee because he did not bring them to the floor of the senate. The reason being, that these bill might cause some embarrassment for President Obama if they passed. Many of the bills were in senate committees where they died so Reed did get them that far. 55 of these bills were introduced in the house by Democrats. Most of these bills will be brought up in the new congress and since the senate is now controlled by the Republicans they will be brought to the senate floor and sent on to the White House.
