Why are you trying to change the subject again, mogrovejo?

No, I did not. Can you please put in bold where you did that?

We've seen the gimmick before. Pretend to submit a plan. It's much cheaper than a real plan, practically nugatory in 21st century terms, and there are no substantive promises you have to keep, since practically nothing was actually disclosed in the first place, and it has zero chance of actually passing.
Oppose the majority, and submit only plans that have a minimal, even laughable, budgetary impact. Submit fake plans only, seems to be a strategic motif.
Re: Boehner: A Better Plan for Jobs
The two statements are not incongruous. Any time the GOP actually deigns to disclose its actual ideas instead of just more fake bullshit, would be just fine with me.
Re: Boehner: A Better Plan for Jobs
The opposition can make itself an actually existing alternative to the powers that be, if it so desires. The GOP, apparently, does not so desire.

Judging by the reaction of the public, the GOP just has to say no and they get more and more votes. I believe they should do something. That is why I am glad to see tea party people taking over precints and nominating the people that want to be fiscally conservative. However with how stupidly the Dems are using their super majorities, the Repubs could not even show up for work and still get their majorities back. Plus get the WH in 3 years. I hope they make another contract style domestic issues promises but doubt they will need to.

I didn't say the statements were incongruous. I've already covered the incongruence between your theory of declaring guilty of fake outrage and deserving of acerb criticism anyone who complains about the use of politics as usual tactics by their opponents, no matter the validity of the claims, and your reiterated practice of quickly doing it yourself to criticize the GOP and conservatives.
What I want to know is where in those statements you were "talking about plans to restore fiscal and budgetary well-being"? Can you bold the exact sentences or not?

Your powers of reading seem to have failed you again. You get my sympathy, sir, but no help.
