They think they're "fighting for jobs"

[Guns Guns Guns]

At a closed House Republican Conference meeting earlier this month, Rep. Judy Biggert of Illinois suggested that party leaders buy television ad time to get the message across that Republicans are fighting for jobs.


Many of her colleagues seem to agree, particularly on the jobs issue.


“I think the Republicans do need to do a better job,” Sen. Dick Lugar of Indiana said. “It’s not really clear that either party has been very successful in meeting what is clearly the No. 1 issue that the public expresses.”


Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions expressed frustration that the public is “not hearing what the Republicans are offering.”

We’re trying to show some flexibility and good faith so that voters will see that we’re not being intransigent but that we’re trying to offer good ideas and come up with solutions,” said Texas Sen. John Cornyn, referring to his party’s openness to raising revenues to cut the debt.

But that doesn’t sit well with other conservatives, such as Oklahoma Sen. Jim Inhofe, who warned Tuesday that Republicans risk “giving up what [we] stand for” if they compromise on revenues.

“I think it’s a bad idea,” he said.


Hmmm.... "giving up what we stand for" by passing legislation that would put people back to work is a bad thing for the Teabaggers. The only job they are fighting for is their own and for the profits of the 1%. To hell with the rest of us.

intransigent |inˈtransijənt; -zi-|
adjective
unwilling or refusing to change one's views or to agree about something

intransigent-perfect term to describe the 1% Teabaggers.

Exactly. That's why the failed Tea Party Caucus has done nothing but block any meaningful attempts to put Americans back to work.

The voters will remember in November.
