Well, it's been almost 4 months since the election, and Obama has been waiting for Congress with nothing to show for it. The window for CIR will only stay open for so long and as I've posted before, everything that needs to be debated, discussed and drafted has been done.
Really, there aren't any NEW ideas anywhere. Every single item being proposed by either Democrat or Republican has already been drafted. Ideas from 2001, 2005,2006, 2007 - type the fucking bill and put it up for a vote.
