Do-Nothing GOP Congress Admits to Being American Taliban (VIDEO)







"Despite finger-pointing news conferences and radio addresses by both parties on Capitol Hill, Congress let interest rates double last week on federally subsidized student loans. Eleven days earlier, a coalition of Democrats and conservative Republicans in the House scuttled the latest attempt at a farm bill, dooming for now disaster assistance for livestock producers still affected by last year's drought."*

Congress has returned with important legislation on the table, including an immigration bill. Will they make any meaningful change? Very doubtful. This obstructionist Republican congress has passed a record-breaking low numbers of bills; will Democrats wise up to the fact that the "American Taliban" is going out of their way to block? Cenk Uygur breaks it down.
