GOP bungles their own job-killing bill

Lemme give you an idea of what a bunch of useless fartpipes congressional Republicans have become...

The House GOP has been touting a bill that would gut the President's power to enforce regulations on businesses. They call it a "jobs bill" even though regulations often create jobs. So this bill would actually be a job killer - like everything else the Republicans do.

The gist of the bill was to freeze regulations until unemployment eased to 6% or lower. But the GOP clown car that drafted the bill accidentally referred to an employment rate of 6%, not an unemployment rate of 6%. So the bill as it was written was actually pushing for 94% unemployment (which is probably what we'll end up with if Tea Party idiocy is allowed to continue).

When the error was exposed, House Republicans approved a rule that would have fixed it. But then they made another moronic mistake: This rule refers to the bill in question as House Resolution 783 - when it's actually House Resolution 738. There's no such thing as House Resolution 783.

Today, the GOP-ruled House passed an apparently corrected version of the bill. But it's still going nowhere, because the Senate won't approve it, and President Obama would have just vetoed it anyway. It's nifty how that "checks and balances" thing works.
