That's the MSNBC take on the Pub congress...
You might as well have turned on a recording of Rachel Maddow.
I agree that the Republican congress we've had since 2010 hasn't been a great congress, to say the least. But I don't judge them based on the volume of laws/regs that they pass. Matter of fact, for most congresses, I think doing less is better, because when they try and "fix" something, they often create a problem somewhere else.
Finally, I don't think you have to inject race into it. I don't think Republicans in congress don't like Obama because he's black. They also didn't like Clinton, and they will not like Hillary. I think they just genuinely don't agree with him on most issues, and Obama is unwilling/unable to work with congress to find common ground. I think a good president has to be a persuader, and Obama is just not that.
