The Democratic National Committee continues to highlight The Party of No ... no plans, no ideas, no responsibility:

America is facing tough times. Our economy is in need of repair. Millions of Americans are out of work

Fortunately, President Obama has offered a plan to get our economy moving again. A responsible plan to create jobs by investing in health care, energy independence and schools.

What are the Republicans offering? Nothing. No plan and no ideas.

Now Republican Leader John Boehner says the Republicans don't have to offer a plan. That they have no responsibility to legislate. Incredible.

While President Obama continues to lead, Republicans sit on the sideline.

Congressman Boehner: That's simply leadership we can't afford.

The ad was inspired a statement from House Minority Leader Boehner, where he said that Republicans needed to:

... get the idea out of their minds that they are legislators.

Apparently this is the Republican push back against their well-earned Party of No label, although it's unclear why Boehner thinks that The Party of Irrelevancy would be an improvement.
