Joe Crowley: “I salute President Obama for continually extending his hand in cooperation and negotiation to work with Congress.”

I do think that a $2 trillion or $2.5 trillion or whatever that number is going to be, it is going to be transformative, tremendously transformative.

It's so obnoxious, so obscene to see him actually pushing the Justice Department to go after his political enemies.

I think the American people, they are looking for transformation in government. And this is a transformative time.

I think it`s bad for Democrats writ large. It`s bad for the president in not being able to move his agenda, when both the House and the Senate are controlled by Democrats.
