Obama, metaphors in hand, lashes out at Republicans

Obama told a Democratic fundraising event in New York late Thursday that despite one of the busiest and most accomplished legislative sessions in recent memory, he witnessed "our friends on the other side of the aisle fall all over themselves to argue otherwise."

"You would have thought at a time of historic crisis that Republican leaders would have been more willing to help us find a way out of this mess -- particularly since they created the mess," Obama said.

"After they drove the car into the ditch, made it as difficult as possible for us to pull it back, now they want the keys back," said Obama, who also pointed to the 1.3-trillion-deficit he said he inherited from his predecessor, George W. Bush.

I know I shouldn't care what gets said at a partisan fundraiser but this guy is such a clown, it's impossible not to get a little annoyed.  Hey, dumbass... you're in charge now!  Do something besides blame the other guy.  Do your damn job.

Hi,

Sad to say but I think the guy is brilliantly implementing HIS PERSONAL COMMUNIST AGENDA.  They do not stop, the drum beat continues, while many of us throw our hands up in despair unable to stop it.  I have got to the point where I take a day off from the news because normally I am a pissed off, angry person that I DO NOT LIKE.  I have reason to suspect that is the strategy, beat the opposition into submission.

As it gets closer to election time all of us, plus the tea party movement better get very, very reenergized and fight like we have never fought before. 

As an aside, while I was typing this my wife turned on Fox News.  In the first two minutes I have heard her exclaim, "Are you kidding me!" and  "That's terrible!" and she has now walked into my office to tell me why she is upset.  Seems todays flavor of aggravation makes sense, just another outrageours act on the part of our communist leader.

regards,

Obama daily reminds me of an expression I learned very early in my Navy career:

"LEADERS fix problems, loser assholes fix blame."

1. Bush took 8 years to leave you what you racked-up in 1 year.

2. If the GOP is so incompetent why do you want their hel?

3. What ideas from the GOP would you be willing to accept, faker?

4. Don't you run both houses of congress?
