obama blames Congress for the reason his health care bill is going down in flames:

But the president insisted "I didn't make a bunch of deals… I am happy to own up to the fact that I have not changed Congress and how it operates the way I would have liked."

The only reason to listen to anything obama says is to determine what his next step will be to try and defeat it, and to document the lies coming out of his mouth.

“I don’t want to look back on my time here and say to myself all I was interested in was nurturing my own popularity.”

OMG, I swear this man surely must have multiple personalities! I don’t know whether to LAUGH or SPIT!

“Translation:
My goal is to destroy American within 4 years.”

I was thinking the same thing. He feels no need to please anyone but whomever is going to be covering his tracks once he leaves. He will stop at nothing now to push his agenda because it is clear that he will not be a two-termer, no matter if he ‘embraces’ it or not. It seems he could care less about the people in his own party, which suits me just fine! He will do whatever Congress allows him to do and has no reason to restrain himself. He will be worse than Carter, when all is said and down. That just my two cents worth.

“”I’d rather be a really good one-term president than a mediocre two-term president,” “

Translation: “My goal is to destroy the economy of the United States, and with it, the middle class. I can do this in one term”

Will he settle for being the most despised communist-muslim to ever contaminate the White House?

Sounds like a “really good one-term president” might be a bit of an oxymoron. If you’re really good, aren’t you almost always a two-term president?

His idea of really good one-term president would be shoving as much socialism down the throats of Americans that he can.....I think that’s his goal, and he knows full well there won’t be a second term. People aren’t going to “drink the juice” twice.

Does he deserve an F? After all, he’s still sending drones to kill the Taliban and has finally approved more troops to Afghanistan.

I sense that the war in Afghanistan is adrift. Yes, there are drone strikes in Pakistan against Al Qaeda targets, but the US was doing that before Obama. The war is on auto-pilot while Obama looks for the exits.

Well I agree with him in part. I’d like him to be a one termer as well. But he’s not fooling anyone, he wants to be emporer for life!

If you think that's crazy, check this out from Politico: Barry: Obama said "big difference" between '10 and '94 is me

...................."Rep. Marion Berry's parting shot, published in the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette [no link, subscription only] offers a warning to moderate Democrats and border state moderates — warning of a midterm bloodbath comparable to the 54-seat D-to-R swing in 1994.

But the jaw-dropper is Berry's claim that President Obama personally dismissed any comparison between Democrats now and under Bill Clinton 16 years ago — by saying his personal popularity would bail everybody out".........................

[Money quote according to Berry is]

................."The president himself, when that was brought up in one group, said, ‘Well, the big difference here and in ’94 was you’ve got me.’ ".................

If the pubbies don’t get their act together and nominate someone worth voting for this time around, Zero will be a mediocre TWO-TERM President.

If you’re really good, bambi, you get two terms. There are only bad one term Presidents, so be careful what you wish for.

However, this can be taken as good news. The Rats can’t make him their dictator if he doesn’t want to be in office forever.

You know, there is a tendency in Washington to believe our job description, of elected officials, is to get reelected. That’s not our job description,” Obama said. “Our job description is to solve problems and to help people.”

No, your job description is to be objective and maintain a hands off approach except in matters of defending the people from domestic force (via the police), foreign aggression (via the military), and settling disuptes (via the courts).

MAYBE IF YOU RETARDED IDIOTS DID THAT, THINGS MIGHT GO BETTER AND YOU’LL HAVE YOUR GOOD TWO TERM PRESIDENCIES!
