President Obama: GOP Opposition to Stimulus 'Helped to Create the Tea-Baggers'
ABC ^ | 5/4/10 | Jake Tapper

Posted on 05/04/2010 2:10:47 PM PDT by pissant

Three days after he decried the lack of civility in American politics, President Obama is quoted in a new book about his presidency referring to the Tea Party movement using a derogatory term with sexual connotations.

In Jonathan Alter’s “The Promise: President Obama, Year One,” President Obama is quoted in an November 30, 2009, interview saying that the unanimous vote of House Republicans vote against the stimulus bills “set the tenor for the whole year ... That helped to create the tea-baggers and empowered that whole wing of the Republican Party to where it now controls the agenda for the Republicans.”

Thank you for your restraint. This is, after all, a family friendly forum.

Poor Obama. He’s just jealous that more Americans think “the tea baggers” represent their views (47%) better than Obama (44%). What a pervert. Stop projecting your sexual preferences onto tea partiers Obozo.

Rick Santelli of CNBC might be insulted, because it was he who was the first one to call for the Tea Pary (in Chicago, February 22, 2009) against Obama's mortgage bailout plan, and he is probably not of the GOP persuasion [just my opinion].

Remember when Reagan wouldn't even spend time in the Oval Office without his jacket on? We are likely to never again have another US president who brings honor to the office.

Obama is just like all leftists - crass, vulgar, limited in vocabulary & self-control.

No sexual innuendo intended.

Or so the Germans would have us believe.

problem is this sort of condescending talk toward his political enemies has been his MO for years yet the cowards in charge of the GOP never call him out on it....he always calls for a change in tone in DC- I’m still waiting for one GOPer with half the nutz to stand up and tell him it starts at the top....waiting a long time now....

I just wrote the WH and let them know what the term meant and that I would appreciate it if he tone down the vulgar language when referring to fellow citizens.

He is less Presidential than Clinton or Carter were. Maybe even Andrew Jackson.

Do you think he will get his picture on the three dollar bill?
