EXCERPTS

"At the start of 2011, we’re still just emerging from a once-in-a-lifetime recession that’s taken a terrible toll on millions of families," Obama said. "We all have friends and neighbors trying to get their lives back on track."

(snip)

"In a few days, a new Congress will form, with one house controlled by Democrats, and one house controlled by Republicans – who now have a shared responsibility to move this country forward," Obama said. "And here’s what I want you to know: I’m willing to work with anyone of either party who’s got a good idea and the commitment to see it through.

"And we should all expect you to hold us accountable for our progress or our failure to deliver," he added.

The headline is wrong.

Obama-Wii=WOTUS is an upgrade from Obama-Telepromter=TOTUS.

Obama-Wii has indicated a willingness to work with others
if only America can resolve to impeach the undocumented imposter.

He is will to listen to any ideas as long as they conform to his.
This man is simply insane. No two ways around this fact. He is a arrogant SOB who will slash his own mothers throat to advance his Marxist ideas.
Any GOP member who buckles should be warned that we remembered once, and we will do so again.

Well, the Democrats almost never have any good ideas, and the Republicans have some on occasion(whom he won’t have anything to do with) so...he may as well stay on vacation and golf. Better yet, just resign and let a real man (or woman) who loves the USA and understands her Constitution, history and economics take the job. Wait, who might that be? Stay tuned.

Obama’s once-in-a-lifetime recession and two years in the hole and now he wants the republicans to clean up his mess.
The SOB can’t be trusted with anything he must be forced to act,if congress has a pair if not the next election will be something they wished that never happened.

Oh really? So, he will work with anyone from any party, huh? How about Sam Palmisano, CEO of IBM? IBM offered Obama, for free, a program that would expose almost a trillion dollars in fraud and waste in Medicare and Medicaid. The cost to taxpayers - $0.00. The answer from Obama - "no thanks"!

“And our most important task now is to keep that recovery going,” Obama said. “As president, that’s my commitment to you: to do everything I can to make sure our economy is growing, creating jobs and strengthening our middle class. That’s my resolution for the coming year.”

One only resolves to do things one hasn’t already been doing.

Obama recorded his weekly radio message before leaving for his Hawaiian vacation. I guess he did not want to interrupt his rounds of golf, eating, relaxing, and tying up the local roads with a few minutes of speaking on the radio.

He keeps blathering about how he "will not rest" until fixing something. I wonder what that translates to in practice for this slug?

“we’re still just emerging from a once-in-a-lifetime recession that’s taken a terrible toll on millions of families,” Obama said. “

Ah, yes—the regal “we”. I notice the “once in a lifetime recession” hasn’t slowed the king or queens passion for luxury vacations at great expense to the taxpayers.

Work together? Ohaha’s having a pipe dream.

The Tea Party will lacerate any Repub who even spits in Ohaha’s direction.

As my tag line says: The new definition of bipartisanship is called “former member.”

At the “health care summit” Paul Ryan said Obama liked some of his ideas.

And Ryan never heard from Obama again.

Well,that’s it then—after such a generous offer of cooperation with everyone—only EVIL RACISTS will oppose him now!

As it will be reported by the Leftist MSM.

This needs to go viral. I had not heard about it before and I bet most Americans haven’t either.

There is nothing worse and more hypocritical than "good ideas". This is another pitch to his "hope and change" language BS.

We need to stop the pimping and the gayness, period. A good idea for him always leads to state control and regulatorial "ideas", as well as getting credit for everything that goes right.

This is months after HE DENIED BEING AN IDEOLOGUE!

Hence he is still on track to keep the same going and getting Congress to get snookered again into some poisoned up bill instead of repenting, while keeping the Ksars and Fed gov retards around

It's not about dialogue, it is about orders and incapability to deal with a normal powerbalance and acceptance of right of assembly. It's about corrupting DC again.

Zero revealed his super jealous and envious and dangerous rapist thug fragged butt homo ego when he said to Kouric he thinks not of Palin as a candidate for the Presidency, instead of honoring her as a force to reckon. He went on the "I'm so much better and sophisticated" tack of liberal cop out snobbishness.

STILL BLAMING IT ON BUSH Obama said: "At the start of 2011, we’re still just emerging from a once-in-a-lifetime recession that’s taken a terrible toll on millions of families. We all have friends and neighbors trying to get their lives back on track."

REFERENCE 2/9/2010--- Obama’s Deficit Avalanche isn’t Bush’s Fault Washington Times reports: Even more staggering than the mountains of snow in the capital are the deficits the Obama administration plans for the next decade. Huge spending increases will add about $12 trillion to the national debt for budget years 2009 to 2020. The scariest part is that these deficits are based on unrealistic budgeting assumptions; the real fiscal outlook is much bleaker. In the proposed 2011 budget, the White House defensively attacks the “irresponsibility of past” deficits.

For example, the 2009 budget deficit of $1.4 trillion is blamed on the George W. Bush administration as if President Obama’s $862 billion stimulus package and more than $400 billion supplemental spending bill had nothing to do with it. Mr. Obama’s planned 2010 budget deficit rises to an even higher record level of $1.6 trillion. By comparison, all of Mr. Bush’s deficits from 2002 to 2008 – the seven years during which his team had the most control over the budget – produced a combined deficit of $2.1 trillion.

Obama has spent more in 2 years than Bush did in 7 years. Obama’s BIOB (Blame it on Bush) defense just won’t work anymore.

OBAMA'S DEBT GRAPH

We must expand the threat of political excommunication to include not only Republicans who try to “work” with Obama,but those who are in the same photo-opt with these RINOs as well.

For instance,I DARE any Republican to be seen being friendly with AK Super RINO Sen Murkowski!
