When the White House announced that President Obama would hold a "Twitter Town Hall" in July by answering questions posed through the social media site, Republicans in Washington jumped at the opportunity, inundating the platform with questions, snarky comments and calls for action. The president answered a series of questions, not all of them total softballs, including one from Republican House Speaker John Boehner, who posted dozens of questions for Obama on his page.

Obama chuckled, and called Boehner's question "slightly skewed."

The only thing WAY skewed is you Numbnuts because we are way screwed!

ah yes- the criminal liberal media once again showing their true colors...when was the last time the criminal liberal media referred to any of the condescending comments that come from the child that presently occupies the WH or one of his servants as "snarky"??? its always "Obozo mocks the GOP" or "WH rails against Republicans"....

Poor Obama and his inability to take criticism.

The “crash” in the headline should be translated “dare to participate”.

“He also launched a sharp attack against Republicans after a question about the debt ceiling, saying the GOP is using the issue as ‘a gun against the heads of the American people.’ “

Ah, yes. All that tough rhetoric about how we need to embrace a new civility, to eliminate any graphic imagery. Remember this quote when talking to your favorite peace-loving liberal.

The US Chamber of Commerce must be frustrated by 0’s failure to grant amnesty by executive fiat to illegal aliens, the increasingly disgruntled slaves of their member companies.
They must figure if Zero can wage war without congressional ratification, then he can simply declare 20-30 million resident criminals to be US citizens (and automatic Democrats: former president Clinton recently stated that convicted felons were mostly Democrats, so it must be true) and then they can assist Mexico with mounting another series of invasion waves composed of more docile and pliable “undocumented immigrants” to take the places of the criminal democrats who will then be able to “come out from the shadows.” As it now they are only able to admit their status and wave Mexican flags in national newspapers and on television, so that only a handful of people are aware of their legal status.

including one from Republican House Speaker John Boehner, who posted dozens of questions for Obama on his page.

I wonder if it was Boehner in the first place.

This administration tells us that asking relevant questions is somehow racist or political or we just don't deserve to know.

This from an administration that is the most political, underhanded, race-baiting, secretive...I'll stop here.

From what I heard, had it not been for the ‘republicans’ , there would have hardly been any ‘participation’ at all.
