An actual quote from todays remarks: There are some in Congress right now who would rather see their opponents lose than see America win. To which Steve Hayes, irked by the sight of yet another straw man being torched, replies, Who are they? The answer, I can only assume, is congressional progressives: Theyre the ones who refuse to budge on the ruinous Medicare spending thats rocketing the country towards fiscal collapse, as doing so would forfeit their partys big campaign issue next year.
But in case The Ones referring to tea-party congressmen (as he surely is), what was amazing about the dont raise the ceiling crowd during the debt debate is that they were prepared to absorb a ferocious backlash against their own party in the name of doing something significant, i.e. Cut Cap and Balance, to solve Americas debt crisis. Time and again they were told that the GOP would bear the brunt of public anger if we didnt make a deal, but they preferred that outcome to a weak compromise because at least thered be important reform as a result. I know Democrats cherish their belief that the right acts only out of personal pique, not principle its all part of the delegitimization game but the caucus really was trying to put country first in that debate. Their means and ends simply differ from Obamas; the fact that The One interprets that the way he does says more about him than it does about them, but Democrats have been begging him to be bolder, especially in attacking the tea party, so presumably theyll be happy today.

If only once he would take a short break from being 24/7-Stupid.
FUBO (and the horse you rode in on!)
Country over collective and country over community organization. DEFUND socialist collectives, foreign and domestic.
YEAH, WHY DON’T YOU?
Your preacher doesn’t! He damn’s America
So do you! Every time you open your yap, you sickening, pathetic little worm.
It's time for a Pres**ent to put Country over a failed ideology.
I saw some of this tripe.
It was the most classic and transparent case of projection I have ever seen.
Alinsky would have been so proud.
The Tea Party didn’t put the Country over the Party. They voted with the Republicans to give up their constitutional mandate on the budget. Of course this isn’t what Obama was referring to and the fact that the Tea Party Freshmen gave Obama more than even he thought was possible doesn’t matter to him or the press. They will rag the Tea Party no matter which way they vote. When oh when will these clowns figure that out. They must have the IQ of a gnat not to know this.
Now these Freshmen will be facing primary challenges from others who will undoubtedly make the same promises this group did. These below par Freshmen deserve it too. They did put Party first. They voted with their poor excuse for a leader Boehner and gave away the farm. They had an historical moment given to them and they simply blew it. The sooner they are replaced with other Tea Partiers the better.
Wow, this guy is really delusional. I have written before that I think that Zero has some severe mental problems. I think he is starting to come apart!
Why don’t we all get together with a bunch of friends and a video camera.
Have one person read a stupid Obama statement and everyone laugh hysterically. Read another repeat.
Post a few thousand to You Tube as “America reacts to Obama on...XXX (whatever subject)”
Narcissists cannot tolerate mockery.So lets mock everything he says.
Perhaps you should in the mirror, Obama.
The she-male has never had an original thought...
