President Obama urged compromise Monday as he pushed congressional Republicans to reach an agreement to avoid big spending cuts due to take effect at the end of the week.

"There are always going to be some areas where we have genuine disagreement ... but there are more areas where we can do a lot more cooperating than we have seen in the past couple years," Obama told a meeting of the National Governors Association at the White House.

"At some point, we've got to do some governing. And, certainly, we can't keep careening from manufactured crisis to manufactured crisis." . . .

At some point, we've got to do some governing? Is he serious? Does he not understand what his paycheck is for?

Being President is a full time "do some governing" job. Yet Obama looks at it as something to avoid. Reluctantly every nine months or so, Obama find himself in a position where he actually has to do something. This could possibly be one of those times.

Worst leader ever.

I think Obama has a great idea there. He and Biden should resign and let intelligent people do the governing.

BS, he’ll NEVER be seen as governing, because then he’d have to take responsibility for his decisions,

and it’s antithetical to his personal belief system to do so.

He’ll have to stay off the gold course and quit partying across the USA to “do some governing”.

He is accountable after all...

Who’s “we” dip$hit??

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Majestic_plural

The royal “we”

A common example is the royal “we” (pluralis maiestatis), which is a nosism employed by a person of high office, such as a monarch, earl, or pope. It is also used in certain formal contexts by bishops and university rectors. William Longchamp is credited with its introduction to England in the late 12th century, following the practice of the papal chancery.[3] Its first recorded use was in 1169[citation needed] when King Henry II, hard pressed by his barons over the Investiture Controversy, assumed the common theory of “divine right of kings,” that the monarch acted conjointly with the deity. Hence, he used “we” as “God and I...,” or so the legend goes. (See Rolls Series, 2.12)[not specific enough to verify]

Good! Stop paying people not to work, and give us our frigging money back!

Share the WORK and the wealth will automatically share itself. It's time to start governing!

No! No! The less that sumbitch does, the better off we are! Everytime he actually does something, we suffer for it.Manufactured crisis he says? He is pushing his gun control crap over one. Oh, thats right, it has to be a crisis that he manufactured.:)

I feel a lot safer when he’s out golfing.

It’s worth the exorbitant costs just to keep him away from the levers of power.
