Presented as a curiosity. Don't bother reading the article. It just calls for Obama to stand up to the GOP.

But many Comments were interesting. I was rather surprised by some of the hatred (and I mean hatred) expressed for Obama there.

That was what they were screaming about when we passed the RTW law in Michigan. I simply reminded them that Obama didn’t pick up a single Michigan seat in the Michigan legislature.

Let us not forget....... John Andrew Boehner was also elected. He determines what is to be spent.

The president spends as directed

Leftists are morons like Bill Maher complaining about the senate not getting anything done because of gerrymandering.

Do you have a link that goes to the article you are referring to, instead of one on global warming?

I doubt sincerely whether bonehead makes the determination on what is spent. He does what he's told to do, that's pretty clear.

“Won” may be a problematic choice of words, here.

I’m surprised how much hatred exists toward Obama on the looney left. If you can stand to take a trip to a fringe left site like DU, you will almost as much animosity toward Obama as you do here (for totally different reasons of course). The far left feels that Obama has been too moderate and is little more than a corporate stooge for the “big Wall Street bankers”.

Sorry about the link problem. When I went back to the original article, it still came up with that wrong link.

Either Salon is messed up on more levels than I previously thought, or my computer is plotting against me again.

Now that's really scary.

Well, I'll never understand the "moderate" part, but if they ever figured out he's a stooge for Lord Soros and his ilk, maybe they'd get somewhere.

“Mr. President, you won the election, not them!”

Here I thought this was about his grifter family members!
Most rational folks have had waay to much of Moochelle and Zero’s demon spawn.
