The public may have liked the president’s big speech, but the GOP isn’t worried. Insiders say they’re raring for a fight, and that they think Obama’s in a very vulnerable position.
...
“I feel sorry for him sometimes,” confided a senior Republican House member about President Obama. “He invited us over to the White House to explain to us how the stimulus plan is working, and how the budget is going to work, and he spoke to us a couple of times. He doesn’t act like he knows what’s going on with the economy. He’s so afraid of confrontation, when you challenge him, he backs off, like he doesn’t know the right answer. Who does? That’s why you kinda feel sorry for him. Not his guys, they don’t act like they know. Do they notice the stock market sinking? Who doesn’t? There’s this sense of disarray. The administration is made up of a lot of Number twos. The only one with any gravitas is [David] Axelrod. Geithner? He looks like he’s 12-years-old, or a grad student. The president is like a perfect vice president. That’s what the big speech was like. A vice president was talking.”

Er...lifted MY spirits!
If he’s weak, he’s not showing it much.
LOL! LOVE the remarks on Obama, Geithner and the rest of this gang! Classic!
It’s a cruel world isn’t it?
Moi thinks the GOI has a long way to go before challenging anybody.
And the next few yrs in the wilderness could actually do it some good. Esp as they will see the Dems making blunder upon blunder in a dangerous world.
Someone once said “First rate people surround themselves with first rate people. Second rate people surround themselves with third rate people.” or something like that....
“The public may have liked the president’s big speech, but the GOP isn’t worried. Insiders say they’re raring for a fight”
Hope they don’t plan to use pillows or wet towels as usual.
I knew I smelled something coming from FUBO
I'll drink to that!
He needs to be sent a virtual $ so he can buy a virtual clue.
Did like his decision on Iraq though. Better than expected.
Pray for America, Our Troops and obama
Classic passive-aggressive behavior. Wait until you see what he does behind your back.
President Pelosi sees it.
Actually, Geithnew looks like a 12-year-old boy masterbating in his room right after his mom walks in.
I DON’T FEEL SORRY FOR HIM ONE DAMN MINUTE!!!!!!
(I’m not yelling at you, just angry in general).
Not a fair trade. Wish Pelosi would go crawl back under the surgical table where she was created in California.
A fools greatest enemy is his mouth.
Barrack never shuts up.
FUBO is somewhat clueless. But the people in the backgrounds around are deadly and they know exactly what they are doing.
