Speaking in Texas, President Obama today continued to ramp up his political rhetoric while also explaining what is seen as a new strategy based on attacking his predecessor -- and the state's former governor -- George W. Bush.
Without naming Bush specifically, Obama said at an Austin fundraiser that he's drawing attention to the previous administration "because the other side isn't offering anything new."
"They are trotting out the exact same ideas that got us into this mess in the first place," he said. "Their big economic plan is to renew the tax cuts that helped to turn the surplus into a deficit ... and once you get past that they don't have another new idea."
Obama accused Republicans of a "fundamental lack of seriousness" in the past year and a half, only politicking while Democrats have been making tough decisions to save the nation's economy. But now, Obama said he was ready to engage in the campaign with them.
"We've got three months to go, so we figure we can politic for three months. They've forgotten I politic pretty good," he said. "I'm happy to have this debate over the next several months about what their vision of the future is, because they don't have one."

Instead of Eubonics...now we have Obonics..
When you’re backed by the Chicago machine, you “politic pretty good”. But, after 19 months of sunshine on your lies, your politics aren’t worth a damn!
You may continue to end-run the Constitution, but you WILL be undone!
What will you call it when you get an ass-whuppin in November, losing both houses of Congress?
“A normal mid-term correction”?
You heard it here first, you two-bit phoney!
And he has just the proven results to back up his brave words...not!
We just don't like the guy.
Okay, so maybe you won't give us Joe, What about Hillary?
“I politic pretty good.”
Actually he doesn’t. There are just a lot of people in this country who have been (O)bamboozled by his nonsense and evil plans. They are a bigger problem than he is.
I can’t wait for 11/2011 to see this O-hole punk get his ass kicked!
Zero Class!
Pure BS!
All he does is go around shouting lies and half truths, all based upon ‘straw man’ arguments. His arguments are intellectually vacant. The media lets him get away with it, and the GOP just ‘stands there’, seeming to not know how to respond.
I think the best way to combat 0bama is to laugh at him. Intellectually rip his arguments apart, and do it in a humorous way that the average person can understand. I believe such a tactic would also get inside of his head. I’m just SURE he totally HATES being laughed at/made fun of, and it has rarely been done. I think it would throw him off balance.
Someone should reply, “We are impressed by the work of whoever pulls your strings Mr. President”.
You can’t politik your way out of hell.
LOL. Is that why the Dem candidate for Governor, Bill White, did not meet you when you landed in Texas? Or that most Dems in Congress don't want to be seen near you? Ask the Dems in MA, NJ, and VA how effective you were?
Obama is radioactive and will become more so the closer we get to election day. He can raise money but not votes.
This current crop of Demo politicians is functionally illiterate and they can’t even speak.
It should be “I politic pretty well”. Well, well, well, well, well!
Yeah but Slick Willie always smiled while lying to us like he knew that we knew that he was lying. Bozo lies like he is serious and it is our duty to believe him. LOL
Someone wake me up when he says something new, please...
That Harvard education paid off well.
Yeah, the car driving analogy is getting threadbare. He says the Republicans drove the economy into a ditch and now want the keys back. I’d say he’s even a worse driver—he has the car in neutral and he’s always looking in the rearview mirror.

He still thinks the same old smoke and mirrors will work
