Obama to Blue Dogs, "'YOU'RE GOING TO DESTROY MY PRESIDENCY"
National Journal/The Lid ^ | 7/22/09 | The Lid

Posted on 07/22/2009 9:21:45 AM PDT by Shellybenoit

The other day, the President bashed Senator DeMint for making the Obamacare battle personal:

one Republican senator said — and I'm quoting him now — "If we are able to stop Obama on this, it will be his Waterloo. It will break him."Think about that. This is not about me. This is not about politics. It is a health care system that is breaking America's families.

Many of the Democratic/liberal groups like MoveOn and the DNC are using the DeMint statement for fund raising.

Here's the little secret the Democrats don't want you to know, The President Agrees with DeMint. In a meeting with Blue Dogs last week he complained, 'You're going to destroy my presidency. "

If by The Grace Of God we can keep this monstrosity from being voted on until August, we must haunt these Blue Dogs day and night during their summer break!

Obama is ruining it all by himself. He should thank the blue dogs for stopping him.

Thanks, dervish. I’m adding this info to my list. Any other Blue Dog contact info you have would be greatly appeciated.

Excellent job!! I certainly hope that all Freepers will vigorously work to send all of the Reps an email.
I will be working on my list the evening. Thanks again for the great work. Keep it up — we must destroy this legislation and ruin this so called President's attempt to socialize America.

Back in the 1970’s, someone (I don’t remember who) drew a cartoon of Nixon at “Waterloogate.” I couldn’t find the cartoon...but I’m sure someone will run with the idea...

I picked one and called (today) and spoke at length with passion to a patient staffer.

I hate those e-forms--they want constituents, and won't look at any opinion outside the district.

Last week I called three Democrats--and only one hung up on me when I wouldn't be argued with.

I'm probably helping to ruin Obama's meteoric rise to historical transcendence.

But then, I'm helping his spectacular Icarus-like descent from hubris to oblivion.

Jim Cooper of Tennessee claims to be a blue dog also, but his record screams LIBERAL!

Same for Pelosi's boy toy and Murtha's protoge, the detestable Patrick Murphy (PA).

I've called my Congressman so many times now the office people that answer the phone now call me by name before I say a word...
