Presumably. Unless Ralph is the guy he goes bowling with.
Amazing that the MSM can’t even bother to fact check the name of a congressman. Well, maybe not that amazing.

Barney Frank, Chairman of the House Banking Commitee, is probably used to getting calls at 3 a.m.

Sounds like they were all trying to get their stories straight! Caught with their hands in the cookie jar and making up excuses so they don’t end up tattling on each other. The level of trust between them all must be awesome. /sarc

To: PhilosopherStones
Obama wants to lead by concensus. He wants to be a “team leader” and not THE leader. If he wins he will give hand held voting controllers to his cabinet and advisors. When he needs to make a decision he will call them up to vote and he will go with the majority. That way he can never be held accountable. I honestly think he is afraid to make decisions. He has no confidence in himself.

Wow, the comments after the article are chilling.I was reading those comments and thought that I must have fallen into a parallel universe! It's hard to just accept that a large number of our population is just plain stupid.

I thought he crossed party lines to work on solutions for problems. That’s what he told Steve Croft. Of course Croft never followed up and asked for one example of his having done that. Doesn’t look like he’s doing that in this situation either.
