Obama: "Nanny-nanny-boo-boo, I won and you didn't"
Modern Conservative ^ | Christopher Cook

Obama is laying the groundwork now for upcoming war against conservative speech. He is also an arrogant quasi-fascist . . . and, apparently, something of a child in a man's body.

NY Post: Obama: Quit Listening to Rush Limbaugh if You Want to Get Things Done

WASHINGTON -- President Obama warned Republicans on Capitol Hill today that they need to quit listening to radio king Rush Limbaugh if they want to get along with Democrats and the new administration. (Emphasis added)

.....

While discussing the stimulus package with top lawmakers in the White House's Roosevelt Room, President Obama shot down a critic with a simple message.

"I won," he said, according to aides who were briefed on the meeting. "I will trump you on that."

The response was to the objection by Rep. Eric Cantor (R-Va.) to the president's proposal to increase benefits for low-income workers who don't owe federal income taxes. (Emphasis added)  . . . read on

Every time we have an election, a small subset of the base of the losing side claims that fascism is imminent, that there's going to be a coup and he won't turn over power to a successor, etc. etc. It always sounds overwrought and conspiratorial.

I am not saying that all of that is going to happen. But the movement around Obama is a very fascist-style movment, and he himself has some of the hallmarks of a leader of that kind.

And then, when you add in the fact that . . .

Arrogance and possible megalomania in combination with a thin-skin and, apparently, a rather childish persona . . . this could turn out to be a very dangerous combination. Especially when you add it to the crazed quasi-fascist movement and thugs in his thrall.

I hope no one is surprised. This is a man who was raised almost entirely by women.

Remember “I HEAR YOUR VOICES”?

The rest of his point, that he did not add however, was this...

...now shut up and obey my one party republic.

Ot Else!

Two party rule is now Un-American, just ask Tom Hanks.

Well, he did win and (to some extent) has a right to use that fact to pursue his agenda. On the other hand, he made much of his ability to “reach across the aisle” and get things done. At the time, I thought this was so much happy-crap, due to his actual & very thin record. Now that he’s in power, we’ll see what he really does vs. the hype. Especially since his majority is such he doesn’t actually need bipartisan consensus.

The back-and-forth between Barack Hussein Obama and Rush Limbaugh is going to be very interesting and entertaining indeed! BHO (with the support of the democrat party) will attempt to shut down Conservative speech. This process could take a long time, however, and I wonder how POTUS will use SCOTUS to his nefarious ends.

Barry is a Communist not a 'Fascist', nor a Nazi.
His *heroes* are Marx, Engels, Lenin and Stalin. Not Mussolini - the Original 'Fascist', or Hitler.

(to be a Nazi Barry would have to believe in 'Nationalism'. And since he HATES the USA, that cancel;s that)

I think back to when Pres. Bush said he would not gloat over the 2002 election results, but we all were either begging for him to do that or just hoping he would govern as the winner. Now we see what an ass sounds like when it gloats.

Were any pictures taken during this event?

I am wondering if Bama gave the Republicans his famous international one finger ‘salute’, like he did the queen Hillary and lord McCain.???

What is not being talked about openly in public, on the airwaves, etc., is that we here in the US, are experiencing the net effect of unchecked greed, the dumbing down of future generations, and the almost complete absence of enforcing self-accountability.

So, what else could we expect to hear / see come from the sheeple?

The proper response to this pretend tyrant would have been:

“I won my election too Mr. President and I intend to represent my constituents as it is my duty. If those ideas I represent run contrary to your proposals then it is my obligation to oppose you until my last breath. If you have a problem take it up with the Constitution because Constitutional speaking you are not a emperor, just the head of one Branch out of three. Good day, and good luck in your willingness to murder the unborn plus undermining liberty that made this Country great.”

I haven’t listened to Limbaugh in years. No problem with him, just hasn’t been convenient. But now, thanks to the unmitigated arrogance of the el presidente, I will find a way to start checking in on Rush on a regular basis.

You never heard George Bush whining about Air America, Randy Rhodes, Al Franken, or any of the left-wing nut jobs out there on the radio. GWB was bigger than that; he was confident in himself, no matter what other said about him. Barack Obama is not. Obama is quite evidently insecure. That's why Obama focused on Rush; he feels threatened by him. That's why we can expect Obama to overreact in trying to deal with criticism or points of view he doesn’t like. That's why Obama will feel justified in using any means to silence critics.
