"Don't think we're not keeping score, brother." That's what President Barack Obama said to Rep. Peter DeFazio in a closed-door meeting of the House Democratic Caucus last week, according to the Associated Press.
A few weeks ago, Mr. DeFazio voted against the administration's stimulus bill. The comment from Mr. Obama was a presidential rebuke and part of a new, hard-nosed push by the White House to pressure Congress to adopt the president's budget. He has mobilized outside groups and enlisted forces still in place from the Obama campaign.
Senior presidential adviser Valerie Jarrett and her chief of staff, Michael Strautmanis, are in regular contact with MoveOn.Org, Americans United for Change and other liberal interest groups. Deputy Chief of Staff Jim Messina has collaborated with Americans United for Change on strategy and even ad copy. Ms. Jarrett invited leaders of the liberal interest groups to a White House social event with the president and first lady to kick off the lobbying campaign.
Its targets were initially Republicans, as team Obama ran ads depicting the GOP as the "party of no." But now the fire is being trained on Democrats worried about runaway spending.
Americans United is going after Democrats who are skeptical of Mr. Obama's plans to double the national debt in five years and nearly triple it in 10. The White House is taking aim at lawmakers in 12 states, including Democratic Sens. Kent Conrad, Ben Nelson, Mary Landrieu, Blanche Lincoln and Mark Pryor. MoveOn.Org is running ads aimed at 10 moderate Senate and House Democrats. And robocalls are urging voters in key districts to pressure their congressman to get in line.

Someone I know who claims to be a Republican and yet voted for Obama “because we needed a change” (whatever the hell that means) told me today that these CEO firings have really started to worry her. I believe she said something like, “I’m actually starting to get a little scared.”
unfortunately the answer is probably no...I guess I just am holding out on the country completely dissovling within a year or two into that level...but it’s only been what, 2 months and control of board of directors at GM and other stuff that I never ever in my wildest dreams thought was possible is just marching right along...imagine what a year- two will bring...
BO doesn’t care if they are re elected. He would have already gotten what he wants out of them. ONe day soon, he’s going to threaten and piss off the wrong person.
He shouldn’t be bullying and alienating people he needs. America isn’t all Chicago.
BTTT
You know no matter what we think of Obama and his politics, it's low and rather distasteful to malign someones deceased mother. What proof have you to back up your claim?

We have a word for things like that 'round these parts.
The link is unavailable, hmmmm....I wonder why?
We need one of those movie moments with the incantation and the drops of blood after which the statue comes to life! The statue in this case is the conservative movement, we need a leader to come forth who will call a...oh, wait, I can’t say that.
Good post. We need to find ways to put this information in front of more people. Thanks!
Great post. Mark Levin was just talking about this article on his radio show. Obama’s an authoritarian fascist, but our press won’t report it. People who think he’s a nice guy are going to be in for a rude awakening.
She should be...ANYONE who is not an ardent leftie and is loving what he’s going because they are deluded, should be very concerned about the next two years because if anything’s going to happen it will happen then because that’s just how it’s going to work...if we can get any of the dem’s who are iffy about Obama to at least slow him down some the 2010 might provide the opportunity to reshuffle the deck enough to balance things out a bit more..
This Black Preacher from Harlem gets it right....

Reviving a thread with a message that ought to be kept front and center for the next 3 1/2 years.
Thanks
I’ve saved that one, for it’s so deadly and accurately the true Chicago and mob approach from these thugs ... just posted it again today on another thread ... ;)
The game of chicken goes on ...

In fact, he has been for some time, but they never knew how big a problem he was.
