Hitting the campaign-cash trail again today, President Obama in Austin, Texas today opened up a string of attacks against the Republicans, painting them as a party that lacks seriousness and ideas due to only looking forward to the next election.

“There has been a fundamental lack of seriousness on the other side,” Obama said to a crowd at the Four Seasons hotel in Austin, “We've spent the last 20 months governing, they have spent the last 20 months politicking."

The president – who has been out on the stump raising cash and throwing his support behind local candidates increasingly – says that well he can politick with the best of them for the next three months leading up to midterm elections. “They forgot I'm pretty good at politicking,” he quipped with a smile.

"The event for the DNC raised approximately between $750,000 $1,000,000. with over 200 local supporters purchasing tickets beginning at $5,000 per couple. The DNC will be moving $250,000 to the Texas Democratic Party as result of the event as well. The president painted the picture of a country back on the right track – but with still more work to do."

I had no idea that Texas had this many progressive democrats?

Oh yeah, just like this obvious CAMPAIGN GLOATing stunt? Misusing Public Monies and vital National Assets?

"pretty good"....NOT!

As dramatic as the graph is, it still does not take into account those that have simply given up looking.

The real rate under Obama is much higher, and they continue to try and hide that fact.

And president Obama has been VERY serious. Paul McCartney, Tony Hawk and Wanda Sykes said so.

The phrase “Obama says...” cannot be followed by any true statement.

Don’t fool yourself.
A lot of rich people are liberal.

Texas has a LOT of wealthy tort lawyers who are some of the biggest Dem contributors - they depend on the lawmakers to keep the lawsuits blossoming.

Looks like the Republicans did better playing politics than the Kenyan did governing.

What a weak message. What a whining Kenyan.

W never made excuses or complained. The Kenyan is a pussy.

“We’ve spent the last 20 months governing”

Does this mean he’s going to start taking responsibility for the current disastrous state of the Republic?
