Think about it this way. Obama is more worried about Rush Limabaugh / Glen Beck (a radio talk show host) than the Republican party. The Republican party is not the opposition that you think. They cave every time. They are Democrat lite.
Percisely why he went on the rant about the RINO’s vs. those running that are doin it because they feel like us and Rush that this is it, we fix it or loose our liberty.
