Join me as we watch Obama explain his EPIC CAVE.
He should be locked up as the rabid dog that he is!
Ooooh, Obama says he’s itching for a fight with republicans on a whole bunch of issues.
Too bad he doesn’t have that fire in his belly against America’s enemies.
“if you are between weeks 26 and 98 you just got an extension of 13 months from where you are right now.”
NO, someone at 98 they get one more week. 99 weeks is still the max, no matter when you reach that.
You’re right, he looks awful.
But hey, got a Hawaiian vacay comin’ up! Moochelle is going to be happy!!!
Narcissistic whinger.
It's not about what's good for the country at all. Its all about him and his precious image.
He’s obviously using straightener now.
Trying to look more white?
WTF is the relationship between getting Korea trade done vs this tax bill?
The Left is all wee weed up today.
Frantically looked around for the NPR reporter to ask a “change of subject” question.
NPR obliged him. Set up!
To Obama: If this is true, so tell me again WHY, with Dem majorities in the House & Senate, you couldn't get what you wanted on this ..... and long before now?
I decided to watch online. he sure has a nice suit
Unbelievable!
Still defining “the enemy.”
A reporter asked that question earlier. Obama ducked and ran.
I wonder if today the idiots who voted for this moron are finally getting it. Look at this guy, talking about how we have to get the economy on the right track..where has this buffoon been for the last two years..oh now I remember, he was too busy getting his socialist health care passed and bowing to our enemies
All right. I admit it.
I don’t know what I am talking about regarding this subject.

A LAWYER WITH A BRIEFCASE CAN STEAL MORE THAN A THOUSAND MEN WITH GUNS.
This is very interesting! I never thought about it this way.
The Lawyers’ Party
by Bruce Walker
The Democratic Party has become the Lawyers Party.
Barack Obama is a lawyer. Michelle Obama is a lawyer.
Hillary Clinton is a lawyer. Bill Clinton is a lawyer.
John Edwards is a lawyer. Elizabeth Edwards is a lawyer.
Every Democrat nominee since 1984 went to law school (although Gore did not graduate).
Every Democrat vice presidential nominee since 1976, except for Lloyd Bentsen, went to law school.
Look at leaders of the Democrat Party in Congress:
Harry Reid is a lawyer. Nancy Pelosi is a lawyer.
The Republican Party is mostly different.
President Bush is a businessman.
Vice President Cheney is a businessman.
The leaders of the Republican Revolution:
Newt Gingrich was a history professor.
Tom Delay was an exterminator.
Dick Armey was an economist.
House Minority Leader Boehner was a plastic’s manufacturer.
The former Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist is a heart surgeon.
Who was the last Republican president who was a lawyer?
Gerald Ford, who left office 31 years ago and who barely won the Republican nomination as a sitting President, running against Ronald Reagan in 1976.
The Republican Party is made up of real people doing real work, who are often the targets of lawyers. The Democrat Party is made up of lawyers. Democrats mock and scorn men who create wealth, like Bush and Cheney, or who heal the sick, like Frist, or who immerse themselves in history, like Gingrich.
The Lawyers Party sees these sorts of people, who provide goods and services that people want, as the enemies of America. And, so we have seen the procession of official enemies, in the eyes of the Lawyers Party (and their media), grow.
Against whom do Hillary and Obama rail? Pharmaceutical companies, oil companies, hospitals, manufacturers, fast food restaurant chains, large retail businesses, bankers, and anyone producing anything of value in and for our nation.
This is the natural consequence of viewing everything through the eyes of lawyers. Lawyers solve problems by successfully representing their clients, against those whom produce and the American people.
Lawyers seek to have new laws passed, they seek to win lawsuits, they press appellate courts to overturn precedent, and lawyers always parse language to favor their side.
Confined to the narrow practice of law, that is fine. But it is an awful way to govern a great nation. When politicians as lawyers begin to view some Americans as clients and other Americans as opposing parties, then the role of the legal system in our life becomes all-consuming. Some Americans become adverse parties of our very government. We are not all litigants in some vast social class-action suit. We are citizens of a republic that promises us a great deal of freedom from laws, from courts, and from lawyers.
Today, we are drowning in laws; we are contorted by judicial decisions; we are driven to distraction by omnipresent lawyers in all parts of our once private lives. America has a place for laws and lawyers, but that place is modest and reasonable, not vast and unchecked. When the most important decision for our next president is whom he will appoint to the Supreme Court, the role of lawyers and the law in America is too big. When House Democrats sue America in order to hamstring our efforts to learn what our enemies are planning to do to us, then the role of litigation in America has become crushing.
We cannot expect the Lawyers Party to provide real change, real reform or real hope in America. Most Americans know that a republic in which every major government action must be blessed by nine unelected judges is not what Washington intended in 1789. Most Americans grasp that we cannot fight a war when ACLU lawsuits snap at the heels of our defenders. Most Americans intuit that more lawyers and judges will not restore declining moral values or spark the spirit of enterprise in our economy.
Perhaps Americans will understand that change cannot be brought to our nation by those lawyers who already largely dictate the American society and business. Perhaps Americans will see that hope does not come from the mouths of lawyers but from personal dreams nourished by hard work. Perhaps Americans will embrace the truth that more lawyers with more power will only place limits on Freedom.
The United States has 5% of the world’s population and 66% of the world’s lawyers! Tort (Legal) reform legislation has been introduced in congress several times in the last several years to limit punitive damages in ridiculous lawsuits such as spilling hot coffee on yourself and suing the establishment that sold it to you and also limit punitive damages in huge medical malpractice lawsuits. This legislation has continually been blocked from even being voted on by the Democrat Party.
When you see that 97% of the political contributions from the American Trial Lawyers Association goes to the Democrat Party, then you realize who is responsible for our medical and product costs being so high!
not really, it went right back to the economy
albeit...an empty one....
Now he's on education and infrastructure.
He's desperately trying to get them to stop asking "Why did you cave, wussy?" type questions.
But his suit is hanging big on him. I wonder how much weight he's losing. He looks ill.
