Rep. John Conyers (D-Mich.) didnt hold back Monday in rattling off a list of go-to liberal complaints about President Barack Obama, explaining that he just wants to make him a better president.
Im sure he realized what he was getting into, said Conyers in a Monday morning speech to the National Press Club. He tried to close Guantanamo; he was against tax cuts to the wealthy; we keep getting a longer and longer list of things that he wanted to do, wished he could do, and of course is having a big problem. The only thing that saves him, of course, is there doesnt seem to be anybody to run against him next year.
When pressed on his criticism of the president, Conyers said that he supported the president over the alternatives: a GOP field of candidates that he called not the greatest list to choose from as we go into the next election."
The alternative is unthinkable, said Conyers. I just want to make him a better president. I was doing this before he was doing what hes doing Of course I support him. I just want him to do more.
Conyers speech was billed as talk on gun control, but his comments ran the gamut: From how he "regrets" the resignation of State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley following his comments about the governments' handling of Wikileaks suspect Bradley Manning, to his defense the health care overhaul law passed by Democrats last year.
Still, Conyers had some praise for the president.
While holding up a red-and-white button that read, I [heart logo] Obamacare, Conyers said that he was trying to re-brand the derogatory term often used by critics to describe the new law.
Were trying to take what was intended to be derogatory; were now trying to predict that this may be one of his first political victory, but certainly one that the president will be remembered for, said Conyers. We not only proclaim that we love Obamacare, but there are 62 reasons for you to at least like it, somewhere among the 62.
Conyers was also pleased that the president finally spoke out about gun control in a weekend op-ed in the Arizona Daily Star that called for better background checks and improved record keeping for arms purchases. .
I was pleased with that, said Conyers. And he started a discussion off in Arizona, of all places.
The first step to making Stroker a “better president” would to put the word “FORMER” (or “EX”) in front of his title.
Nothing else would apply.
The "D" stands for DUMBASS.
Is his wife in prison yet?
The only thing that saves BoyObaMao is that he is beloved by stupid, corrupt, black Democrats like Conyers.
bttt
LOL! I think she is. It seems John should be trying to help his wife be an honest person, of course he lacks the qualifications to do that.
Must be an upscale neighborhood, they only took the wheels and tires instead of the whole car. :)
My question to Conyers is “better than what”?
Who doesn’t?!
;-)
The only thing that saves BoyObaMao is that he is beloved by stupid, corrupt, black Democrats like Conyers, and the marxist leaning media, ignorant, communist Hollywood, nose picking, move-on members, knuckle dragging union bullies, and moral relevency idiots. That about covers his base.
John, you need to work on your convict wife first.
A steaming pile of dog sh*t?
Send Obama back to Chicago and make him a better basketball player!
