PEOSTA, IOWA – At the White House Rural Economic Forum in Iowa today, President Obama made his case to “enlist” Iowans in the fight to end partisan gridlock in Washington, which he said is to blame for the lack of economic growth.
“The only thing that is holding us back is our politics… The refusal of a faction in Congress to put country ahead of party. And that has to stop. Our economy cannot afford it,” Obama said at the Northeast Iowa Community College in Peosta, Iowa.

In my opinion, the comments coming from the Fraud in Chief on his pathetic loser trip are so ridiculous and “off the wall” that he should film it for a SNL skit. Hey Prez, no one is laughing! On the positive side, he’s dragging the RATs down the political sewer with him.
That he's not talking about the Democrat party here is a yet another indication of how clueless he is.
Obama is not smart. The only reason Democrats think he is smart is because he probably is smarter than most Democrats.
But the rest of us see him for what he is. Every time he insults our intelligence, he calls his own into further question.
Charles Krauthammer just said obama’s rhetoric was the equivalent of accusing Republicans of treasonous activity and he should be called out for it the same way they jumped on Rick Perry. He’s right. But no one will say it.
The Dems sure can pick losers.
I heard on ABC news radio about the Iowans who protested obozo’s visit- any other media reports?
