Spending cuts first.

[cripplecreek]

Sounds like we’re being set up for another holiday surprise.

[liberalh8ter]

Aside from the deplorable fact that these legislators can't manage to do their job......Obama AGAIN demonstrates that he knows nothing about our Republic. He is NOT their boss and he does not dictate when they stay in session.

[dblshot]

He can suggest all he likes, the president does not run congress. What an egotist. If Boner acquiesces he should be fired.

[JRandomFreeper]

I don't think he has the power to order that. If I was a congress critter, I'd tell him to pound sand and make a rude gesture.

Not unlike my current behavior, as a serf.

Who died and left him in charge?

[SueRae]

Here we go again...3 years in a row they’ve pulled this grinch routine. Then comes holiday recess and with it a few surprise appointments by the occupant.

[kidd]

That mean ol’ separation of powers thingy is real inconvenient for dictator-wanabees like Obama.

[apillar]

No holiday for legislators without tax cut welfare handout to people who don't earn enough to pay taxes anyway.

Fixed it...

[Darkwolf377]

Obama is betting on the masses of folks who want their “Obama money” not knowing how Washington works. I guarantee you there will be people voting for him next year who, if asked, will say one thing they like about him is “He kept those Republicans in Washington last year and would let them go home unless they gave us a tax cut.”

[Sacajaweau]

So we don't replenish the SS fund and surprise.....it runs a deficient for the first time.

and seniors didn't get Cola for two years.

But they will next year along with a hefty raise in their Part B premium. Which one is Peter and which one is Paul??

[Sacajaweau]

He’s disgusting....

[glorgau]

Rest assured that Obama will still get in 3 or 4 rounds of golf. Probably in Hawaii.

[jagusafr]

White House spokesman Jay Carney said Obama’s remarks were “a measure of the seriousness of the issue at hand.”

No, they’re a measure of what an arrogant pr*ck he is.

[lurk]

He’s been golfing and vacationing all year and now all of a sudden he’s engaged in legislative conversation.

[LibLieSlayer]

Hey sparky... if Congress stays in town... you stay in town... and no golf-ee for the kenyan muzzie and no GODless celebration of your anti Christian holiday of islamas.

LLS

[Buckeye McFrog]

Sounds like he is daring them to defy him and take a holiday recess (so that he can make a bunch of new recess appointments)

[calex59]

And just how does the commie dictator wannabee think he is going to stop them if they decide to leave?

[ArmstedFragg]

I do not think co-equal means what he thinks it means...

[GeorgeTex]

That really brings a smile to my face. The President threatening to hold the Congress hostage. What a laugh!
