President Obama, irritated by Republican pledges to prevent Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice from receiving a promotion, said that Rice’s critics “have a problem with me.”
“When they go after the UN ambassador apparently because they think she’s an easy target, then they’ve got a problem with me,” Obama told reporters today. “And should I choose — if I think that she would be the best person to serve America in the capacity of the State Department [head] then I will nominate her, but that’s not a determination I’ve made yet.”
Obama was responding to a press conference held by three GOP senators this morning. “We will do whatever’s necessary to block the nomination that’s within our power as far as Susan Rice is concerned,” Sen.

Play the black card all you want what’s the worse they can do now?
Hand me that towel and brush off my shoulders. Now!
King Obama telling McCain, once again, that He Won! I’m not encouraged that McCain will follow through. He’s probably just angling for some gift from ‘nice guy’ Barry Obama.
Sometimes I wonder if this is Kabuki opera and they’ve already decided at the Washington bars to let Susan get rejected as a kind of quid pro quo between the Republicans and Democrats.
Wow. Zero sure is full of himself, especially since he knows he has media backing, who will cover him on everything.
I'm with you.
Sabotage - with or without our help - seems to be the best strategy.
Now that's funny!
Ron White: "I think because of the unrest in the Middle East, we're all becoming more aware of the globe. I found out the other day there really is a place called Bumfuk, Egypt. And the only way to get there is to go up Shit Creek."
I don’t think you’d want to be near this guy with a razor in his hand
Gangsta Government
Two of the lamest Republican members of the Senate. They will give mere lip service and then cave as always and she will be a slam dunk.
It's completely appropriate. The Worst President Ever should have the Worst Cabinet Ever. Let's go for it ... appoint the clinically insane to high office. Let's see what the demonicRat Party is really all about. If we're gonna crash and burn, let's do it up right.
Care for a beer?
When they go after the UN ambassador apparently because they think she’s an easy target, then they’ve got a problem with me,” >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Hell , half the country has a problem with Obama and has for years. Yet Obama thinks having a problem with “Him” is anything new? LOL.
Eff this son of a hoover
Fascist alarms are going off all across the country.
In other words, the Senate and House no longer matter.
As predicted. He was re-elected, and empowered. Now, no one can stop him or his minions with completing his destruction of the US.
Susan Rice would be much better off fleeing town.
When it comes to organizing a Gang Of something to muck up the works of the Senate, McCain is your guy.
Well, they haven't given lip service so far on Ben Ghazi.
In fact, they have been as or more outspoken than anyone.
Your tagline is a perfect description of the Barry 0dinga regime.
