Krauthammer to Megyn Kelly: Obama Presser Was to Stop ‘Open Rebellion’ of Democrats
Mediaite ^ | November 14th, 2013 | Josh Feldman

Posted on 11/14/2013 8:28:06 PM PST by Hotlanta Mike

Charles Krauthammer joined Megyn Kelly Thursday night to react to President Obama‘s big Obamacare announcement/press conference, and as far as Krauthammer was concerned, Obama got out front and center on this in order to prevent “open rebellion” from within the panicked Democratic party, especially with the threat of abandonment a day away.

Krauthammer described this as the “usual lawlessness” one has come to expect from the Obama administration on big issues, but said the real reason for the press conference was not to fix the law, but to save Obama’s immediate political future.

I don’t think he helped himself much, even with his brother RATs. Another failure.

I think Kraut is onto something there.

Kraut is good when his subjectivity doesn’t get in the way.

Me too. Obama doesn't give a sh!t about the "folks" being hurt by his law. He only cares about how the backlash is affecting him and his cronies.

Charles is guessing.

I’m more inclined to think there’s going to be a RAT Revolt anyhow, but his presser today was about making sure who got credit for trying to stop it - i.e. Obama, not Landrieu or anyone else.

As a narcissist, this failure and erosion of his image has to be eating Obama up. He may not show it publicly but we know how thin-skinned he is.

I’d hate to be Bo.

Hillary’s revenge for Obama blitzkrieging her with his bussed in ACORN supporters at the caucus primary states in 2008. Watch for a timed release of some Soetoro college records listing him as a foreign student...

Oh man, can you even imagine what it must be like inside the White Hut right now? Must be sheer pandemonium.

Did you see the recent FNC special on Krauthammer?

Mind you, I noticed your other post that you quit FNC. So no I suppose...

Not “to save Obama’s immediate political future,” but to save all RAT’s future come November ‘14 and to save his “signature achievement” of bringing marxism to America.

I only heard part of Kraut live, and after listening to the clip in full I have no quarrel with his opinion.

We’ll see - if Mary Landrieu doesn’t proceed with her bill, then Obama will have calmed the insurrection.

But Obamacare is flawed in so many ways, new pains and new lies will keep coming up, and those at-risk Democrats will not be placated by the mumbo-jumbo Obama spewed today that everyone knows isn’t going to change anything.

Today is the first day of Obama’s political death spiral...and a very great setback for the liberal/socialist/demonazi agenda.
