then: F ‘bipartisanship’

It’s just another way of saying ‘appeasement’

~~~

That’s just about the wording I used when I called
Mitch McConnell’s office this am. We don’t want
appeasers .. we don’t want people who cross the
aisle. We want to see spine .. fight for us!!!

The “stimulus” plan should be renamed the “Welfare Expansion Act of 2009”. It will vastly increase federal spending, but will do next to nothing to alleviate the current, government-caused, economic crisis.

If the Obama administration had any common sense, it would eliminate mark-to-market accounting. If Congress and the president had brains, they would eliminate the federal income tax and all its excess baggage, replacing it with a national sales tax.

The above two actions would result in an unprecedented economic boom.

Come on Gregg!
Announce that you must withdraw from the position because you do not think Obama is actually qualified to be the president of the United States of America and all of his cabinet appointments are doomed. Choose to remain in your current job and not suffer the fate of Hillary when she is no longer sec of state or senator as Obama is kicked to the White House curb.

Now that Obama’s done what’s he’s done with the Census, who will agree to be the Commerce pick? I mean, either Obama has to issue an EO canceling the other EO, or his Commerce pick will have to know that power has been removed from the office.

And if Obama cancels the other EO, he not only loses face, but he makes it obvious to all with an IQ above dirt that it was a raw political, and racist, power grab.
What to do?

Laugh and buy more popcorn!

No doubt, Gregg was probably reluctant from the get-go. I really thought there was a chance he'd drop out.

While not a full fledged conservative, Gregg thankfully corrected a serious error in judgment made on his part and in the process making Obama look bad.

Oh I have a suspicion, Hillary is in doing a lot of damage inside the WH,seems to me, she is holding a very big rival base against Obama. She may take him down before he takes her down.

Right on. That’s why a Press Conference is important. But, MSM won’t tell the sheeple.

“he saw that Obambi was anything but “centrist” and wasn’t going to be the token Republican in a marxist white house.”

Ditto.

He may be a rino, but he’s not a commie.

LOL. Good one.

When I asked, “What to do”, I was asking in the place of Obama, what is HE to do????

More derisive laughter.

I’m glad he showed the testicular fortitude to turn it down.

Apparently TF only runs as far East as New Hampshire.

So many screw ups in four weeks, he’s going to have set a new record for stupidity.

“However, it has become apparent during this process that this will not work for me as I have found that on issues such as the stimulus package and the Census there are irresolvable conflicts for me.

He doesn't believe in communism.

Gregg is completely sucking up to Obama. Yuck. Not even mentioning the Census.
