Reid: Senate GOP wants Obama to fail By: Alex Isenstadt March 3, 2009 02:53 PM EST

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid put it in no uncertain terms today: Senate Republicans want Barack Obama to fail.

“It’s very clear they’ve made a decision they want President Obama to fail,” Reid told reporters, listing of a series of Obama proposals Republicans have lined up against, including the $410 billion omnibus spending package before the Senate this week.

When asked to name specific Senate Republicans who wanted Obama to fail, Reid would only say a “number of Republicans.”

“It’s very clear,” Reid said. “Some have said so, others have acted accordingly.”

Talk about failure - wasn't this the genius that said the Iraq war was lost before it was over? Did anyone in the press chastise Reed for wanting the US Military to fail? Hell no............journalism is indeed dead.

Why would anyone wish, hope or want Obama to fail and who are these people? It is coterminous with wanting the sky to be blue or the sun to be hot. Obama has failed (past tense) and is a failed president.

Every bill he has signed into law and every proposal he has made has been a failure of gargantuan proportion. Every Socialist policy he intends to unleash on America has already been tried and invariably fails each time it is tried. Obama is a failure and the owner of a failed presidency, in record time, unprecedented arrogance in tow.

This is them seeding the media so that when obama does fail, they can blame the republicans.. Watch for more of this rhetoric.

They always plant and seed thoughts and messages to cover all bases. If they succeed, they can take credit since it was obama’s plan. If they fail. They can say they failed because the republicans wouldn’t help....

Catch 22.. How do you fight back?

Yep. I want Obama to fail because for him to succeed means we are now at the very least Socialist.

Republicans should come back with "Yes we want him to fail. His economic policies will bankrupt this country if they succeed. Just look at your 401K balance."

This is a gift to Republicans, if only they will view it as such and take advantage of it.

And if that limp-wrist McConnell were smart, he’d immediately stand up and repeat just exactly what Rush said the other day. But don’t count of it. After all, Mitchie voted FOR the first stimulus.

A despicable old bag of garbage. How do these people remain in the powerful positions they are in? This guy should be in jail.

You repeat, early and often, "Democrats are destroying America with Socialist policies. Any bill the Democrats or Obama want passed into law they can do so.They need no help from Republicans. The Democrats and Obama are in power, they are the majority in Congress."
