The Budget Fight and Obamas Vindictive Streak
The president thinks negotiating with his ideological opponents on the budget is beneath him.
By Jonah Goldberg
Shutting down the government in an effort to use a budget fight to get rid of Obamacare is not the strategy I would have recommended for the GOP. And while Republicans can be blamed for starting the shutdown, its increasingly apparent that President Obama and the Democrats deserve the lions share of blame for not only prolonging it but also making it as painful as possible.
Just called Senator Kay Hagan (D-NC) to ask why she wasn’t at the WWII Memorial and cutting these ties to allow the vets entrance...Her office is closed and not taking messages...
I then called Richard Burr (R-NC) for the same purpose...His office IS open and gladly took my message...
What does this say about the closure????
