And all of you know it. I mean, I'm not telling you anything you don't know because it's very explicit. You report on it. A big chunk of the Republican Party right now is -- are in gerrymandered districts where there's no competition and those folks are much more worried about a tea party challenger than they are about a general election where they've got to complete against a Democrat or go after independent votes. And in that environment, it's a lot harder for them to compromise......." The October 8, 2013 rant
Make Bammy eat his peas.
I can hear Obie’s grandma.....Here honey...Take the cookie jar to your room and later we’ll talk about you selling my jewelry at school.
“Give me a blank check, and then we’ll discuss your wishes.”
I listened to him....He looked like he was going in circles. Nothing made sense.
That's not being too representative, but I'll take it at the moment.
He’s willing to open negotiations after the unconditional surrender.
Anybody else notice that the little fudgepacker fights just like a woman?
The old “put down your guns first” con job....
I was getting my nails done while the resident was yammering on—and on—and on.
Thank goodness the sound wasn’t on.
Several people in the nail shop were saying not nice things about the resident, and I loved it, but didn’t chime in. I could tell that the person doing my nails was one of his supporters, and I didn’t want to say anything that would make her slip with the nippers she was using-—LOL!
With all the rhetoric about 'holding hostages', isn't this position the very essence of 'ransom'???
I mean, how is this different from 'I'll release the kidnap victim after you drop off the bag of money?'
And what kind of idiot trusts a habitual liar and gives him everything he wants on the promise of a payoff?
Oh. Republicans. Yeah, that's what kind of idiots...
IF what he says is true,
the representatives... hmmm... that word means something, does it?
well, the representatives are representing the will of their constituents, and not acting like elitist “know betters”.
This reads like something from The Onion.
So he wants them to give him the milk, and then he will discuss the cow, which he then will not buy.
If crybaby Boehner falls for this there isn’t enough duct tape in the world to keep conservative heads from exploding.
I thought the idea of a democracy is that the pols had to listen to us.
And since when was gerrymandering a republican idea?
Just once I wish a presstitute would point out the obvious to this freakin' pretender.
Heard that before. First, raise the debt, and then we’ll talk. Riiight.
First, eliminate Education, EPA, USDA, and half of the cabinet-level agencies.
“hand over your wallet and then we’ll talk about whether or not I’m going to rob you”...
Besides, the gummint IS open, at least the Obamacare website is, right?
Obama’s speech (what I could stomach watching)reminded me of Caesars Chavez justifying his take over of the economy. He sounded like a dictator not an elected president. I fear that Obama will use the debt crisis to seize more unconstitutional powers in bypassing Congress. We could be seeing an end to our Republic. Sadly the GOP will likely cave in.
IOW, GIVE ME EVERYTHING I WANT, THEN I’LL TALK ABOUT NEGOTIATING.....................
