AUSTIN Texas (Reuters) - President Barack Obama may look back on this week as the time when he dropped all pretense of political decorum and let all his frustrations with Washington gridlock spill forth.
Obama's public speeches on a three-day trip, like the one he delivered at the Paramount Theater in Austin, Texas, on Thursday, covered many of the same talking points he delivers at Democratic fund-raising events.
But the tone was significantly sharper.
In fact, the slashing rhetoric he used before an adoring crowd in the Texas capital may well have surpassed the typically sober review of the status of Washington that he lays out for high-dollar Democratic donors.
Obama has a long list of grievances with Republicans who control the House of Representatives, who have blocked much of his second-term agenda. Problem No. 1 is the lawsuit that House of Representatives Speaker John Boehner is threatening to file over what Republicans feel is Obama's wanton use of executive orders to skirt around congressional inertia. "You hear some of 'em, 'sue him, impeach him,'" Obama said, then added a sarcastic, "Really?"
"For what? You're going to sue me for doing my job? OK. I mean, think about that, you're going to use taxpayer money to sue me for doing my job, while you don't do your job?"
The crowd applauded.

Nobody takes Hussein seriously anymore.
At least, I certainly hope not.
“What I’ve said to my team is ‘get me out of Washington,’
Guess we know now where that 90 pounds of missing uranium is headed.
The Democrat Party is run by greedy, vengeful ten year olds.
Completely deranged psychopathy.

Well, it only took 5+ years but he has finally given me a common ground that I can enthusiastically back.
He almost ‘had’ me before when I turned his “hope and change” into ‘HOPE FOR A CHANGE’.

Possible Coup DE Tat not far fetched.
taxpayer money to sue me for doing my job —
He uses my (taxpayer) money to sue and prosecute me, and other citizens.
Pampered milquetoast swine.
Laughing out loud.
I heard on my Tucson radio station, on the commentary part, Obama was heckled, and the hecklers were angry that he was not doing more to help the conquistadors.
Obama had to ask them to quiet down, and did not ask that they be escorted out from their positions in the front of his podium.
At one point he told them, “I’m on your side. “
Supposedly that was left out of the transcript that was sent over the wires.
0 is responding like a child, or worse, like a dictator backed into a corner....
Malignant narcissists are unstable and dangerous when cornered...
Apparently there’s still one group of lemmings, some with big money, who do. May they feel the increasing isolation along with their idol.
Why aren’t any Repubs challenging the idiotic comments made by the traitor in chief? Unchallenged assertions are assumed to be true by the great unwashed.
The President is on the verge of an EPIC public crackup that will destroy his Presidency. Now is the time to double down, put the pressure on, and push him over the edge.
