Obama took to the podium on Wednesday after the midterm elections and made it clearer than ever that he lives in his own universe. Americans sent the message loud and clear that they reject his policies and the Democrat platform as it currently stands, yet Obama drove the message home that even with a Republican Congress in control, he would continue to push his extremely unpopular liberal agenda.
The wellbeing of Americans has never been the top priority in Obama-land, and his arrogant-selfishness was the resounding sentiment throughout his misguided press conference.
In Obama’s mind there may as well not have been a midterm election at all. No matter who is in control of Congress, Barack Obama is going to do whatever he darn well pleases through Executive Orders, and no one can tell him otherwise. Although he says “I hear you” to those who voted on Tuesday as well as those who chose not to vote, Obama doesn’t “hear” anything that goes against his own liberal agenda. Now that Republicans control Congress, they must pass legislation that will dry up President Obama’s veto pen. The new Republican majority must show who the real obstructionist is – President Obama.

Obama thinks that he is a divine right king, not an elected president. I really think that he will refuse to vacate office and will have to be carried out.
And shame on the wimp wimp limp republicans for allowing it.
They’re who’ll be sworn in in 2017, with an appropriate smattering of pig castrators, but that had better be another wrestling match, because, as it has been stated this week, this was not a vote for (old guard) republicans.
Enablers
I hear ya!
Yes, there’s an implicit “but” following “I hear you”.
It’s the same with “I don’t disagree”.
..... the cheap salesman talk has caught up to the domestic & international public. He can’t sell the hype!
That’s right. People know he’s a Jive punk.
This vile creature is going to be humbled and humbled on a grand scale.
Tyrants never have good endings. Never.
“There is still a Republican minority ...b/c so many did not vote.”
Well then...let’s just do away with elections and award offices based solely on Party membership.
Me, too.
I’m afraid its going to be a long two years. The POS will continue pursuing his own radical agenda and his trashing of America. Without a doubt, we are headed straight for a constitutional crisis of his making. And this is going to get really ugly. Unfortunately, impeachment is probably not a viable solution for a number of reasons.
That siad, it will be interesting see how far the Democrats will let Obama go and how much damage they will allow him to do to them. Its not inconceivable that at some point a group of senior Dems could tell him he’s “lost their support”. That would be the end of the road for Obama.
What’s even worse is its latest variation, “I feel you.” Creepy! The next time I hear that I’m calling HR. (Where I’ll probably be told, “I hear you.”)
Impeachment???
Really?
After the complete mess the RINOs made of impeaching Clinton, who as we speak, 17 years later, makes three headlines a day?
We till have to hear Monica ewinski’s take on ...
Obama would have a National monument built for him if the republicans were to try to impeach him, and inevitably fail
Let them succeed in one thing they set out to do, esp in nailing him, ie... Benghazi, F&F, IRS, enhancing ISIS, schmoozing Iran, Pushing gay marriage...
the republican old guard is a huge group of girl men, many of whom actually failed to remove the impeached Clinton .
NO one want to go through that.
He doesn’t need to be impeached, besides. He lacks power and influence here
Clearly this man is delusional.....possibly deranged....could snap at any moment.

I’ve long thought that he would have a psychological meltdown at some point. With the national rejection and repudiation, we may be close to seeing somehting like that happen — at a public venue. Like all narcissists, he is very thin skinned and hyper defensive. People like that don’t deal well with criticism and can easily break.
He’s been protected all his life but those layers are getting thinner and thinner. Now he’s lost Reid’s cover and has to face a torrent of legislation, congressional hearings, and other challenges not to mention the increasing international tensions. The pressure is rapidly building on him. Just a matter of time.
He should perhaps say it (as a threat), but no way should he actually attempt to do it. Impeachment would succeed in the House, but conviction would certainly fail in the Senate. Then the Boy King can play the part of martyr. It would strengthen his hand, and make the GOP look vindictive.
IMHO, Boehner should make preparations to defund Obama's favorite programs. If Obama should dare to rule by decree, stop him by using the power of the purse.
Obama is the face of evil.
Barry needs a time out in a closet for about a month.
“I’m afraid its going to be a long two years. The POS will continue pursuing his own radical agenda and his trashing of America.”
I agree. Unfortunately Boehner and McConnell do not have the leadership skills, intelligence, desire, or backbone to fight him. Obama, Reid and Pelosi are in your face passionate fighters. Boehner and McConnell are backroom dealmaker political hacks.
Choosing Boehner and McConnell to lead the party in Congress is like the British Parliament of the 1930’s choosing Neville Chamberlain as Prime Minister and sending him to negotiate peace with Adolph Hitler. Until the Republicans find a Churchill or Reagan, the left will continue to advance no matter what happens in any election.
It would take nearly two years to impeach; by then he’s almost out of office (we hope). This trial would turn into a spectacle and a national ordeal. Republicans would get the blame for it.
Choosing new leaders for the House and Senate would change the political dynamics and energize the GOP. It would demonstrate a commitment to moving in a new direction. A new path forward so to speak. But I guess that has no chance of happening. Its the GOP don’t you know.
And so long as no one chains him down through the power of the purse or impeachment or simply arresting him for committing crimes, the rest of us are dragged into his universe and it becomes the real world for all of us, the real world of very few very rich and very many very poor and the only approximation of middle class being the apparatchiks/bureaucrats.
Pink golf set. LOL!!!! Great stuff.
