What Obama should learn from the republican mob tonight
Edited on Thu Sep-10-09 12:34 AM by quinnox
The republicans in congress acted like an unruly mob tonight in shouting at the president and waving silly pieces of paper at him and basically acting like a bunch of jerks.
They obviously don't respect him as the president. They have no interest in working with him. They only want to bring him down with lies and cries of socialism and demonise him so that they can try to get back in power.

Obama should learn that the bipartisanship will not work and he should work only with the Democrats to get the best and most liberal health bill through the congress as well as other legislation and if he has to use strong arm tactics like nuclear option in the Senate to get these bills passed then do it.

THe republicans are just using delay tactics and they don't want to pass anything of Obama's agenda. So screw them and get the best parts of his agenda through now with only Democrats, if we lose some blue dog seats in the process so be it, at least Obama will have some accomplishments to be proud of.

1. Maxine Waters told Ed Shultz that the Repugs will never vote for health reform.
So why bother. She said they're just going to be obstructionist. He's tried his best. I say fuck 'em if they won't respect the president, or even try to work with him.
