I was proud of my President today. (Obama VS 140 Republicans)

[Randall Flagg]

He took the Republicans to task and took their lies to the dumpster.

Can you imagine W in a similar situation? Nooooo, you can't because his puppet masters knew that the idiot son couldn't think on his feet. Even buddy-boy Reagan couldn't have done what was done today: An honest question and answer between opposing parties.

Today, he had a backbone and he kicked ass and didn't bother to take names.

1. It was awesome!

This is the guy I voted for, he's a leader and he stands his ground. What a relief!

[Randall Flagg]

2. I won't lie...

I've been waiting for a moment like this and have cringed more than once in the past 11 months.

But today made me smile.

[liberalmuse]

3. This is what I've seen time and time again....

Whenever this man Obama is attacked and put down, he gets right back up and his resolve is even greater. Whenever he is at his lowest point, I now expect him to come right back and hit it out of the park. People are happy for awhile, then they get disgruntled and forget, then the same cycle repeats itself and he hits an even bigger one out of the park. I've never seen anything like it. I really thing he's going to do, or at least be largely responsible for beginning to forge that path towards exactly what he's said he will do.

[Randall Flagg]

5. In listening to Blackburn (TN) with a well thought out and reasoned attack on health care

He picked her up and put her down gently.

Then he put a heel down.

This is (to me) fresh government.

[RoccoR5955]

9. The man certainly has a mind like a steel trap.

Unlike the former resident of the White House.

[Randall Flagg]

14. The only appliance the former resident of the White House would be

a colander.

[madokie]

21. He's a smart cookie

with buckets of patience so he will come out on top you can bet on that, especially now that he let them shoot themselves in the foot for the past year scoring little hateful spiteful none issues where they came off always as stupid. If Wednesday night was a jab then today was an uppercut.

I don't and never did think he ran and won the Presidency so he could be punked by the likes of boner and mcConnell and their fellow hapless happy hookers

The President has had his bring it on moment and it has been some kind of beautiful to watch.

[RedCloud]

4. Because he tackled 140 today, the St. Louis Rams select Obama with the first pick!

Way to go. And he beat them!

[Turbineguy]

6. If it was 140 to 1

They were obviously outnumbered, or in the famous works of Sergeant York: "I surrounded them"

[Randall Flagg]

10. God, it really seemed that way.

I'm watching excerpts as I type and he SO put them in their places.

[RoccoR5955]

7. Are these 140 people actually elected by WE THE PEOPLE?

Geeze, are they stupid! Why are they trying to play Obama for a fool?

[Randall Flagg]

13. Simply because they think that no one is smarter than they are.

That leaves a lot of room for learning humility.

[RoccoR5955]

8. Next time some CON comes and tells me that Obama can only speak to a teleprompter.

I am gonna show him this! Then I'll show them Bush in a situation where he couldn't even READ the teleprompter. Then watch them moan.

[Randall Flagg]

15. I just sent a repug emailer of mine the youtube link

with the comment that she couldn't of heard the whole thing on faux.

[mariema]

11. I was too.

How confident, poised and nimble of mind he was. It was a real pleasure to see. The Repubs will never allow this to happen again.

[Randall Flagg]

16. I had forgotten what that was like.

(in the previous 8 years)

[Bravo Zulu]

12. Obama beat em like a rented mule!

[The Midway Rebel]

17. Bust Their Balls Barry!

More of that please!

[11 Bravo]

18. +1 (Are you the Walking Dude or a metal band?)

[Randall Flagg]

25. I'm the Gunslinger...

The walking dude.

:)

[11 Bravo]

26. One of my favorite villians in contemporary literature. Pleased to meet you.

[Randall Flagg]

28. Mine as well

And it was interesting how he changed him into a hero in The Gunslinger, Roland Deschain of Gilead.

(Which, if you really want to get anal. has links to T.S. Elliot's Wastelands and a 14th C Chason de Geste.

[madokie]

19. He's always had a backbone

the deal is he is smart enough to know how to fight this party of no. Give them enough rope and they will hang themselves comes to mind. The honeymoon that Obama has been giving the :puke: is over. The gloves came off a couple days ago and we seen it was not a fluke today, This is the guy I voted for and trusted. Now I feel good because my staunch support of him is being seen as right.

[Randall Flagg]

29. Today, Obama came up with the most fucking brilliant answer to Republicans

that I have seen in fifty years.

[JNelson6563]

20. It was awesome.

They were so outnumbered! They seriously underestimated him. Fools.

Julie

[madokie]

22. And they are not smart enough to rebound from this

nor I suspect the days, weeks, months and years to come.

[frustrated_lefty]

23. May we have some more, please?

[sonias]

24. He's our David and took on the Goliath GOP

And kicked their ass even though he was outnumbered. Typical school yard bullies they are all hot air. When you confront them head on, they squirm and act like babies.

:spank: them some more Mr. President - please!!!

27. It reminded me of Neo taking on a hundred Agent Smiths.

It was an epic battle with similar results.

[B Calm]

30. refreshing having a leader that has a brain and can speak using complete sentences
