Boehner just asked Obama to move his speech by one day

[Sarah G]

As if this is going to get anyone to watch the Republican debates. As if..

The idiots.

 

[Cecilie1200]

Yes I do and so does every big republican donor. Why do you think the B-team of republicans are running for president? Your A-team is sitting this one out.

In all honesty and sincerity; what A-team?

You're right. You don't have an A team.

 

[Cecilie1200]

Interesting indeed. What if Obama says no? Then he comes out looking like an ass for playing political games with US jobs as the game pieces.

Does Anyone really think Obama was Unaware of the long planned Republican Debate at the Exact date and time he all of the sudden wants to address congress and the Nation? lol

If he really was, then we need to fire all those fucking aides we taxpayers are paying for whose job it is to keep his ignorant ass informed.

 

[Cecilie1200]

So let's see Obama should do what Boehner wants or he's being an ass. But if he gives in he'll be a pussy. As usual, nomatter what Obama does..repubs won't like it.

No, whatever he does is going to make him look like an ass, which we like just fine and which is his own damned fault for pulling such a boneheadedly childish stunt. Don't blame US if he painted himself into a corner.

 

[Cecilie1200]

To bad the republicans in the House have no idea about jobs legislation.

Too bad Obama doesn't. The Republicans in the House aren't the ones making a big speech about it.

 

[Cecilie1200]

Obama does not set his own schedual. He has someone to do that for him.

Yes, and his scheduler does so with no consultation with or input from "President" Obama. The so-called "leader of the free world" is just a helpless pawn at the mercy of his aides.

So, please explain how I CAN'T be President?

Your posting record at USMB.

It would instantly torpedo any chance you never really had.

I just read every page on this thread.


I have come to the conclusion that we are fucked as a nation.


I personally rather hear what the Prez has to say however, I understand there is some excitement about the GOP debate but do we really have to turn this into a Parisian debacle?


I sit here quite disappointed in the majority of the posts I read, on both ends. We have a lack of critical thinking going on here, for sure.

So? Let America chose what they want to see. There isn't any excitment on my part to watch the gop make complete fools of themselves. Does anyone really want that much Michelle Bachmann exposure?

Rick Perry winking at the camera is something I could def live without. Let's look at the president's plan instead.

I sure wish Obama would stop giving in to these morons. Utter morons.

Oh well, Obama has been in some tight spaces before and come up with a big win when people realize what kind of idiocy we will endure again with GOP "leadership". We'll see what happens here.

 

[nolebrakai]

Obama has a few aces in his back pocket, now is not the time to go there. the gloves will come off. If im him, I wait for the GOP to decide on a contender and then go full throttle. Obama is a smart tactful politician.


This was not worth even going there. I would assume most of American would want to hear Obamas new plan. I should say, more peeps want to hear Obama than listen to a GOP round table sparring match.

I would LOVE to see them prevent Obama from speaking in the House that night. It would force Obama to either pick a different night, or do a televised thing from the White House.

The former would show Obama in a good light, not wanting to upstage the GOP.

The latter would prove his intent with picking that night was specifically to upstage the GOP.

He picked a different night.

Bet you still don't see Obama in a "good light".

Why would they bother?

It doesn't concern them at all.

…the hatred of gays alone.



Devoid of substantive policy initiatives, the GOP continues its program of duplicity and deceit.

 

[mudwhistle]

Im sure the republicans would alter their plans for Obama if he asked.

First of all changing the scheduling of the debate would be much more difficult.

Second of all, another jobs bill is not the kind of thing that needs to be addressed before a full Congress, especially when some of the participants of the debate would have to be in two places at once. Obama can easily do one of those 1pm speeches he specializes in. Nope, he wants to lecture us and lecture Congress on primetime. Wow....he really knows how to bring folks together, don't he???

It was a stunt Obama pulled that backfired on him. Instead he resorted to snapping at Congress about doing their jobs in a email after he was forced to reschedule.

personally, I am grateful that the President showed the good sense not to make a huge argument about this and changed the date of his speech. Of course, it would have been better if he had not been a dick about it in the first place by choosing the same date as the GOP debate.

Was Perry "a dick" when he announced his run during the first debate?

So now he looks weak and classes.....as well as vindictive. He snapped at Congress in an email after announcing that he's changing the date.....telling them they'd better do their jobs.

He needs to worry about doing his first.

Did Perry force a joint-session of congress on prime-time to do it???

Didn't backfire at all.

Worked just as it was probably intended to work.

You wouldn't see that.

But then again..you'll probably be dumbfounded by the 2012 election results too.

Claim it was ACORN!!!
