Does Obama read the tea leaves? Promises to work with GOP if reelected

[PredFan]

On the day of President Obama's inauguration, Republicans were miles away at a dinner...plotting how to oppose the President. The President should be saying **** YOU to the GOP.

I would expect the GOP to oppose obama. He's 100% wrong for this country. Nothing he proposes should be allowed to pass.

 

[Katzndogz]

If there are republicans who won't oppose obama, they will be replaced by republicans who will at the very next election.

 

[Stephanie]

oooooooooo, they were plotting..Obama had almost TWO YEARS before the house went back to the Republicans...

And not to worry the Dear Leader has done nothing but say **** you to the Gop, and to us citizens who didn't vote for him..

Pelley: You were unable to get your own caucus behind your bill a few days ago. Do you intend to remain Speaker of the House?

Boehner: I do. When you look at this final agreement that we came to with the white House, I got 98 percent of what I wanted. I'm pretty happy.

So, when are Republicans going to pass Obama's jobs bill and get some infrastructure work going?

 

[LeftofLeft]

He did that before..most of the initiatives that Obama was involved in, incorporated Republican ideas.

Republicans on the other hand..held a meeting to devise a policy to make Obama a one term President. And that was before he was inaugurated.

How soon they forget..

How soon you forget or perhaps you accept the notion that "elections have consequences" and that Republicans should get to the back of the bus if they want to come a long for the ride?

Question: Did Obama say those things before or after McConnell said that his main political goal was to see that Obama as a one term president?

Hint: McConnell uttered those words before Obama was even inaugurated.

Obama Promises to Start Compromising – If He Wins Reelection | The Lonely Conservative

Kinda late for that promise lol

I'd need to read him saying that in quotes, from the start of a sentence to the end of the sentence are hear a link.

I don't believe for one second that the party of no/dems will change it's ways just b/c obama say that he will.

He's a known liar. and has little history of working with anyone not on his team.

 

[J.E.D]

The reader comments are hysterical.

There is no obama jobs bill. obama never wrote one, and has refused to meet with his own jobs council. There is a jobs bill, but that's in stuck in the senate because of Harry Reid.

 

[Katzndogz]

This is how much obama works.

White House to miss deadline for report on 'fiscal cliff' budget cuts - The Hill's On The Money

The White House on Friday said it will miss the legal deadline for delivering a report to Congress on the spending cuts from sequestration that are scheduled to take effect in 2013.

Maybe he's too busy campaigning.

Just like '08 when he was going to usher in a new era in cooperation and transparency. Then immediately proceeded to do anything but after gaining office.

Obamas idea of cooperation is for people sit down, shut up, and do what he says. Anything less than that is the republicans fault.

"I won, get over it....."

"Republicans have to ride in the back seat....."


Fail....

"Fail" nothing.

That was the fact.

He won. He was going to lead the nation.

Republican policy was not going to be the driving force.

See what happened over the 8 years before Obama was elected.

Republican policy WAS the driving force.

Bush won.

Absolute bullshit.

Obama incorporate a great many Republican ideas..and got burned big time.

The ACA (or Obamacare) was the Republican plan..and they called it his "waterloo".

Obama had an oil friendly policy then got 2 major oil spills and Republicans blaming him EVERY SINGLE DAY for them.

Obama went with Bush's plan to quit Iraq..and REPUBLICANS called it cowardly and suggested that it weakened the nation.

Obama sent a troop surge to Afghanistan and Republicans said that was a mistake.


There isn't a thing Republicans in congress have praised the President on..even killing Osama bin Laden.

It's part of the Republican platform. Get Obama out of office. As it was part of the Republican plank to get Clinton out of office. Conservatives in general think they have a god given right to rule. And that democracy is a sham.

 

[Seawytch]

Let’s just say it: The Republicans are the problem.

 

[Katzndogz]

If republicans are the problem, where is the democrats final solution?

It's called voting. (Of course, the GOP is trying to stifle that too).

He's been trying to comprimise with them all along. Even when he had a filibuster proof majority in the Senate.

Unfortunately, until the GOP throws off the influence of the Teabaggers, it's going to be impossible to get normal operations in this government.

Obamacare has some republican ideas in it, but it's far from "their plan". There's no way they could, or should, have voted for that bullshit.

What oil friendly policy? Letting the permits Bush approved go through? or sending billions to foreign nations to develop their oil production?
