I love this line from the link:
"The president is interested in breaking the back of the opposition"
Awwwww...poor widdle Republican's!
They've been trying to break Obama since before he got the nomination in 2008, telling every known lie, inventing conspiracy theories, flooding the internet and our inboxes with lies, opposing EVERYTHING he does, blaming him for everything and giving him no credit for anything, including killing bin Laden. They've obstructed, lied, cheated, swindled, blocked, grandstanded, pandered to morons, filibustered and used ever parliamentary tool in their arsenal to prevent Barack Obama from claiming a victory for anything at all. Everything he has accomplished was done in spite of the GOP and after forcibly ramming it down their throats. They've pretended to care, offered to compromise, then cut Obama's legs out from under him the first chance they got. They've tied up Congress with radical, loony legislation they know the Senate won't consider, then blamed the Democrats for doing nothing! They've been the most dishonest, duplicitous, lying opposition any President has ever faced. Their policies caused the recession, they've done all they could to extend it, then have the gall to blame Obama for the whole mess!
And now...NOW...when the President has finally had enough, has finally recognized the GOP isn't going to work with him on ANYTHING and that they're willing to send the whole nation right down the tubes to "get" him...now, he starts to fight back, to play THEIR game and they're crying "UNFAIR!" as crocodile tears pour down their pained little faces.
The GOP created this WWE spectacle which Washington has become, they've dog-piled the President for more than 4 years, while trying to tie his hands and feet and now they're getting it thrown back at them, in spades. They've sown the seeds of their own destruction and if Obama is now ready to water and harvest those seeds, I say more power to him. Enough is enough. He's been engaged in a knife fight with the GOP will trying to uphold the Marquis de Queensbury rules and GOP has slaughtered him and nation because of it. Now...the gloves have finally come off.
The Republican's will get no sympathy from me, so go whine to someone else.
