Obama needs an attitude adjustment

All second termers lose on a legislative issue. Obama forced the House gop to raise income taxes on the very wealthy. The real effect of that is absolutely nothing. They aren't paying close to the real rate middle income people pay, and that hasn't changed.

Obama has no lost on an issue 90% agree with him on. Compare that to W and trying to privatize soc sec. Obama's essentially campaiging for Hillary in 16. He continues to drive the narrative on issues. Everyone knows that there will be another Sandy Hook

The question now is really whether obamacare will derail the progressives.
 
This wasn't an example of obama's lack of leadership skills. A true leader picks his battles better. obama has decided not lead, but dictate according to his own whims and desires. Whims and desires that are in total opposition to what the people want. In true dictatorial fashion, he has promised to punish those democrats who followed the direction of their constituents rather than what he told them to do.

yes -- he got his ass kicked on this -- no 2 ways about it .

as for punishing those who went against him -- well, good luck; support of gun control has never been a motivating voting issue and this wont be either. and the fact is the word around here in dc is that despite the rhetoric - thats just for the base -- they are already want to move away from this and on to immigration which they dont want made tougher to get through as a result of this. i think a lot of immigration reform opponents are going to be very encouraged by this and more inclined to fight it .

Sure, but boehner won' t let a comprehensive bill come onto the floor. The house gop won't vote for amnesty.

Every issue is the same. Obama is allowing the gop to move further form the middle. however, it's possible that the dims will destroy themselves as well.

The dims will not take the house in 14, and may not keep the senate. The campaign is for 16, and even then the big prize is the next census. Obama's ego is large. He wants a legacy that lasts 30 years.

BO has already started major campaigning for 2014.....he needs to win back 17 House seats....

Obama, fresh off his November reelection, began almost at once executing plans to win back the House in 2014, which he and his advisers believe will be crucial to the outcome of his second term and to his legacy as president. He is doing so by trying to articulate for the American electorate his own feelings — an exasperation with an opposition party that blocks even the most politically popular elements of his agenda.

Obama has committed to raising money for fellow Democrats, agreed to help recruit viable candidates, and launched a political nonprofit group dedicated to furthering his agenda and that of his congressional allies. The goal is to flip the Republican-held House back to Democratic control, allowing Obama to push forward with a progressive agenda on gun control, immigration, climate change and the economy during his final two years in office, according to congressional Democrats, strategists and others familiar with Obama’s thinking.

“The president understands that to get anything done, he needs a Democratic majority in the House of Representatives,” said Rep. Steve Israel (N.Y.), chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. “To have a legacy in 2016, he will need a House majority in 2014, and that work has to start now.”

and your party voting against what 90% of the country wanted will surely help us win back the house.

enjoy the last mouthful of tar on your way down into the pit dino
 
The defeat of the gun control bill is another example of Obama's lack of leadership skills. I have never seen anyone in a position of leadership who so profoundly sucks at it.

This guy had momentum out the wazoo to get his gun control dreams passed. He could not have asked for a more perfect storm to get what he wanted.

Amazing. What a complete stumblefuck this guy is.

Wait, the repubs vote against a bill that has 90% support from the American Republic. A Bill that was written by a Repub and a Dem. A bill that was written by two members with an A rating with the NRA. The republicans voted AGAINST that bill and that is the fault of...Obama?

PS. Attitude adjustment sounds like the "angry black man" card is being played again.

tell that to Harry Reid and the other Dems who voted against more stupid gun control....

still waiting for your proof that 90% of americans want gun control--------or you could just admit that you are lying again.
 
The obvious answer is staring you in the face. 90% of the public does NOT support this bill! That's why democrats who want to keep their office voted against it.

Liberals can SAY that 90% of the public supports enhanced background checks 24/7 with no holidays off and it still won't be true. Gun sales have soared, not 90% but 400% since obama's reelection. There are shortages everywhere and waiting lists.

Background checks can ONLY affect the law abiding citizen. It will never affect the criminal. Which is why the proposal failed. Most individuals know that.
 
Did robmoney win by 5% like you clowns screamed about?

no but it was a very close election .....less than 3 million votes .....notice nobody on the right demanded a recount ?? notice we didn't take it to the courts ?? we are an example of how Americans should conduct themselves in the political arena .And in 2014 Obama is going to lose congress !!
 
90% of americans agree with Obama and not you op

Just more evidence of how badly Obama sucks at leadership. If he had 90 percent of the country supporting him, and he STILL failed, that speaks volumes about his incompetence. They guy was throwing dead kids around like pinatas to get support. He had it all. Blood, violence, itty bitty slaughtered children and dead heroic teachers. He had America's heartstrings clenched in his fist, and still he FAILED.
