Obama nails it!

[KingOrfeo]

Finally saying what needs to be said!

“You’ll hear if you watch the nightly news or you read the newspapers that, well, there’s gridlock, Congress is broken, approval ratings for Congress are terrible. And there’s a tendency to say, a plague on both your houses. But the truth of the matter is that the problem in Congress is very specific. We have a group of folks in the Republican Party who have taken over who are so ideologically rigid, who are so committed to an economic theory that says if folks at the top do very well then everybody else is somehow going to do well; who deny the science of climate change; who don’t think making investments in early childhood education makes sense; who have repeatedly blocked raising a minimum wage so if you work full-time in this country you’re not living in poverty; who scoff at the notion that we might have a problem with women not getting paid for doing the same work that men are doing.
“They, so far, at least, have refused to budge on bipartisan legislation to fix our immigration system, despite the fact that every economist who’s looked at it says it’s going to improve our economy, cut our deficits, help spawn entrepreneurship, and alleviate great pain from millions of families all across the country.

“So the problem…is not that the Democrats are overly ideological — because the truth of the matter is, is that the Democrats in Congress have consistently been willing to compromise and reach out to the other side. There are no radical proposals coming out from the left. When we talk about climate change, we talk about how do we incentivize through the market greater investment in clean energy. When we talk about immigration reform there’s no wild-eyed romanticism. We say we’re going to be tough on the borders, but let’s also make sure that the system works to allow families to stay together…

“When we talk about taxes we don’t say we’re going to have rates in the 70 percent or 90 percent when it comes to income like existed here 50, 60 years ago. We say let’s just make sure that those of us who have been incredibly blessed by this country are giving back to kids so that they’re getting a good start in life, so that they get early childhood education…Health care — we didn’t suddenly impose some wild, crazy system. All we said was let’s make sure everybody has insurance. And this made the other side go nuts — the simple idea that in the wealthiest nation on Earth, nobody should go bankrupt because somebody in their family gets sick, working within a private system.

“So when you hear a false equivalence that somehow, well, Congress is just broken, it’s not true. What’s broken right now is a Republican Party that repeatedly says no to proven, time-tested strategies to grow the economy, create more jobs, ensure fairness, open up opportunity to all people.”

So true.

President Obama said this at a fundraiser. Where people would listen to what he was saying.
Where he would not be interrupted with Extremist Right Wing slogans, heckling and insults.

"At a fundraiser last night, President Obama unleashed a surprisingly spirited and comprehensive attack on both-sides-to-blame media coverage. While he has taken issue with Beltway coverage before, what was particularly noteworthy this time is that he made the case that “false equivalence” coverage is fundamentally misleading in the sense that it obscures the basic imbalance that currently exists between the two parties."

Let's face it, President Obama could say, "eating shite is a healthy and nutritious way to feed the poor," and King Orfeo would say, "YES, HE NAILED IT!"

However what Obama said in real life needed saying.

Like he's never said this before? In the entire six years of his Presidency he's never criticized Republican members of Congress and characterized them solely as obstructionists?

Really?

Really???

I don't think he's been nearly vocal enough about it. To be fair unless the talking heads make at least as big a deal about this speech as they do I dunno, the Indian Election, it doesn't really matter does it?

You can do better, bert.

And adjunct perfesser would not add anything meaningful commentary to the discussion, save for her trademark above-teh-fray and too-hip-for-this-room metacommentary snark.

Maybe her attitude will improve if she ever gets offered a tenure-track position.

so what if he's said it before. Its spot on. Obama could walk out and say "every American should carry a gun, get nothing for free ever and never pay another cent in taxes" and the GOP would call him irresponsible, write 25 bills to raise taxes and attempt to have all the gunsmiths in the country put in prison.

New Details on the GOP Plot to Obstruct Obama

Old news

the Republican plot to obstruct President Obama before he even took office, including secret meetings led by House GOP whip Eric Cantor (in December 2008)

“If he was for it,” former Ohio Senator George Voinovich explained, “we had to be against it.” The excerpt includes a special bonus nugget of Mitt Romney dissing the Tea Party.

Ironically, if overpopulations, deforestation and desertification become critical mass realities in the near future, recycling our collective shit into edible food sources won't be much of a joke.

*shudders*

the only thing obama nailed was being the biggest fuckboy houseslave in history.

That's kind of my point. The speech itself doesn't matter because there is really nothing new in it or unusual about it. It was a fundraising speech to an audience of partisans. Republican fundraising speeches to Republican audiences don't sound appreciably different. Only the party labels are changed.

Apart from those, like you, who feel you haven't heard it enough, I don't know why anyone would make a deal about it.

I would argue it hasn't been said enough center stage. Maybe I'm crazy though. I tjust seems that in a world where the news seems to largely be generated that Obama has not gotten this into a news cycle yet. There has yet to be a week that's just been about this.

I think a careful calculation would show Harry Reid blocking more legislation than the GOP.

That had a half prayer of getting past Obama and the still Democrat Senate? C'mon back to reality.

 

[Ulaven_Demorte]

Perhaps the House GOP should stop loading nearly every bit of legislation with unrelated poison pills. You know, if they actually wanted them to have a chance in hell at being passed and signed by the President.

im racist?.. what against people who pose as black so that blacks will vote for them, then turn around and fuck everyone over and prove he's just sucking rich white dick like al politicians? if that makes me racist, than suck my ass honky. lolz.
you weirdo's crack me up, i wish you could step off the internet for ten minutes and try out reality where the rest of us live

 

[siobhansmut]

Whose?

whose fuckboy? everyone in washington, dude is a total pussy. they tried to push him as this down home progressive minded chicago dude that was for the people...unfortunately most americans never mature past a childs intellectual capabilities so they actually never realize this until they vote for one of these assclowns, then you're all like, OMG like this is totally crazy, this politician actually LIED to me, like ohmygosh! obama is a fucking cocksucker... i was in prison when he got elected. surrounded by black people that live in the real world, not the fantasy role-play fox news weaves for people, but the real reality. and every least one of them with a brain except for a couple of naive young ones were like, man that nigga aint black, what real nigga is gonna work for the government? thats how real people feel.

lets pose this question and see who can answer it intelligently.... (or maybe someone else will post another picture of me and try to avoid looking like an idiot by losing in mature debate, by calling me ugly and looking like an extra immature idiot.) I'm 26, now lets see all the big all-growed-up trolls respond:

here are three facts:
1. america locks up more people, and more black people than any other civilized nation.
2. the 13th amendment says slavery is legal in america as long as you've been convicted
3. thus, black slavery is alive and well in america

now the question is this, with the above stated FACTS, how can we possibly come to the conclusion that he isn't a fuckboy house slave?


he's a black president at the head of a country that enslaves blacks more than any other race. if you were half educated, and half aware of what goes on in the real world, you wouldn't have misinterpreted my comment and called me racist.... but I'm used to what i say going over the heads of mass media ensorcelled assclowns on the internet. i was in fact taking up for black people and pointing out that he is not loyal to them.

one more question to the dude that called me ugly, you must have went to my tumblr for the pic, now anyone that clicks the link for my personal tumblr and reads a lil bit or even browses the damn thing casually would never say I'm racist?.. so were you just talking out of your ass, its ok to admit it.

you 40+ people need to stop embarrassing yourselves trying to jump all over me, I'm the shit like you could never be and i laugh it off with posts like this where i pretty much drop a question that to answer, you would have to basically show your own stupidity. i never get a straight up answer. anyone can search my posts and see the times i pose a logical question after some stuck up douche drain like dude on this thread they either ignore me or say something like: I'm not getting involved in this. lmao you started it now you're not getting involved.

ive noticed lit attracts trolls. it seems that sexually frustrated losers with thousands of posts who don't actually have sex but just chill on the internet all day with their lil wrinkled white dick are so sexually frustrated they are way more likely to lash out than people on other forums.

oh and by the way thanks for viewing my pics, you might even be one of the people that "followed" me right around the time of your post. maybe, maybe not. thanks for the boost though, they say all publicity is good publicity.


speaking of loser ass whiteboys, i would like to point out the story going around recently (google it) of a loser ass whiteboy (probably could be a twin of half the losers on lit) who shot a bunch of girls because he said they were whores and he hated them cause he was a virgin. lmfao
roflmfao. thats why i could never be racist.. who wants to fuck with a loser ass whiteboy thats a 22 year old virgin.

roflmfao he probably had a lit account (holy shit that really made me laugh out loud.)

okay well, I'm gonna go melt a dab and eat breakfast. my ass is available to kiss at all times though, just use yahoo i keep it signed in on my phone<3
