The bullies in the White House
The American Thinker ^ | March 10, 2010 | Ed Lasky

Many people have wondered why Barack Obama and his team seem to have a soft spot for tyrants. Was it just the anti-Americanism and radicalism imbibed by Barack Obama from his youth and stoked by the ministrations of his minister, Jeremiah Wright and by his pals and comrades such as Bill Ayers and Rashid Khalidi? Or was it just the fad found in academia where Barack Obama has spent so many years?

But maybe it is something else entirely. Maybe Barack Obama just likes their style - and we know this is a man who appreciates style because he seems to be emulating their tactics and strategy. He scolds unfriendly media (i.e, media that tells the truth, such as Fox News), attacks businessmen and uses them as straw men, rails against financiers, places lawyers at the Department of Justice who will do his bidding; fires whistleblowers, such as Inspector General Gerald Walpin who want to do the people's business and not the President's business; and taunts people that he can sic the IRS on them (Richard Nixon has been reincarnated). Barack Obama is getting the hang of "governing" by learning from the worst of the worst.

Bullies can be handled. Fools and stupids are another story.

Just heard on Fox News that Pelosi, Reid, Emanuel, and the Parliamentarian are meeting at the WH.

Emanuel is quoted to have said a few minutes ago that tremendous progress has been made.

Judge Robert's please answer your red phone. Don't let them do it.

So this is more about how they’re just going to make up all new rules to do it, and then the Parliamentarian gets his wife and kids back?

I am afraid the parliamentarian is going to give the green light on simple majority.
