WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Barack Obama accused Republicans on Friday of holding the middle class hostage and defended his efforts to stimulate the sluggish economy as he tries to reverse grim election prospects for his fellow Democrats in November.
With opinion polls showing more Americans questioning his economic leadership, Obama used a rare news conference at the White House to hammer home a campaign-style message painting Republicans as obstructionist and the party for the rich.
Obama has been on the defensive as recession-weary Americans have grown skeptical about the steps he has taken to bring down an unemployment rate persistently near 10 percent.

He’s a farggen ice hole.
Did you notice how he had to verbally remind people that "I'm the President," and "I'm the Commander in Chief," so "I can (do whatever)"? He seems to do that quite a bit.
The American People have Rejected Obama and the Republicans are on the side of the people.... Obama doesn’t take rejection well...
Gulags soon...
So Obammy is blaming Republicans for his economic mess when they don’t even control anything in the Congress yet?
Let’s remember this. He’s jumping the gun - he was supposed to blame Republicans AFTER the Dems lost the House and/or the Senate. We can say Obama was blaming Republicans for his economic mess even before they were elected the majority.

Democrats! The party of pestilence & plague!
There is no surer way to waste your time than to listen to anything mac daddy has to say because it is, was and always will be a lie.
Yeah becasue they control so much power is Washington these days, right? Oh wait, democraps control everything in Washington these days.
He expects us to believe that? He’s nuts.
Yes, it’s true.
We Republicans love to hold any recovery hostage.
How did the president figured this out? I guess it must be because of his superior intellect, the one that got him those great SAT scores...
Republicans are more powerful than ever, considering libs have the White (can I say white?) House, the Senate, and the House, and the media. sarc/
He’s shooting the economy dead, not just holding a gun on it.
” The MSM will make up lies about Sarah Palin and report them as gospel, yet they won’t mention a word about Obama claiming the unemployment rate wouldn’t go above 8% if his Trillion dollar stimulus plan was passed.”
And 8% was sold as being something good...............
How about get back to 4-5% as a max. That takes leadership,
which he never showed, or ever will
zer0 has changed lying into an art form. He so far surpasses Clinton that old Bill looks like a boy scout. He paints and drapes his lies wherever he goes. He lies when it would be better for him if he told the simple truth. He even lies about his own lies. No matter what he says, always look for the lie, for it will always be there.
In all else, he is an inept buffoon, but with lying, he is the master.
/bingo
Obama only has the hard left now. Let him drown in his own lies ;-)
BOzo, why don’t you just go and have a pack or two out on the golf course and wait until November.
