POTUS problem on this one is that it’s technically Boehner’s invite to issueSince when did the Community Agitator pretend to understand protocol?

Perhaps your respect should be for Boehner, not the tea party on this one!

Obama screwed this up big time. He announced his speech date without first contacting the appropriate people....the rest is the fallout for his blunder.

They realized that they’d set up a referendum on the administration with the voters able to vote with a click of the remote. Once that got through their thick skulls they concluded the debate outrating the speech would be a disaster.

I don’t think so. Goodell and the NFL are on Obama’s team all the way.

Of course they will, there are many other networks who would be more than happy to show the NFL game.

Zero will always have his 34%, even if he was caught in a three-some with the Clintons.
