Sorry but no. Obama decided to be petty and he’s now getting a long overdue smackdown. Sometimes turning the other cheek doesn’t work, they have to be punished. If this causes his team to think twice before pulling such a petty move again if for no reason then concern it’ll blow up in their face? Good.
We’ll agree to disagree. Obama changed the speech date. This is some stupid showboating by some politicians. This isn’t “punishing” anyone. He backed off the original date he wanted. Just remember the next time... IF we have a Republican president and an issue and the president wants a joint session ... what are you going to say if liberals say, “I’m not going to the Joint session ... I want to watch some football or have a Twitter war during the speech.”

You’ll say, “You are a Congressman/Senator and the president has requested a joint session ... so do your job and attend.”
