A senior Obama administration official said the president's first priority is to work with members of both political parties in Congress to "create jobs, grow the economy and reduce the deficit in a balanced fashion."

Barry, talk to your cabana boy, Harry Reid. There is a pile of legislation from the House on which he will not allow a vote.

Commie doublespeak, first says it’s his duty to work with both parties, then says when he can’t get his way he’ll just do what he wants without cooperating.

Indeed. Also, this schmendrick had BOTH the House and Senate for two years and did bupkis to restore positive economic momentum. He did find time to play golf...and blame others for his many shortcomings. My, what a leader!

But the aide also said if Congress remains gridlocked, Obama will press his agenda through executive actions.

We are a hair's breadth away from tyranny. I'd rather not think what Hussein will do when not concerned with reelection.

Well, right now, he's boosting the Hawaiian economy, in a few month's time, it'll be some other golf-course-laden state's turn, and so on.
