Mitch McConnell On Barack Obama: He Can’t Get Anything He Wants. Those Days Are Over
Hot Air ^ | Nov 29, 2012 | Duane Patterson

MM: Well, it’s certainly true that they could get what they have claimed for years they wanted to do by doing nothing. They could get a big Defense cut, and they could get a massive tax increase. But of course, they don’t want to get a tax increase on everybody, only on the top two rates. Also, do they really think it would be good for the economy for all of this to kick in? I tell you, I think the fundamental observation I would make about all of this right now, whether it’s this totally unserious proposal from the Secretary of the Treasury or the attempt by the majority leader to break the rules to change the rules of the Senate, they’re strutting their stuff after the election. They’re still celebrating, and they’re having a hard time noticing that they don’t have a super majority stranglehold on the Senate, and they don’t control the House.

HH: Senator, there are at least nine, maybe ten or more Democrat seats up in 2014. You named some of them – Senator Landrieu, Senator Begich, but also Senator Rockefeller’s seat is up, Senator Hagan, you’ve got Senator Baucus himself, Tim Johnson, Mark Udall, Mark Pryor.

“...watch what is coming and it is communism.”

Kruschev said America would fall from within without a shot being fired.

Senator Joseph McCarthy was right.

My better half listened to a Lib radio station on the way home from work (just to hear the enemy)...

Hell! THEY’RE even calling Boehner an alcoholic lush!!!!

McConnell doesn’t realize how the RNC is hated...By his own party!!!

Boehner’s a lush and McConnell’s a fool. They’re good for nothin’. Even the commies know THAT!

My Mother was, I do not want to say a seer but what she made me learn has come to pass.
Although I am sad she was so very young when she died, I am at the same time glad she did not see what she saw come to pass.

To: Christie at the beach; All

You are right .
The big question is , how many of the critics on this thread have actually called McConnell and Boehner and told them to hold the line ? I see a lot of griping and assuming , but I have yet to see any of the critics on this thread say that they have made their voice and support heard ...
I have made my voice heard and I thank them when they do the right thing . It’s important that they know we are watching and supporting them when they do the right thing ...

I get the sarcasm.
But I was only eleven and my Mom was only thirty one when she died, of course I am more successful.......she never had the opportunity to be what she wanted to be.

[[Mitch McConnell On Barack Obama: He Can’t Get Anything He Wants. Those Days Are Over]]

Bull Shit Mitch- You aint seen nothin yet- The supreme court handed him the keys to do ANYTHING he wants REGARDLESS of whether it’s constitutional or not- This country voted to allow him free reign to do whatever he wannts- We don’t even have a supreme court to protect us from a rogue government anymore thanks to that traitor roberts- This coutnry is made up of peopel who DO NOT CARE abotu ANYONE but themselves- and hwo want freebies all day long regardless of how badly it hurts future generations and the dear leader will tap into that entitlement sentimentality and exploiut it to it’s fullest and there’s not a damn thing you will do about it because dear leader learned early on that you and the GOP have NO SPINE! Thanks for giving dear leader cart blanc privileges to destroy thjis once great nation mitch-

Even the commies know THAT!

My guess would be the commies would think any individual on the right is good for nothing no matter who you are.

Who ??

If McConnell had an ounce of self respect he would have resigned weeks ago.

In 2009 he said his #1 job was to make O a one term POTUS.
Well he obviously failed at his #1 job.
He accomplished nothing else this session, and in 2008 he rounded up support for TARP.

Mitch : Have you no shame?
