I posted 0bama’s comments “in context” and the full transcript of today’s presser.
This President, with the backing of many house and senate members and ALL of the media, has taken a position that if Congress doesn’t act the way HE wants, HE will TAKE the authority from them. As if it is something HE has bestowed on them, and since they are being irresponsible, he will assume this power, reluctantly, to do the right thing.
This takes huge B**ls
But there seems no one that will call him on it.
It's not so much that people won't call him out, some do. The real problem is that Obama's approval ratings are high and the folks that know how bad Hussein is don't get near enough public support.
A lot of people here and in other conservative circles are furious that the House Republican majority isn't tougher on him, but keep in mind that 1.3 million more people actually voted for a Democrat House than a GOP one. Republicans only retained it due to skilled gerrymandering.
I think this all goes back to what passes for the American public now. Yes, leadership on our side is lacking - but it doesn't help that a near majority of the public feed from the government teet, pay no federal taxes, and generally couldn't care less what happens to this country as long as they can keep voting themselves someone else's money.
