A President can deal with being disliked, even despised, by his opponents. But when he becomes a laughingstock among his own supposed supporters . . .
On today's Morning Joe, Dem Sen. Joe Manchin openly mocked President Obama's failure to communicate with Congress. Asked by Joe Scarborough whether the President is disconnected from the Senate and House, Manchin sardonically said "everybody has a different style." Queried as how often he talks to the prez by phone, Manchin sarcastically replied "I'm sure he's very busy." The panel had a good laugh at Pres. Obama's expense, until a mortified Mika Brzezinski couldn't take it anymore and declared "stop it: enough!"

When Manchin switches parties, I’ll believe he really means it.

Pound sand, Munchkin! You voted “NO” on repealing this legislative turd ... you own it. It’s yours.
Don’t like it?
Vote to repeal it.
Simple.

Munchkin is a liar, and a backstabber, and a hustler. Might be a cheat, but I can’t prove it. If he switches parties, it’s a scam. NEVER trust him.
To: Zhang Fei
I observe that today’s “Word for the Day” thread is “Mountebank”.
That’s appropriate ... they could put Munchkin’s picture on the thread.
To: Zhang Fei
He is just positioning—he’s a RAT in a coal state. RATS are killing the coal industry and want to take their guns away. He’s looking to distance himself because every day, he subverts the best interests of his constituents.
A RAT is a RAT.

One does not mock Dear Leader, Barack Obamination, without consequences, Senator Manchin (D-WV). How about the death of your political career?
To: Zhang Fei
Manchin is a liberal. We don’t want him.
