Obama is nothing without the ACORN thugs by his side. This game is over if the (R)s don’t fold.

but he maybe bluffing that he is bluffing. It's the Double Bluff-Bluff.

I bet Obama was that kid that stuck his tongue on the frozen lamp post.

He would do the country less damage if he would go spend his time playing poker with tactics like these. Use your own money, though, Bambi. What a concept that would be.

Pass a bill and let Obama veto it. Then it’s all on Obama.

Why were Boner and his 3 Amigos even in the White House meeting with Obama? They should be in the House cutting off Obamacare and the EPA etc. Who are the biggest idiots? They went right out after Social Security instead of Obamacare. Now I care less how you cut it. That is just stupid. We need a 2nd Party.

If Obama admits that he’s bluffing, then the obvious thing to do would be to call him on his exposed trickery.

He just is not cut out for this. No teleprompter; call the bluff, you’ll win. Capitulate, you’ll have BO 5 more years.
