... Obama lectured members of Congress on Thursday on their responsibility to serve the country, urging them to negotiate with him on the budget and immigration reform instead of endangering the country with games of "brinkmanship."

Decrying the "pressure from extremes" he blamed for the 16-day government shutdown that ended Thursday morning, Obama said political opponents should instead try to affect government at the ballot box.

Yup. Reid, Pelosi, and Boxer are NOT extreme, but the rest of us are wife-beaters, arsonists, suicide bombers, anarchists, we hate America, we are unpatriotic, stingy, want people to die, want people to starve, and hate poor people. I love it when the opposition defines us for the media, and the media pukes out the venom.

Individual freedom to make choices for ourselves and our families is not an extreme, but is the way of life of America as it has been for for over 300 years. Republican law-makers need to SHOUT that at Obama, and not be so nice about it.

Marxism, as Obama is installing, with the acquiescence of Republican law-makers, is the extreme.

democrat obama and democrats are the extremist socialists/statists.

all we want is for the government to leave us and the free market alone. all we want is to live our lives how we want to ,to be left alone. that's called freedom and it's what we want . we want liberty and independence and for that we are extremists these socialists/democrats say. they say we are racists because we want smaller government.

when have we ever gotten anything? when has government been reduced in size ? Never. but they don't even want to talk to us . we have to secede now .we can't deal with these liberals/democrats. let them be slaves of the government in their stupid socialist utopia . i call for states to secede. why aren't more here calling for this ? why aren't our conservative leaders (Rush, Savage, Levin , coulter, Palin etc) even calling for the resignation of this Obama communist tyrant for his many violations of the Constitution and the law?

Who said "We have not yet begun to fight"?

I don't know. But Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce Indian Tribe once said, "I will fight no more, forever." And that seems to be closer to what our GOPe (RINOs) favor.

Well Obama has all the media creating a false reality for it so how can it lose?

there was never any chance of the default but the news media said it in a million headlines that we would default if they didn't raise the debt ceiling so everyone believed that lie.

I tuned into that diatribe this morning.

I kept waiting for his head to spin around and green vomit to blow out of his mouth.

Most divisive human being I have ever witnessed.

Carry on Obama...glad to see you are still your predictable self.

Oh by the way, thanks for removing any doubt as to who directed the IRS attacks against the Tea Party, Conservatives, your foes and the Churches. You are indeed transparent.

Obama has crossed over into ‘dictator speech’. Heaven help us all.
