“If they don’t pass the whole package, we’re going to break it up into constituent parts,” Obama said

Isn’t that sort of an end run around the Nuclear Option that Ried just did?

Hey guys, bring it!

If they do I'm afraid our guys will eat it.

I wonder how many consitutional offenses the republican leadership can endure before they get angry and start effectively fighting back.

Makes you wonder - who really is waiting for a payoff that makes Obama so desperate to free up some billions to send their way? It certainly is not about jobs.

Few of “my” guys are in there. Most of the republicans are Rinos. That’s why I’m no longer republican. They are a major part of the problem. The TEA party is really our only hope, but I think it’s too little and DEFINITELY too late.

I agree. His irrational behavior is starting to make him look like Commander Queeg. All he needs is a couple ball bearings. Of course, unlike Queeg who was a good sailor but a bad naval officer, Obama is bad at the fundamentals of his chosen trade and at leadership.

“..who really is waiting for a payoff that makes Obama so desperate...”

Campaign donors. I think Obama is having trouble raising money. Funny how much easier that gets after you spread around a half trillion of somebody else’s money.

One short sentance says it all!!! Obama is not all there!!! The man reacts the way all academics do when they are forced to lead and make decisions!!! They do nothing!!! In a nutshell, Obama is the supreme empty suit, useless. The great news is his Democrat party will go down with him, next Novemrber, 2012!!! Dems just too dumb to broom Obama!!!
