An angry Barack Obama met with House Republicans today at their retreat in Baltimore and attacked them for voting against his very radical and failed plans for restructuring America. To their credit not one single House Republican voted for the gigantic Stimulus Bill, the record Omnibus Bill, and the Son of Stimulus Bill. And, only 5 voted for the democrat’s business-busting cap-and-tax bill and only one voted for Obamacare. Today Obama let them know what he thought about their lack of support for his radical agenda.
Look at how ANGRY he is while speaking to the House Republicans:
He called his health care bill “centrist.” …They got a kick out of that.
Obama told the Republicans, “I am not an ideologue.”
The AP reported:
In a face-to-face encounter, President Barack Obama chastised Republican lawmakers Friday for opposing him on health care, economic stimulus and other major issues.
Republicans pushed back on taxes and spending, and accused Obama of not taking their ideas seriously.
Obama, attending the House Republicans’ retreat in Baltimore, began with conciliatory remarks but soon became more pointed. He said a GOP-driven “politics of no” was blocking action on bills that could help Americans obtain jobs and health care.
In a sometimes-barbed exchange, he said some in the audience have attended ribbon-cutting ceremonies for projects funded by the stimulus package they voted against. Obama also questioned why Republicans have overwhelmingly opposed his tax-cut policies, which he said have benefited 95 percent of American families.
“The notion that this was a radical package is just not true,” Obama said. “I am not an ideologue.”
GOP lawmakers pressed the president to pledge to support a line-item veto for spending bills and across-the-board tax cuts. Obama demurred, saying billionaires don’t need new tax cuts.
Obama is not only an ideologue, he’s an ideologue in denial.

I’m sorry I can’t, I just got done yelling at the radio listening to Rush when he played this. I just don’t have the stomach for it.
pjean commented:
I hope no one is holding back their laughter when he contradicts himself. Sounds like it was a good laugh. This administration is mad because they need conservatives(or in this case, Republicans)more than they had hoped they would.
Sounds like he was his “uniting” self as always.
sandy commented:
I thought I heard laughter from some in the crowd of Republicans when Obama claimed not to be a Bolshevik. Bet he didn’t have a teleprompter to stop him from letting that cat out of the bag.
sandy commented:
As Rush said this morning this is the tool Obama is going to use in the upcoming elections. Its all the Republicans fault for not going along with what he wants. Gone is the kid with floppy ears whose voice was too deep for his skinny frame. Obama is now the tyrant in chief. When the Dems lose Congress in November it will be the fault of the American people. TOP OF THE WORLD MA.
Gloria commented:
Obama here is again accusing others, in this case, his audience of Republican lawmakers. Apparently he has never learned the basic principle that if you want to work with others, you cannot begin your dialogue by accusing, blaming, or hectoring the very people you are trying to work with.
Obama also sounds and looks very angry. Again, a basic principle of human relations is that you should not look, talk, or act in a confrontational way when your aim is to work together with other people.
No wonder he was unable to accomplish anything substantial when he was a community organizer. He simply doesn’t have the appropriate skills to work with others.
Skinner commented:
HE HAS NEVER BEEN IN THIS POSITION – NEVER, EVER, EVER.

During the campaign Obama said he would meet with the World’s dictators without preconditions. I guess he hates Republicans more than the Dictators.

I thought the House republicans did fairly well. But, I was screaming for someone, anyone, to call him on his lie that he inherited a $1.5tril deficit. The MSM will spin this as a positive, but, I saw anger, lying, backtracking, and doublespeak.
Glad I didn’t miss it. Now I’m not mad that I am iced in with global warming.
marie commented:
I have been thinking and saying for a while that Obama has ‘issues’ mentally. Yesterday, Rush Limbaugh said that he thinks Obama is delusional. And that is very dangerous for the nation. This tantrum will only reinforce what most people are beginning to realize: he is not qualified to be president.
CattusMagnus commented:
C’mon Jim. He’s not in denial at all. He’s just a liar.
Major Kong commented:
Of course he isn’t an ideologue. In just the same manner that a paranoid schizophrenic isn’t mentally ill. His delusional world is crumbling around him, so I think there is sufficient cause to watch him vigilantly. Such churlish, petulant behavior is indeed worrisome at best. He’s melting down and becoming a dangerous man. Better be ready to go with the rules of succession. Biden is certainly an idiot, but he appears to be controllable.

TheScribbler commented:
Obama is grabbing at straws at this point, trying to hold on to something/anything that will help him and his ‘historic’ delusions. It’s a like a gang of kids picking on other kids in the school yard. Everything is okay until a bigger kid comes in and takes up with the little guys. The American people took up with the little guys and now the bullies don’t have the numbers. Now they are using a different strategy….make friends. Too little, too late. You can’t step on people, alienate and disregard people for years and then all of a sudden think that they are going to work with you. The Right needs to be the party of NO! They need to keep saying it at every turn. The Left is already making it sound like saying no is a bad thing, the Right’s leadership needs to embrace it not denounce the fact that they are willing to stand up and tell Obama, Pelosi, Reid and the rest, NO! Because that is exactly what the American people are saying with each Tea Party and every recent vote. JUST SAY NO!
jorgen commented:
And they call him an orator? Ha!
“I’m not a Bolshevik” is as true as Clinton’s “I did not have sex with that woman”.
Tregonsee commented:
If I were a bookie, I would not be giving better than 50-50 odds that he will finish his first term. There is just something “off” here, in the Nixonian sense. Even having the MSM on his side will not compensate for that.
Lily commented:
Bolshovic Plot?
Anyone can go to Youtube and see Obama express his preference for a single-payer healthcare system. Then express his understanding that the people are “afraid” of this “change”. He says we are going to have to go in steps over 5 – 10 years.
And we can read where reviews of the Obama – Pelosi healthcare bill report that the structure of the bill can be seen as a first step to a single payer system as it will, over time, destroy the private healthcare insurance system.
The phrase “Bolshovic Plot” is funny – but one could make the argument that this plan is certaintly very statist.
Anon E. Mouse commented:
@Tabbysmom,
Yes, he really does need a teleprompter. Squinting at his cheat sheet that the puppetmasters prepared, scanning for answers while the questioners were asking, was anything but satisfactory. Searching for a coherent thought only made him angrier than he already was. He is pathetic when it comes to thinking on his feet. Watching his discomfort made me LOL.
Auntie Em commented:
The Republicans KNOW exactly what they are doing!! They are giving the Won a podium and some rope. Make him address his failures. Let him blame everyone else for them, as the noose keeps gets tighter and tighter.
The GOP showed the masses today what a fool Obama truly is. Good for them. This is another Red Bull for the conservative movement.
Come November, Obama will have hung himself and all of the dead democratic careers will he lying under his feet. Solid B+ Obama!!!

Drider commented:
How nice of Obama to come to this meeting and try to run the Republican’s core stance which is naturally the direct opposite of a Bolshevik like yourself.
It is becoming increasingly obvious after this meeting where he spent all his time tearing into the Republicans, trying to set up a pathetic campaign that will revolve around the Republicans being the “NO” party, that he doesn’t have a clue that it will all be for naught.
The reason it will not work is precisely because the majority of Americans, even those within his own party see him as a Bolshevik……For real.
Joanne commented:
Obama is sick of conservatives opposing his plans to fundamentally change America. How dare they! Don’t they know what is good for them!
Obama is realizing that it is hard to pass the bullcrap when you have millions of people pointing out what are in bills that he would rather no one read.

Is it any wonder that such a nut loves Acorn?
JonahVark commented:
Why was the PRESIDENT’S STAFF involved in writing the Senate health care bill but duly elected Republican Senators were locked out of the process? “
Every fifth grader knows the U.S. Constitution requires a separation of powers through the three branches of government, the Executive, the Legislative and the Judicial. The Legislative Branch has the responsibility of making the laws. Would it be appropriate if a Supreme Court Justice took part in the process of writing a bill or intimidated a Senator to vote for the bill? Of course not! Then the present administration has overstepped their authority. This may have occurred in past administrations but for the sake of righteousness and adherence to the Constitution, it must stop NOW! The entire process of this bill is a violation of the Constitution and it should be thrown out.
Who can stop this legislation NOW before it progresses into mayhem and revolution?
PLEASE WATCH ! AT ABOUT 5:30 IN DEMINT TALKS ABOUT BEING LOCKED OUT OF NEGOTIATIONS – Bill O’Reilly: Sen. Al Franken Insults Joe Lieberman – 12/18/09
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=weSG_980i9s
DEMINT: We’ve been debating for two or three weeks now but they’ve been developing the real bill behind closed doors and Harry Reid and his office…
O’REILLY: Who is they? Harry Reid and who else is in there?
DEMINT: His staff, the PRESIDENT’S STAFF and they’re bringing different members in, seeing what they need, threatening to take their air bases, giving money to Louisiana. It’s become a bag of, I think, political promises and bribes. I mean I’m afraid I’m very cynical about the process. A bill of this magnitude and importance should be out for weeks before we have to vote on it. But they’re going to bring it out in the next day or two and Harry Reid will immediately file cloture to end the debate as soon as we see the bill. So we’ll have a couple of days to decide about it and it takes weeks to study these bills when they’re that big. Bill, this is outrageous. It’s not anything like a real democratic process here. I frankly think it verges on tyranny. I just hope Americans will look up from their Christmas shopping and see what’s going on here.
O’REILLY: Alright, so you haven’t seen the final bill. It’s changed from the initial 2000 bill that was a couple of weeks arrived upon. You’re saying that it’s Harry Reid and some of the President’s guys are behind closed doors doing this, that and the other thing. They’re going to throw it out there over the week end to you. You expect to get that big package, this thing, over the weekend. Is that what you expect?
DEMINT: Yeah, the next day or two and when we say we want to take a day or two to read it, they’re going to say Republicans are obstructing again, as they’ve been saying all along.

As if, in the last year, he has made any attempt to negotiate with Republicans in any way.
Obama made it clear; either Republicans go along with his plans to Chavez this nation, or they will continue to be shut out as long as Democrats hold control.

But when a Republican that drives a forrest green pickup truck takes Ted Kennedy’s seat in a deep blue state like Massachusetts pledging to the 41st vote against cloture, the world stops.

Malignant Narcissist
-The narcissist is haunted by the feeling that he is possessed of a mission, of a destiny, that he is a part of fate, of history. He is convinced that his uniqueness is purposeful, that he is meant to lead, chart new ways, to innovate to modernize, to reform, to set precedents, to create. Every act is significant, every writing of momentous consequences, every thought of revolutionary calibre. He feels part of a grand design, a world plan and the frame of affiliation, the group, of which he is a member, must be commensurately grand.
-That which has cosmic implications calls for cosmic reactions. A person with an inflated sense of self-import, reacts in an exaggerated manner to threats, greatly inflated by his imagination and by the application of his personal myth.
-the narcissist will not hesitate to put people’s lives or fortunes at risk. He will preserve his sense of infallibility in the face of his mistakes and misjudgments by distorting the facts, by evoking mitigating or attenuating circumstances, by repressing the memories, or simply lying.”

I was miffed earlier in the week when I heard that Boehner invited Obama. I thought it gave Obie too much opportunity to tack to the center and “pivot” but as we’ve seen Obie doesn’t really want to do that. I was afraid of it looking like the GOP wants to work w/Obie’s radical plans. But as Obie doesn’t want to moderate, let the GOP look gracious by inviting him.

As if being told by an Ivy League grad using a multi-syllabic vocabulary makes the lie credible or even attractive, not. LOL at the illustrious stupidity coming from this administration. They wasted their tuition money if it was a classical education they wanted bestowed upon them from Marxists.
Given Obama’s penchant to promise the opposite of what he delivers, “I am not an ideologue” translates as ‘I am that I am’ an ideologue.

How fitting. POTUS feels stung by the same naming game he plays. I wonder… is he “resilient and decent” enough to endure being labeled an IDEOLOGUE and as such, dismissed? He & his acolytes have crudely labeled townhallers, tea partiers and most anyone who dares disagree,dismissing them again and again. So man up, POTUS. Prove the label’s wrong by your work and not just your words just like we folks in the real world do each day.

As has been pointed out ad nauseum, the Republicasn aren’t hsi proiblem. They don’t have enough power to do anything. It is members of his own party who have resisted his attampt to force his very unpopular health care takeover on the American people. His definition of bi-partisanship is for Republicans to do what he tells them to do.

The Republicans were just eager to clean the floor after Obie left his big huge piles of steaming biological waste matter on it.
Telling a long string of lies in an obnoxious, hectoring, threatening way is not winning an argument. Little Barry thinks he was elected to be dictator-for-life, just like his pal Hugo Chavez, and he can’t stand the slightest resistance or criticism.
The American people are coming around to where they’ll vote for almost anyone just to get the Bolshevik brat off our backs and send him back into the obscurity that he so richly deserves.

Liberty Counsel (LC), a pro-life and pro-family legal group, released a 72-page report on Wednesday detailing information on each of the nominations and appointments of President Barack Obama.
The document provides information on more than 100 of Obama’s appointments and nominations. It includes more than 850 citations to articles, websites, and cases regarding each of the individuals and, according to LC, took weeks to compile.

gus – Yes I have heard that spin before on this site. The fact still remains that Obama was masterful at getting Republicans to write the attack ads against themselves.
Unless they follow through on their earnest pleas for jobs for Little David’s dad and to be included in health care reform then its going to be tough to run against these things as radical Democratic policies in 2010 and beyond. Especially since now they are going to have to participate or face the attack ads in 2010.
You might remember that last month’s Democratic forum was not open to the cameras.
The issue here is winning and maintaining power. Obama scored today. He stood there for over an hour and knocked down every conservative talking point, live and in color.

If Obama does not believe he is an ideologue, he truly is delusional. He is such a far left ideologue that it would be impossible for him to be a uniter any more than a far right ideologue could be. He proved beyond any doubt at the SOTU speech that it will be an exercise in futility for Republicans to compromise with him on much of anything. He is in total denial that the policies he is trying to pursue are the problem and not Republican objection to those policies. Rather than kow tow to this buffoon, Republicans need to seize the moment because most Americans are with them as evidenced by recent elections.

What a smackdown the House Republicans got. They came armed with their weak talking points and Obama dismantled them one by one, all without a teleprompter, I might add. He was large and in charge, so much so, Fox News quit broadcasting it.
Now all you can say is “Angry Black Man”. You guys just put it on auto spin.

Sorry, sherry dear. Your lil guy was not in charge or command of anything. In fact, he was about to act out so badly that he would have started drooling and crying. Your lil fella is a l-o-s-e-r.
And, sherry, my dear – you obviously haven’t reached the racial maturity of chrissy (tingles) matthews. Even he was able to forget that obama is black (or at least 6% so) for an hour. You, evidently, dwell on that constantly.
No one had mentioned d’ohbama’s race until you did so.

Obama’s Corporate America..
A surge in corporate donations for Democrats
Wall Street Is Big Donor to Inauguration
Obama secret Pharma 3 6 trillion dollar deal
Obama, NYT wail over Supreme Court decision on free speech
[t’s worth pointing out that Barack Obama had an opportunity to limit that influence in the 2008 election simply by remaining in the public matching fund program that every major Presidential candidate had used since Watergate. In fact, Obama himself pledged to do just that in 2007 and again in early 2008, but changed his mind in June when he discovered that he could raise a lot more money than his opponent — by currying favor with Wall Street and the unions, as well as ethanol companies and a host of corporate-sponsored, lobbyist-run PACs. Obama raised over $600 million in 2008 for his eventual victory.
[..]
And what about influence? Well, those same laws restricted unions, which can also now spend its money in the open. Did that mean that unions had diminished influence before this week? Er, no. The week before this decision, union leaders attended backr0om-deal meetings on ObamaCare, demanding (and getting) a five-year exemption on the “Cadillac tax” on health-plan benefits. That would have saved them $90 billion over ten years, far more than what they’ve spent in the previous decade to buy their way into the halls of power.]
