GIMME, GIMME GIMME!

Mark Knoller (and half the civilized world) agrees with me about the real message of Øbie's call for "bipartisanship". A few snippets follow (emphasis mine).

You can read the whole article here.

"It's a familiar refrain from U.S. presidents who can't get their way in Congress.

What these presidential appeals for bipartisanship always mean is: "do it my way!"

Mr. Obama said he "won't hesitate to embrace a good idea from my friends in the minority party." But he wants his way. 

When a sitting president calls for bipartisanship by the opposition – he really means surrender. And if they block his proposals, its "obstinacy" and not political views they hold as strongly as he holds his. "

And that's exactly how he's going to paint the Republicans when they meet later this month. And if they're not careful, some of it will stick. Hope they're up to the challenge of holding back the Resident's Progressive assault, and also making it clear it's about PRINCIPLE.

Read His Lips Redux

In a recent post, Read His Lips... I linked to an article about how the Obama administration was going to gouge the middle class through "backdoor" taxes, while pretending they are helping the middle class.

When I went back to the link, the story had been removed "by Reuters", as I then noted in an update to that post.

My GREAT readers have led me to the original text of the post, which can be found at Dump the Democrats.

And editorial comment about it can be found at Breitbart's Big Journalism.

Now you know...."the rest of the story!"

White House Withdraws Call for Students to Help President.

This administration is being battered from every direction. Because they can't seem to help doing really stupid stuff.

This is another good development...another good humiliation for the boobs in D.C.

It's also why we cannot allow them to do that next big thing: Shut down Conservative Media.

Without them...imagine what would be going on right now...

It's the most important issue of all. Keeping our lines of communication open, our lifeline to the truth...it's that line in the sand we cannot allow them to cross...at any cost...by whatever means necessary.
