Pelosi: GOP just doesn't like Obama

David Jackson, USA TODAY 9:55 a.m. EDT September 20, 2013

Nancy Pelosi, the top Democrat in the U.S. House, seems to believe that Republicans don't like President Obama because they're jealous.

"You know why it is," Pelosi told Politico in an interview. "He's brilliant ... He thinks in a strategic way in how to get something done ... and he's completely eloquent. That's a package that they don't like."

Republicans also don't like what Pelosi called the president's non-partisanship.

Obama has been "open, practically apolitical, certainly nonpartisan, in terms of welcoming every idea and solution," Pelosi told Politico "I think that's one of the reasons the Republicans want to take him down politically, because they know he is a nonpartisan president, and that's something very hard for them to cope with."

1. She Is Right, Sir: They Hate Him, And They Hate The Country For Voting For Him, Twice

Punishing the people of the United States for voting for President Barak Obama is official Republican policy.

Understand this, and everything done by Republican office-holders falls neatly into place, without enough space to wedge a cigarette paper between the pieces....

2. They hated Clinton because he came from nothing.

They hate Obama for largely similar reasons.

And to add insult to injury, he's black. Think Duke & Duke from Trading Places.

3. Captain Obvious, Pelosi.

Not sure the GOP would like any DEM president just because he/she is not a Repuke.

5. Just now understanding this?

Their combined rage and organized contempt for President Obama motivates their every decision. It is called mobbing.

I'm sure it's a major inconvenience for them to even have to pretend to like people during an election.

13. Nancy, I don't think that's why they hate him.

It's much, much more superficial than that.
