GOP pundits confused as hell now
They're on tv like "why did Obama do that to his own base, I don't understand?". Basically feeling compassion for liberals. Their "socialist liberal" talking point going down in flames. lol this is beautiful...Obama turned the partisan Washington world upside down...incidentally, exactly what he promised to do as a candidate.

16. Yeah, like Fight Club
Beating the shit out of yourself certainly confuses your opponent.

4. Watching Hannity last night was hilarious...
He had this stunned look on his face the whole time like "damn the socialist thing might not work anymore, what now". lol

19. because kooks like Hannity are tempted to cheer for the Presdient's concession to Repuke hostage
takers....you thing that righ wing ambivalence about how to criticize a policy which they love is a good thing?

I guess, so long as the President looks good--even if he looks good in Hannity's eyes--you can call looking good the right thing.

8. Too Funny, they don't want to focus
Edited on Tue Dec-07-10 08:54 PM by Kind of Blue
on their leaders' compromise in this deal. It's just too horrible for them to think about other compromises they'll have to make.
KnR!

14. Just like Clinton confused them with NAFTA

Remember he even sent Gore to debate Ross Perot who said it would cause the US to lose their manufacturing base.

Clinton did that a lot. Like signing on to the repeal of the financial regulations, welfare reform etc. There was still a segment who tried to ruin him but it gave him just enough to stay in office.

He couldn't change the GOP agenda but he managed to soften it a little. Obama will do the same.

18. He said people wouldn't always like what he did
He was hella right about that around here!

22. I think they are impressed how Obama could increase disdain from the
Right and the Left.

You don't see that everyday.

26. Listening to right wing media is gonna be entertaining...
I was watching O'reilly last night, and they were hinting at "triangulation"...and the look of disgust on their faces was priceless. lol

Its like they genuinely believed that Obama was incapable of pulling a Clinton.

Flashbacks of 95-96 just around the corner. lol
