designed, if used frequently enough, to turn voters away from Obama.

It's deliberate and, unfortunately, effective.

16. It was unfortunately
Edited on Mon Jul-25-11 09:02 PM by Proles
a rather weak speech, but that's what I expected.

I mean, he gives the repubs so much respect, but do they ever respect him back? Nooo!

After President Obama spoke about how they could still have a "balanced" approach, you have Boner coming in insulting him, lying, lying, insulting, and bringing up the healthcare bill randomly. Durr???

Yeah, they're definitely "balanced" alright. Why is he still trying to compromise with these repubs? Tell the American people that they are stupid children, and that he'll veto anything that isn't a clean debt cieling increase. If they don't do it? Well, the fault will be on the repubs.
