A. I don't always push this bullshit; I've never made this argument here before. I'm sorry if it hit a hot button with you. B. Where did I say that the Democrats had a super-majority in Obama's first two terms? I said they controlled both houses of Congress. C. The point I was making, that both major parties have contributed to gridlock, has nothing to do with whether the Democrats had a super-majority in his first two terms. D. The President was awarded 4 Pinocchios from the Washington Post for his gross exaggeration of the amount of Republican filibusters his policies have endured during his presidency. http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs...filibustered-about-500-pieces-of-legislation/ E. The President's signature piece of legislation, the Affordable Care Act, was rammed through Congress during his first two years without making a single concession to the Republicans and in full opposition by that party. It passed Congress on March 21, 2010, a month and a half after Scott Brown came into office. I get tired of the point consistently made by Democrats that the Republicans were out to get Obama from day 1. Not that it's not true, but that it is any different than what Bush dealt with from the Democrats his last term of office. Washington has been broken for a long time. Both sides have gotten progressively more polarized in their views. The art of the compromise has been lost. The hyperbole and the vitriol has gotten worse and worse. Pretending that one side is more responsible than the other is silly, in my view. Unless the people see through the political crappola and start electing candidates who are more moderate and willing to work together for the good of the country, the country won't experience much of anything good out of Washington.
Reagan was a fucking traitor. Yes I said it.. http://www.c-span.org/video/?c4530075/reagan-admits-traitor
Reagan ADMITS trading arms for hostages! WTF? We aren't supposed to negotiate with Terrorists and REAGAN DID....
They didn't control both houses for 2 years, it was only 72 days. Even then, they didn't have 60 votes in the Senate because of the oil whore and the rat pelt. Republicans had a RECORD number of filibusters (112?) in his first term.
Nope. He sold missiles to the enemy and NEVER has dealt with any blowback from his supporters. Yet Obama negotiates with our allies and Iran and he's done something wrong?
Lmao!!!! I love how you spun this from Obama having a worst economy than Reagan when they became president, then you got smacked around. So you said "well fuck him because he's a traitor!" I guess you can admit defeat on the economy statement?
He actually armed and trained Osama bin Laden to fight against Iranians...then left Ross Perot's employees in Iran without helping to get them out...Perot hired his own team to evacuate americans
Is there anything these guys can say that will cause you to not admire Obama? I think they feel the same way about Reagan. They're not going to change your mind and you're not going to change theirs. I think it's great that all of you both admire Americans.
