Obama’s Soaring Rhetoric Meets White House Reality

August 19, 2009 by B. Daniel Blatt

And one of the things that I’m trying to break is a pattern in Washington where everybody is always looking for somebody else to blame.

President Barack Obama

    Stunning. A conservative blog labels a liberal president with a lie that just happens to match the reverse of one of the president’s stated goals. Almost like they planned it that way.

    Sen. Grassley:

    When NBC’s Chuck Todd, in a follow-up question on the show, asked the Iowa Republican if he’d vote against what Grassley might consider to be a “good deal” — i.e., gets everything he asks for from Senate Finance Chairman Max Baucus (D) — Grassley replied, “It isn’t a good deal if I can’t sell my product to more Republicans.”

    So it doesn’t matter if it’s good. All that matters is what the GOP “feels.” Sounds like it is the GOP’s fault, and the GOP will vote against even “good to them” bills. Obstruction for obstruction’s sake. GOP 2009.

    A “good deal” to one person is not a good deal to everyone, even if they are in the same party. What is floating through congress (3200) is not a good deal. It limits our freedoms and will implode by bankrupting us. Medicare is going broke, what makes anyone think that further takeover of the medical insurance industry will be different?

    #1 – “A conservative blog labels a liberal president with a lie that just happens to match the reverse of one of the president’s stated goals.”

    What exactly is the lie, and how can you explain Barry’s backtrack from just 5 months ago, which is an exact quote?

    We’re waiting.

    Torrentprime, we realize you’re not capable of admitting Barack Obama lied or that the Obama Party ever does anything wrong. Hence, we don’t expect anything other from you than your usual shrieking temper tantrums about how Republicans are all Nazis, evil-mongers, and traitors.
