1. Rec'd n/t

2. Realistically What do you expect him to say? I want him to tell the Republicans to

Fuck off..but it ain't going to happen..

I think his best bet, is to say that he wants to work with Republicans..but spend the next 2yrs showing in actions how they don't want to work with Dems...it's called politics...its stupid how people are reacting to this

[tjwash]

4. He could try coming to work...and realize that if the economy tanks...

...even more than it already is, the right wing media will blame it all on the obstructionist democrats, and if it rebounds, the corporate media will pound in 24 hours a day that it was the repugs in charge that did it all in spite of the dems.

Wake up...k?

6. Damn if he does..Damn if he doesn't

He can't win

3. If your opponents act like ass holes...

...is the best recourse to imitate their behavior and immediately act like an ass hole?

Or, does one put up the appearance of being the better person, willing to "turn the other cheek" as they unload their dumptruck of hate?

5. I don't really care what he says...

But I do care what he does. I agree with Grayson and Paul Krugman. Obama's failure is lack of audacity, and lack of courage of his convictions.
His foreign policy is merely a continuation of Bush-Cheney policies...no wonder he did not want to prosecute them for war crimes.
His domestic policy is to let the right wing define the debate. Use their language, and try to appease them.
If he doesn't take a firm stand, he's toast, and I'm afraid so are we...

7. Go ahead try

We'll kick your asses into next Tuesday. You can play as many rhetoric games as you want, but you are between a rock and a hard place, so think twice before you bluster.
