GOP Takeover of Congress Would Mean 'hand-to-hand combat,' Obama Warns
GOP takeover of Congress would mean 'hand-to-hand combat,' Obama warns
Reporting from Washington — A Republican majority in Congress would mean "hand-to-hand combat" on Capitol Hill for the next two years, threatening policies Democrats have enacted to stabilize the economy, President Obama warned Thursday.
Speaking on Michael Baisden's syndicated radio show, Obama also made a direct appeal to African Americans about the importance of the November vote, even though he's not on the ballot himself.
"The reason we won [in 2008] is because young people, African Americans, Latinos -- people who traditionally don't vote in high numbers -- voted in record numbers. We've got to have that same kind of turnout in this election," he said. "If we think that we can just vote one time, then we have a nice party at Obama's inauguration, and then we can kind of sit back and suddenly everything's going to change – that's just not how it works."
Everybody in the barbershops, the beauty shops, and at work -- everybody's got to understand: This is a huge election," he said. "If we turn out in strong numbers, then we will do fine. If we do not, if we are depressed and decide, well, you know, Barack's not running right now, so I'm just going to stay home, then I'm going to have my hands full up here on Capitol Hill."
Obama said a big voter turnout was vital, both to counter millions of dollars being spent by outside groups and the enthusiasm Republicans have demonstrated.
"They are fired up. They are mobilized. They see an opportunity to take back the House, maybe take back the Senate," he said. "If they're successful in doing that, they've already said they're going to go back to the same policies that were in place during the Bush administration. That means that we are going to have just hand-to-hand combat up here on Capitol Hill."

Wild Thing's comment..........
"Obama also made a direct appeal to African Americans about the importance of the November vote..."
When is the post-racial president going to address the white people?
“...policies Democrats have established to stabilize the economy”
Is he kidding?
"If they're successful in doing that, they've already said they're going to go back to the same policies that were in place during the Bush administration. That means that we are going to have just hand-to-hand combat up here on Capitol Hill."
This is unheard of. An American President advocating actual war between Parties. Ad you KNOW his evil minions will take this literally. Obama is setting the tone for violence from his people toward GOP voters. sheesh

So once again obama proves he is a racist. He must be living in hell knowing he is half White. Even though he rejects his White heritage, he still has to live with it. Poor obama the Whitey.

A President of the United States using race and class warfare to win elections. That's what happens when the people elect a man-child as president.
War between Republicans and Democrats? Who buys the overwhelming majority of guns in America? You can safely bet your life it's not Democrats.

It appears that Barry Sotero, is what all of us have been saying all along. Another sorry loser, who when confronted with adversity, whips out the race card.
It may work for the likes of Maxine Waters, Charles Rangel, and other members of the Black Caucus. They know that they will get positive response from their gerrymandered districts.
Barry is talking about a National referendum, which according to all the polls has been turning against him for quite a while.
Barry, the community organizer is going down and he knows it, why else would so many Democratic candidate be distancing themselves?

To be perfectly truthful, I'd enjoy some hand to hand with that 1/2 breed hermaphrodite. And I guarantee he would lose badly.

Barry is nothing but a loud mouth. All mouth and nothing to back it up with. As Tom says, he's only Half White and the other part is like the Duck, ' Half-Black'.
You know the missing part must be where the rythim comes from.

Eh, so what? Politicians aren't supposed to get everything they want; we have limited gov't with checks and balances.

Warning I'm from a mixed family. My father’s family is a hundred and fifty years of republican doctors, they did vote for William Henry Harrison when the choice was Democrats or Whigs. But my mother' side of the family... well they are the Gores.
That side of the family votes a solid democrat ticket and my mother’s cousin has thirty long guns in racks around the house. I do not know how many pistols, two trank pistols for whatever reason. I'm sure that not all retired NEA members are that heavily armed but there might be more ammo out there than you would think,
