CBS News’ Bill Plante on an open mic that caught President Obama at a Chicago Fundraiser the other night telling donors about how he handled Republicans during heated negotiations with the GOP over the Budget Deal last week.
Reporters had left the room, and Obama did not know he was being heard over an open mic. He tells the donors:
“I said – ‘You want to repeal health care? Go at it. We’ll have that debate. You’re not going to be able to do that by nickel-and-diming me in the budget. You think we’re stupid?’”
He later is heard saying that he told the Republicans not to try to “sneak” their agenda through by attaching riders to the budget bill.
“Put it in a separate bill,” the president said he told House Speaker John Boehner and members of his staff. “We’ll call it up. And if you think you can overturn my veto, try it. But don’t try to sneak this through.”
CBS Radio News White House correspondent Mark Knoller heard Obama’s remarks, which the president perhaps did not realize were being relayed by the microphone he was using to the White House press room on an audio feed.
Obama is an expert at “sneaking” things through against the will of the American people. That’s how they got ObamaCare passed in the first place. His political career began through a sneaky act, by getting his challengers thrown off the ballot on technicalities so he could win.
Obama also made clear he is no fan of Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), the GOP’s Budget Committee chairman.
“When Paul Ryan says his priority is to make sure, he’s just being America’s accountant … This is the same guy that voted for two wars that were unpaid for, voted for the Bush tax cuts that were unpaid for, voted for the prescription drug bill that cost as much as my health care bill–but wasn’t paid for,” Obama reportedly said.
Wild Thing’s comment……..
You think we’re stupid?
Is that a trick question? heh heh
I bet his handlers are freaking out daily when he is in public.
You know what, I think obama is coming unglued and his handlers know it. Too many lies, scams, kinetic responses, and he’s newspoke himself into such a frazzle that he has no idea what he really thinks besides hate and which way is Mecca.
By the way Obambi is acting, you gotta wonder if he thinks Mecca is located several feet up his lower colon, cause that’s where this filty bastard’s head is constantly planted.

Truth be told, this 1/2 breed poser needs a 2X4 laced with rusty nails slapped upside his ugly face to wake him up to whats really going on.
Arrogant, self-serving, Narcissitic Son of a bitch. He’s tough alright like a two bit steak, the only way to handle that is throw them both out. In the garbage where they belong.
Let us not become irrational.
No Mr. Obama we do not think you are stupid. We know that you are stupid. I have known since your first speech to a joint session of Congress after you were sworn in as President. When you said that “the country that invented the automobile would never abandon the automobile” I knew. That country was Germany, Mr. Obama.
A prepared address to a joint session of Congress has to be reviewed by every member of the administration. Having not even one smart person on staff is really stupid.
It’s the transperancy we have all been promised!!! NOW we see; yet we knew all along. Let the sunnnnnn shine in, brutha!!! Oh how I dislike this jerk!!! ;/
Love all your input, thank you so much.
