GOP strikes back after Obama criticism: ‘Americans looking for leadership, not complaints’
UPI
Republican leaders fired back Saturday after President Barack Obama blamed them for holding up key legislation, including unemployment and energy measures.
In his weekly radio and Internet address, Obama criticized Republicans’ “dreary and familiar politics” that he said “get in the way of our ability to move forward on a series of critical issues that have a direct impact on people’s lives.”
Responding,House Minority Leader John Boehner, R-Ohio, said, “The American people are looking to Washington Democrats — including the president — for leadership on tough issues like jobs and spending, not complaints.”
Obama repeatedly took aim at Republicans.
Obama said GOP leaders are preventing a vote in the Senate on removing a $75 million cap on the amount oil companies are obligated to pay to people and small businesses who sustain economic losses from oil spills. He also criticized Republicans for holding up votes on 136 of his nominees to positions in the federal government.
“I know the political season is upon us in Washington,” he said. “But gridlock as a political strategy is destructive to the country.”
Obama implored, should be more productive and less partisan.
“Whether we are Democrats or Republicans, we’ve got an obligation that goes beyond caring about the next election. We have an obligation to care for the next generation,” he said. “So I hope that when Congress returns next week, they do so with a greater spirit of compromise and cooperation. America will be watching.”
Wild Thing’s comment…….
“What we need is a willingness in Washington to put the public’s interests first…”
What a total jerk! Every thing he has passed has been against the will of the majority of Americans!
“Whether we are Democrats or Republicans, we’ve got an obligation that goes beyond caring about the next election. We have an obligation to care for the next generation,” he said. “So I hope that when Congress returns next week, they do so with a greater spirit of compromise and cooperation. America will be watching.”
Loose translation: I need the Republicans to cave into my demands so my socialist agenda can move forward.
What a piece of work! I realy think he is insane.
America is watching alright.
I don’t remember Bush complaining or demanding when the Democrats stood in his way. obama is like a spoiled child. Or a short tempered king.
I think obama is setting the stage in case of failure. Even the democrats are getting skizoid, and are having a problem voting for some of these bogus spending bills. So obama is launching a two point plan. First, to try to rally Republicans to vote in lock step with the democrat ‘useful idiots’ and second, part 2, of the plan breeding the Republicans as the fall guy if his plan fails. Obama will never admit failure to anything, if there is a failure he always has a pre scripted scape goat ready in the wings to drag out and say, ‘you see this is why I couldn’t do this.’
Last time I checked, the Dumocrats had the majority in both the House and the Senate. If Obummer is afraid the bill won’t pass, then he needs to take a look at his own party. Obviously there’s more in this bill than just removing the $75 million cap and people in both parties are concerned about those other parts in the bill.
Could Obama Be America’s First Defacto President?
Innocent Americans increasingly are sent to prison based on false evidence manufactured by police forensic crime labs. Now President Obama wants the power to incarcerate U.S. Citizens not on evidence, but for what they might do.
Compare: Two days after the 1933 burning of Germany’s Parliament Building, blamed on communists, Hitler responded with a powerful speech before Parliament. Hitler asked Parliament to suspend sections of the Reich Constitution that protected Citizens’ Rights and Civil Liberties. Hitler said the suspension was necessary so government could protect the homeland from being destroyed by communists. Hitler promised Parliament the Constitution would later be restored. After Parliament passed Hitler’s Discriminatory Decrees and Hitler signed it February 28, 1933, Hitler immediately used the news laws to abolished Parliament. See Hitler’s 1933 Discriminatory Laws below:
Obama gave a speech in May 2010, that proposed incarcerating in indefinite prolonged detention without evidence, any person government deemed a “combatant” or likely to engage in a violent act in the future; that would include U.S. Citizens “without evidence of wrongdoing.” With that amount power Obama like Hitler could arrest members of Congress, drag U.S. Citizens off the street and from their homes to be imprisoned indefinitely based only on Government’s claim they are a “combatant” or likely to engage in a violent act in the future.
If Congress approves Obama’s categories of people likely to engage in violent acts, overnight millions of lawful U.S. activists could be subject to arrest, Indefinite Prolonged Detention. When you examine Obama’s speech, it appears Obama wants retroactive power to incarcerate anyone government claims (prior) supported violent acts on the premise that person is likely to support violent acts in the future: U.S. activists would be extremely vulnerable because no activist can control what another activist or group might do illegally they network with domestically or overseas. Government would only have to allege a person; group or organization might commit a violent act in the future to order Preventative Detention of lawful participants with no evidence whatsoever. Americans would be afraid to speak out. See: Obama Sound-Video http://www.brasschecktv.com/page/630.html
It is foreseeable any “individual” who writes on the Internet or verbally express an opinion against or entity of U.S. Government or its coalition partners could be deemed by authorities a “Combatant” or likely to engage in or cause violent acts: government too easily could claim an author’s writings inspired people in the past and will in the future to commit or support violent acts. It is problematic that indefinitely detained U.S. Citizens not involved in terrorism or hostile activities, not given Miranda Warnings or allowed legal counsel; interrogated, will be prosecuted for ordinary crimes because of their alleged admissions while held in indefinite Prolonged Detention. Obama wants the power to override the U.S. Constitution. Obama wants the power to detain indefinitely any American without probable cause or evidence, based on conjecture someone might do something violent in the future.
Obama similar to Hitler is centralizing power in the federal Government by getting passed legislation the U.S. government could potentially use to intimidate and threaten corporations among others. Hitler got passed similar laws shortly before the burning of the German Parliament building blamed on the communists. Immediately after the fire, Hitler used his new laws to coerce corporations and influential Citizens to support passage of fascist legislation that suspended provisions of the German Constitution that protected Citizens’ freedoms and civil liberties. Obama is now approaching a position where he can use similar new laws, including the Patriot Act and 200 asset forfeiture laws to seize any corporation or individual’s assets; and force U.S. corporations and other institutions like Hitler did to support legislation that threatens or curtails rights of Americans.
More recently Obama has moved forward to crush Free Speech, silence his critics by pushing passage of HR 5175: this abomination will choke the 1st Amendment, denying the right of free speech to ordinary Americans. Under Title II: groups like Gun Owners of America and other groups including bloggers that only mention “public officials” within 60 days of an election, could be required to file onerous disclosures–and potentially have to disclose their membership lists—despite the Supreme Court ruling in NAACP v. Alabama that held membership lists like those of GOA’s) are off limits to government control. Is Obama’s support of HR 5175 similar to what Hitler did to shut up his critics? In the run up to Parliament passing his police state laws including the 1933 Discriminatory Decrees that abolished Citizen’s Free Speech, Hitler employed thugs to beat up reporters, arrest anyone who had courage to criticize the Fuhrer or his Nazi government or expose introduced legislation. Is Obama by supporting HR 5175 to shut up his critics, trying to take America to the same place?
Alarmingly the Obama Government recently employed a vendor to search Internet social networking sites to collect information about Americans that could potentially be used by this government to injure Americans, for example, if you apply for a federal job, your name might be crossed referenced by the Obama Government with comments you made at Websites against Obama; or if you make application at a bank for a loan the Government has control since the financial crisis, could your Internet comment(s) prevent you getting that loan? Obama’s monitoring of the Internet sites can too easily be used by Government to intimidate Citizens from speaking out. Obama Top CZAR Cass Sunstein prepared a 2008 paper that proposed spying on Americans, infiltrating groups and organizations to obstruct Free Speech, disrupt the exchange of ideas and disseminate false information to neutralize Americans that might question government.

How this sort of inappropriate rhetoric and style is being tolerated is beyond me. (yes, I know amongst the serfs it is not, but the peanut gallery’s voice is often muted/scarificed for fear of WH failure perception). Let me just say we would NEVER EVER allow this sort of leader bully abuse at the local level: in city govt, in the schools, as neighbors. It is jaw-dropping, disgusting and sickening. The sooner this jerk vacates our beloved WH and DC the better.
Watching? Yeah, to see which RINOs not to re-elect in November!
Thank you everyone for your input.
