Obama: GOP Holding "Gun at the Head of the American People"

[PapaG]

First of all, isn't this the guy who lectured America on such rhetoric after the Tucson shootings?

Also, didn't a bunch of kids just get shot up point blank in a school last month?

He's an idiot when he's off his teleprompter.

In the final news conference of his first term, Obama said Republicans were threatening to hold “a gun at the head of the American people” and that he would not trade spending cuts, as Republicans demand, for an agreement to raise the federal debt ceiling.

The AP already scrubbed this line from their report after thousands of people commented on it. The WaPo will soon follow, I'm guessing.

This guy is completely out of touch with reality. He won't even consider spending cuts as a trade for a rise in the debt ceiling. How did this clown get reelected? Oh yeah... too many un-knowledgeable clowns were allowed to vote.

Just a year ago he gave an entire speech on national TV about stopping rhetoric such as he used today.

He's an idiot. Dumber than Bush, probably, if you actually measured IQ.

"Low-information voters"

Back in the day, they used to be called morons.

You are pretty much what I have as the typical "low information" Obama voter. Young, spend a lot of time on the internet trolling, and most likely don't have a college degree yet.

I'd think that college educated voters are more commonly Democrat. I'd like a breakdown of that.

Dunno what stats show now, but eight years ago, you were more likely Republican with each of these criteria: white, college-educated, Christian, wealthy, and a few others.

Maybe that's changed in these times, but that's what it was 8 years ago.

 

[TradeNurkicNow]

Too bad the republicans didn't suppress enough votes to keep people they disagree with from voting right?

is that what that is? hmm between bat shit crazy boy and the crotch rainbows..I dunno, I see no redeeming quality..

the higher the education level, the more likely [voters] are to vote Democratic.

Says the fan that thinks Rubio is going to lead Minny to a 50 win season.

Well when you have the majority of voters voting on race more than actual leadership; then yeah you are correct sir. Maybe the GOP will never get re-elected when people are blindly following like sheep.

 

[Denny Crane]

You know, there's no silver bullet to solve our problems. The Dems are going to target vulnerable republicans come next election.

Obama not only voted against raising the debt ceiling in 2006, he made a speech against it.

So his pathalogical browbeating of Republicans at this time over the issue is more of the same from Obama.

http://www.businessinsider.com/obama-voted-against-debt-ceiling-increase-2006-2013-1

Increasing America’s debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that ‘‘the buck stops here.’’ Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. ​

America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better. I therefore intend to oppose the effort to increase America’s debt limit.

This reminds me of what so many people use in everyday life. "Talk is cheap, actions speak louder than words". So far, the administration has propelled us further in debt and government spending doubled even war-time Bush administration. It's fucking insane man!

So the black people vote for the black person and the white people vote for the white person? wait, the white people also voted for the black person. Also the Latinos. Did black people vote for the white person? Nope.

So who is voting based on race again?

Like I said, didn't know current facts. Was just going off research we did back in like 2002-2004. I took a lot of poli-sci courses, and had worked on some smaller campaigns. Back then, supposedly, the higher the education level, the more likely you were to be Republican.

Funny thing, is.... I call BS. It should have been reversed, cuz it's the religious hillbillies that voted Bush into office (anyone who voted for Bush was clearly a moron), and I'd say less-educated people voted for Obama.

Oh geez. You're playing dumb again? Or did you forget the demographic split in the 2008 democratic primaries where it was statistically obvious that race played a HUGE role in the black vote.
