Obama rallies Democrats with tough partisan speech [Full Text] | Washington Examiner

THE PRESIDENT:
Now, I believe -- I just want to repeat, because I don't want any confusion here. I believe that legislation of this enormous magnitude, that by necessity we are moving quickly -- we're not moving quickly because we're trying to jamb something down people's throats. We're moving quickly because we're told that if we don't move quickly, that the economy is going keep on getting worse, and we'll have another 2 or 3 or 4 million jobs loss this year. |
How am I tap dancing? What is the purpose of saying "The economy has shed 3,473,000 jobs since Obama took office." What possible point are you trying to make? That all those job losses are completely Obama's fault? That's being completely intellectually dishonest
and you know it.
The country is in dire straights, NOT because we elected Obama, but because of all the dimwits we've elected in ALL parts of government for the last 20 years or so. This silly squabbling is getting in the way of REAL progress from being made. You can't solve a problem without first
honestly identifying the what the problem really is first. Doesn't anyone care to tackle issues from a balanced and truthful perspective instead of exaggerations and half-truths?
I guess people would rather have politics operate like American Idol and Real Housewives of Orange County. Then don't bitch when things go pear shaped. You got out of politics exactly what you put into it.
