@DavidShuster: Obama speech tonight more confrontational with GOP than previously thought. He will blame sequester cuts + econ damage on them. #TAN
@DavidShuster: Now clear Obama sees previous bipartisan gestures as not getting him anywhere. Hardball politics in this speech. Dems will be pleased. #TAN

(7,044 posts)No doubt they will squeal like greedy 1% PuppetMaster Pigs as the truth is spoken, and pay their core of overpaid chickenhawk propagandists - Limbaugh, O'Reilly, Hannity, etc. to attack attack attack America, as usual, and apply their 'talents' to SUCKER the Fox-Watching RepubliProles. As usual. They better hope their rank and file never wake up to how badly the Republicans Eeleete have SUCKERED them to voting against their own interests.

Come to think of it, I believe that was a quote from Abraham Lincoln.

(5,937 posts)The Republicans are in the scorched earth phase it won't matter what tenor Obama takes in his speech they will seek to obstruct until they are no longer able. The midterms.

(1,397 posts)After Truman's election, the GOP then acted like the GOP today . . . No, No, No!! So . . . Harry got on the train. Truman took trains throughout the country, making stop after stop after stop. At each stop, he made a vintage Truman speech in which he laid into the Republicans.
There's a story . . . if it's not true, it should be . . . that at one stop someone in the crowd shouted "Give 'em hell, Harry!!" To which Truman replied: "I don't have to give 'em hell!! I just tell the truth and they think I'm giving 'em hell!!!"
I hope Obama has been studying Truman.
