Is he going to chide both sides, again?

How much exactly do the Republicans need to do for him to actually stop pretending this whole thing is a he said/she said kinda disagreement?

:wtf:

1. "Chide both sides?" The MSM does that, not the President.
You must have missed his recent press conference updates.

you love him no matter what he does. i voted for a Democrat and I get pissy when he acts like something else and acts like he's ashamed of us.

3. No, he's going to do what he always does. Give them exactly what they want
Options for defense cuts (of any real consequence) won't be in the deal.

4. Yeah, Republicans are SO HAPPY about HCR and Wall Street reform that they want to repeal both!
Boy, that President Obama sure knows how to give Republicans "exactly what they want"! :sarcasm:

5. Sounds like Pelosi and the progressive caucus might be the one to scuttle it.
If they do, they will be responsible for the default and the economic disaster that comes from it.

I'm sick to death of every one of these fucking assholes in Congress.
