The President must be handing the Republicans thier heads on a platter!

[Peacetrain]

I do not have access to a TV right now.. but am getting pounded with emails from some right wing acquaintances about how bad Washington is..

This always happens when a mirror gets put to their faces.. they start marching in circles with their fingers in their ears.. na na nah a boo boo

The only thing on the horizon that would have stimulated this response at the same time is the President speaking to the Repubs..


:rofl:

1. Peacetrain, he skewered them. He totally kicked their butts.

It was a sight to behold. ;)

[gateley]

4. He continues to outdo himself. He was amazing -- nt

[Peacetrain]

12. That is good to hear.. can't wait to see some of it..

[gateley]

24. There's a clip up in Political Videos if you can watch it now. It'll give you a sense

of the tone.

[Peacetrain]

34. Thank you gately.. someone else posted also.. I will share this with my co workers at break

:hi:

[AlinPA]

14. I thought he was walking into an ambush, I was really wrong.

[Froward69]

28. So Did I... I think he saw it comming and

reacted with overwhelming Intellect... Almost like he knew what they were going to say before they said it.:patriot: :rofl: :patriot:

[Peacetrain]

5. I knew it, I knew it..

You can just tell.. :)

[lxlxlxl]

17. that was the most amazing display of presidential political power ive ever seen

and ive been watching longer than i care to admit.

[gateley]

2. He just spoke to Republicans and took their questions -- Maybe they are afraid

because he's making so much sense.

I know I was impressed, gave me hope he might really be able to open some dialogue, but Jay Rockefeller is on Andrea Mitchell right now saying he doesn't expect any real results from them. So tell your acquaintances all is well, the status quo stands, not to worry! :7

[Jeff In Milwaukee]

6. Pity them a little....

For the past months, they've had their hopes up about 2010. Maybe they come roaring back. Maybe they reclaim the majority.

Uh...maybe not.

I know the analogy is over-used, but it reminds me of the rope-a-dope.

[movonne]

32. I think he is getting results...we are all talking about it...and positive

for a change...

[lxlxlxl]

3. OMG....he just destroyed a year of their work in 30mins

god bless this man and i hope he gets closer to where he needs to go

[Peacetrain]

7. Desperation by the right is a beautiful thing to behold!

[gateley]

8. I was hoping that if the RWers listened to this, it would get them thinking, but

apparently that's not the case with Peacetrain's acquaintances! Jeez, if this didn't do it, I don't know what will.

[HopeOverFear]

9. Girl, it was a thing of beauty. Better than the WWF.

I cannot wait for you to see it.

[Peacetrain]

11. I did not think to set the recorder today... I will have to get it off of UTUBE

:hi:

[Lasher]

10. Obama was definitely in his element just now.

He was effective and he enjoyed it.

[Peacetrain]

13. Did they run it on FOX too.. please please please

[HopeOverFear]

15. yes they did, BUT.....when it became clear that Obama was kicking their ass

they cut away.

[Peacetrain]

19. Your kidding... that is so sweet! they actually cut away.. oh brother

he must have been good

[NYC Liberal]

22. Bwahahahaha, they cut away?

:rofl:

[HopeOverFear]

36. yes they did

[lxlxlxl]

16. read on twitter that they cut away...they knew how bad it made them look...

[Parker CA]

18. Total annihilation. Wrecked them. I'd love to be in the tank on the way back to the WH.

[Peacetrain]

21. Yes yes yes... This is so good..

[dmr]

20. and at the end they were asking for his autograph!

Just saw it on TV, he's trying to walk out, shaking hands as he goes along, and there the prez signing autographs for them!

:crazy:

[Peacetrain]

23. Oh my GOD that is so good...

[cilla4progress]

25. Nancy Pelosi is SO MEAN!

I love listening to the Repub response: now it's all Nancy's fault.

How conVENient!

(Go Nance!)
