Today in politics: McTurtleface: We want to destroy him. Prez: I will do what they want

Looks like 2016 is our next hope for a rebound

1. Do you have a link where Obama said "I will do what they want"?

[Doctor_J]

2. Gibbs said the president will be considering extending the hyper-rich-only tax break

[SunsetDreams]

3. Does that translate into "I will do what they want"?

[CakeGrrl]

5. ...but to cover the middle class, NOT permanent for the "hyper-rich"

Details.

:eyes:

6. How about this:

"If the far right, Chamber of Commerce bought congress can somehow figure out how to extend top-heavy tax breaks without exploding the deficit they were so worried about a week ago, we might consider it. Until then, we're not listening"

7. Context and Link and who are you quoting?

[Doctor_J]

9. Unfortunately, I am quoting no one

That's what I would like to have heard Gibbs say. Then, after he had everyone's attention, a nice next sentence would be, "McConnell's spoken objective is to destroy the president, so it's unlikely we will be taking many instructions from him or anyone else in the Tea Party"

4. This is how Fox news reports stories.....

like you just did in your op.

12. Absolutely false attribution of a made up quote. What's the point?
