Champ to GOP: Just stop hating all the time.
2014-07-31
[Politico] President Barack Obama had some blistering words for congressional Republicans during a speech Wednesday in Kansas City, saying they need to stop "hating all the time."

"We could do so much more if Congress would just come on and help out a little bit," Obama said. "Stop being mad all the time. Stop just hating all the time. Let's get some work done together."

The president's speech to a crowd of 1,500 at Kansas City's Uptown Theater comes on the day that the House is set to vote on whether they will be moving forward in a lawsuit against Obama.

"Now everybody knows this is a political stunt," Obama said of the lawsuit, "but it's worse than that because every vote they're taking like that means a vote they're not taking to help you. And by the way, you know who is paying for this suit they are going to file? You!"
Beyond political rhetoric, this type of behavior simply happens a bit too often with our Champ. I suspect he's dealing with some very serious emotional wounds. Feelings of rejection, failure, loneliness, gender conflict, something is going on here.

#9  And the use of that word hatin'

Dropping the trailing 'g' makes you sound folksy. Obama is truly a Man of the People. Pass the arugula, please.

That said, I can appreciate his frustration. The other Great Men of History, like Stalin and Mao, did not have these problems implementing their agendas.

#4  Empty suit owing its position to affirmative action, white guilt and an entitlement mindset (sloth).

So far, it's working well, assuming you are not a citizen taxpayer of the United States of America.

#3  I'm not gonna read this article. The headline's bad enough but the fact is I can't stand hearing or reading anything this man says anymore. Never could really. He's just way in the heck too false.

#2  And the use of that word hatin' - juvenile, to say the least.

#1  God damn America - Rev Wright - did you stand up and object?
Gun-Toting, Bible Thumping, Bitter People - that you uttered?
The first time in my life, I'm proud of America - did you correct her?

Freudian projection all around.
