President Obama said today that he is at odds with Republican leadership in Congress -- but not necessarily Republican voters.
What is he going to do when he has no CHOICE? Will he stick to the same "vilify and ignore" tactics that he's used so far?
PresBo's reason that he can't work with Republicans is based upon policy differences. He thinks cutting, as he put it, $4 trillion in taxes is irresponsible. Well, PresBo, many of us just happen to think that doubling the national debt in four years is a tad irresponsible, as well.
So far in his administration, he's had the luxury of a Democrat-controlled Congress, so he's bad-mouthed the GOP and basically ignored them to push extremely liberal policies and laws. The bad blood between them stems from that... But treat the minority party too badly, and what do you do when they regain the majority?
His entire strategy will backfire if the GOP retakes power in November. He will HAVE to work with Republicans and small-government ideas at that point. And if he continues demonizing his opponents... well, that little trick is already losing its power to motivate voters, so I don't think it will serve him well in 2012.
Get a clue, PresBo. You're not President for just the Democrats, you know. Start paying attention to the rest of us, dang it!
