"Post-Partisan" O to Republicans: "I Won...Bitches"
Every single day for eight long years, I've had to see and listen to brain dead left-wingers, thinking more with their bile ducts than their brains, screaming about a recklessly arrogant president, not taking the opinions or concerns of others into account, belittling their points of view, etc., etc.
Our current president swore to change all that. He promised to be the "post-partisan" president, and vowed to listen to left and right alike.
A respectful president he vowed to be. A listener: A uniter, not a divider. A man not infected with the sickness of hubris.
That's why his behavior toward House Republicans concerned over wasteful spending in his "stimulus" legislation has me so confused.
The New York Post from Friday night reports that the president handled Republican objections in the typical left-wing fashion: When you've been called out for doing or saying something incredibly stupid, don't defend your actions. Instead, make some snide remark about the other person listening to Rush Limbaugh.
For one thing, when you want to take the taxpayers' checkbook and write checks for nearly a trillion dollars on an ecomonic "stimulus" that's only going to stimulate porkbarrel projects for unqualified contractors in Democratic districts, it doesn't require someone listening to Rush Limbaugh for that person to have doubts about the whole plan.
For another, when you want to do something as stupid as this, could it be that all the ideas or advice that Rush Limbaugh might wish to share couldn't possibly make things any worse than you're rushing to make them?
And finally, could you be a bigger fucking baby if you tried?
Can you imagine if your predecessor had handled Democratic objections to his economic policies by saying: "I won. I'll trump you on that."
Can you imagine the animal howls of rage from the Left if Bush had tried to dodge responsibility for his own proposals in such a rude and churlish fashion?
I can't imagine it, quite frankly. Because President Bush never said anything this childish or this reckless.
Not that any of this will matter to most of those few who hear this troubling account of President Obama's childish arrogance. For them, he will always be the "post-partisan" leader he promised to be, not the tyrant he actually is.
