Republicans Complain: Obama Never Woos Us Anymore

GOP leaders have a new complaint about President Obama: He's not reaching out to them nearly as much as he did earlier this year, when he road-tested his pledge of post-partisanship, only to get uniformly rebuffed on his first big legislative initiative.

OH !
I get it now. They are playing hard to get. After all those NOs I thought they were a bunch of hypocrites.

How did I get that wrong?

[jcko]

By taking the high road.

It's hard to see them R E P U G $ below the curb.

[filo]

LOL !

Good, Bush never woo teh dems when he was prez. SO, why should Obama kiss their butts? I don't get them all they do now is whine.

[claudiam]

Who cares? They drove us into the ditch and now this administration has to get us out of it - we do not need GOP rule or ideology. claudiatucsonaz

Why do they sound like Kate Gosselin trying to figure out why her marriage failed? "He won't talk to me, no matter how much I berate and insult him and throw temper tantrums when he doesn't obey me!"

[LetMeUnderstandThis]

Good analogy!

We all saw it coming, John was hen pecked

[oceanofconsciousness]

Maybe Obama figures you're busy with your rebranding pizza tour.

[BlackJAC]

Don't forget all the teabagging parties they throw to protest his command decisions.

On Politico message boards, Wingnuts are still call the POTUS Barry or community organizer. They're still begging for Sarah Palin to run in 2012. They have nothing to offer but comedy and obstruction. Good riddance to the GOP.

They are delusional if they think that people will rally around Paiin. I guess they want to go the way of the Whig party.

I guess they want to go the way of the Whig party.

"Barry" is RushL's juvenille denial of our president. Anyone who repeats it is one of his ditto heads.

[LiarLiarIraqsOnFire]

They're not funny, so all they really have is obstruction and smears.

Oops, I forgot that they also have mistresses, and hookers, and Congressional Pages, and anonymous encounters in public restrooms - that ought to keep them occupied for a while.

Do they realise that Cheney/Bush hardly worked "with" them, either? They made the facts support their own agenda. Do repubs. ever grow up? Kristol pushed for Palin as VP because she was a (runner-up) in a beauty pageant. Sanford is sounding like a lovesick teen. Maybe that former Miss California would be interested in being president next time? They are so childish, it amazes me. They think they should be in charge, with all the adolescent urges? Georgie acted like a teenager, too, dancing on the WH steps, drunk at the Olympics, no wonder they all backed him, he was their intellectual equal!! This goes back quite a few years. Remember GHW Bush moved into the WH along with his long-time girlfriend, Jennifer Fitzgerald. They all knew about her, but covered up for him.

[quasar]

That's because you're not woo worthy

[gemzenith]

This reminds me of the girlfriend who pouts because you "don't know how she feels"and expects you to just "know' if you love her.

This fellow has an ego that likes to complain about almost anything. Not long ago he was telling the Press the Obama's policies were terrible. And now his ego is complaining that he wants to be included in discussions on that which was terrible. One has to wonder what is up here..possibly just a chance to whine.

[Mabila]

Simply because you refuse to be woowable!!

[buggedabouttheus]

What is wrong with the Republicans? Why are they all delusional?

[okayigive]

Boo Hoo!!!! Do they ever stop whining? I think Phil Gramm was projecting (common behavior of some reps) when he made his "whiners" comment, he really meant to say "the reps are a party of whiner". By the way since some of the reps have a way of redefining and misusing words, here's one that can be added to your vocabulary. Bipartisanship now means a relationship between the President/dems and the "party of we the people". Translated to mean the majority of "we the people" don't care anymore about who work with who, we care about having our voice heard and getting things done to better our lives.

[Periwinkle]

Gosh . . . I wonder why. There's nothing better than working your tail off to get a meeting of the minds, actually putting some of their wish list in a bill, then have them uniformly vote "no." The Republicans must be the dimmest bunch of bulbs on the planet. They seem to think that because they lost the election, they get to run the show. It doesn't work that way.

Here, here Eric, have an ice cream.
