“Do not walk away from reform. Not now. Not when we are so close. Let us find a way to come together and finish the job for the American people.”
WATCHDOG: A brilliant political move. In one phrase President Obama jettisons a deeply flawed bill as approved by the Senate and places the blame for inaction on the Republicans. If they don’t come around, they will be branded as obstructionists, thus setting the theme for the November elections. The dog can’t growl or wag his tail from laughing.
Kindly remember that in ‘Obamaspeak’, the words “come together” really mean “I don’t care what you believe or your ideas are, do it my way.” A real winning formula.
