At what point can we coopt the GOP smear "Obstructionist"?

[salin]

5.00 Gas Prices?

Fully Acknowledged civil war in Iraq - with the Admin sounding like they are about to push a nuke strike in Iran?

Evidence of the president saying FU to the Constitution - 750 times via issuing signing statements in defiance of congress and dismissiveness of the SC Court?

At which point do we take that sneering term used to paint Daschle into a corner by rove and say...

YES - I stand to Block Bush when he pushes policy that harms this country and the constitution...

D*mn Straight I work to Obstruct the will of the self-proclaimed "Decider" who lies to the public and pushes policies that benefit a few and harm many...

That's Me... working to get in the way the "It would be easier to run a dictatorship" president who has decided to act as a dictator in defiance of the Constitution - about which he took an oath (he seems to have forgotten) to uphold.

OBSTRUCTIONIST = One who works to prevent the president from presiding over more disasterous policies designed to take down America.

So maybe it is too extreme to take to the public - but if said in jest enough... perhaps the meme could take hold?

1. When they refuse to impeach a President who is above the law

meaning RIGHT NOW.

[barb162]

2. I think we should have started a long time ago using that word

at them. They are obstructionist against the American worker, American jobs, health care, against the American middle class,etc

[NI4NI]

3. they are obstructing freedom of the press

by threatening to indict reporters and whistleblowers for telling the truth about anything and everything that they classify as "secret" under the misnomer of "national security".

4. Obstructionism ... a good thing!

[salin]

5. Love the message!

Obstruction becomes necessary when they try to stip the Constitution.

[BLUSH]

6. re the Constitution

"Obstruction becomes necessary when they try to stip the Constitution."

Bush is the decider of law, not the Constitution. Didn't you know that?

:sarcasm:

7. At least 5 years ago.

[BLUSH]

8. KO just said President Clinton

issued only 108 signing statements OVER EIGHT YEARS. Bush has 750 in five years.
