"Perhaps the most gratuitously—and joyously!—dickish move of presidency"; PLUS Limbaugh apoplectic.

Obama Goes Mean Girls on GOP Field

In perhaps the most gratuitously—and joyously!—dickish move of his presidency, Barack Obama has scheduled a primetime congressional address next week at the precise moment Politico and MSNBC will be hosting a debate for the GOP presidential candidates. Have fun with your little JV debate club, bitches!

If you were on the fence about whether this was a tasty sweet move by POTUS, check out Limbaugh going absolutely apeshit apoplectic...

7. The thing that's great about this is ....
Here on DU, there is daily complaining that Obama needs to attack the GOP more.

And if you ask folks how he should do it, they often make recommendations that won't really go anywhere. Sure, we on the left will feel better for a few minutes, but the government won't do anything positive at all as a result. The GOP gets what they really want ... total inactivity of government.

So this is a great way to punch back some, but in a way that doesn't require that the government come to a halt in the process.

As thin-skinned as they are, they are probably spewing venom and inner organs over this. Because EVERYTHING is an affront to their crybaby sensibilities. Let 'em squeal.

11. Read this comment from John_C on HP! Love it!.........
http://www.mediaite.com/online/limbaugh-on-obamas-joint-session-request-no-genuine-president-would-do-this/

I never heard a peep from Republicans about Sarah Palin taking her bus tour through New Hampshire on the same day Romney announced his candidacy, or when Perry rolled out his campaign at the same event where Michelle Bachmann was at in Iowa. I guess it's only bad when President Obama does it.

..........

Oh Yeahhhhhhh!
:woohoo:

12. A thing of real beauty, the druggy wants Boner to say "no" to a joint session.
I also heard him at one point say to put Obama "in his place" ( another sensitive choice of words). Will Boner follow his masters voice or risk getting smeared like Limbaugh messes with McCain? I hope they just chew each other up, great theater.

14. So pigboy is in a dither
because the President of the United States (actually the only genuine one we've had in a decade) didn't ask Boner's permission to schedule a joint session about the most important issue facing our country. Boo fucking hoo.

16. Where are the noisemakers
who attack the President on the flimsiest of pretenses? You are conspicuous in your absence...or maybe you've swarmed to another thread in this vein that I haven't seen yet. Of the several I've looked at thus far, however, the 'usual suspects' are AWOL. Haven't dreamed up a classless rejoinder, yet, I guess.

23. so comparing Obama to "Mean Girls" is a good thing at DU?
the people that are enforcing dignity on all things said about Obama are loving him being compared to Lindsay Lohan?
