9. That's because freepers get to post at Huff-Po longer than at the DU.
They're all over there reading their witty little remarks about "Obama, the half-rican" or whatever the hell Limbaugh said today.

7. He didn't have any choice..the House rules in this one.
All he could do was request a joint session of congress. He's not a dictator.

14. That's a little dramatic a headline
Edited on Wed Aug-31-11 11:12 PM by mvd
I think he should have held out for another day not Sept. 7 if he couldn't get Sept. 8. I like the Huffington Post but this just feeds into the M$M meme. And I'm someone who thinks he compromises way too much.

21. The gist of them, yes.
They all basically call Obama a wimp and spineless. Fair criticisms I agree with.

17. The picture is worse.
I'm surprised that right-wing eRag didn't just use a picture of Stepin Fetchit.
