I have to hand it to Obama he apparently struck a nerve with his presser yesterday

[WI_DEM]

the GOP and their enablers (Halprin) are resorting to calling him names ("dick"!!) and cry baby Boehner is accusing the president of burying our kids and grandkids in debt, conveniently forgetting that it was Bush who blew a surplus and caused the economic problems we have today.

I say to President Obama--keep on being a "dick" and as the deadline looms, I would say go on national television prime time in the oval office and give a speech which says:

1) A summary of what you inherited by the GOP
2) contrast private sector jobs created under you than with Bush
3) Explain that the GOP is holding the country hostage because they don't want millionaires to get a tax increase
4) Explain that they want to cut Medicare and Social Security but protect the Bush Tax Cut
5) Urge viewers to put pressure on the GOP to increase the debt limit and to allow the wealthy to share the sacrifice for the problems that the GOP caused.
