Obama caught on audio slamming GOP

[democracy1st]

Yesterday, President Obama delivered some of his harshest criticism yet of his recent battle with Republicans to fund the government.

However, Obama may not have intended for everybody to hear him.

While listening to an audio feed from a Chicago fundraiser Thursday night, CBS News reporter Mark Knoller heard Obama speaking with donors after other reporters had left the room. That's when the president really opened up about his disdain for the recent GOP pushback:

"I said, 'You want to repeal health care? Go at it. We'll have that debate. You're not going to be able to do that by nickel-and-diming me in the budget. You think we're stupid?'" the president reportedly said.

Obama also complained about GOP attempts to attach a bill to the resolution to fund the government that would defund women's health services provider Planned Parenthood.

"Put it in a separate bill," the president said he told House Speaker John Boehner and his staff. "We'll call it up. And if you think you can overturn my veto, try it. But don't try to sneak this through."

The president also made clear he is no fan of Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), the GOP's Budget Committee chairman.

"When Paul Ryan says his priority is to make sure, he's just being America's accountant ... This is the same guy that voted for two wars that were unpaid for, voted for the Bush tax cuts that were unpaid for, voted for the prescription drug bill that cost as much as my health care bill--but wasn't paid for," Obama reportedly said.

1. Ahhh, a voice of intelligence and reason...

Hardly "slamming" to speak the truth in a measured manner.

You want some slamming?

Don't get me started on the 'morals' of the Republicon extramarital diaper-sex with luggage handling faux lesbian rentboys in public urinals thingy. Because the rank hypocrisy of Republicons in that -- and endless other matters -- would send any honorable American into SLAMMIN JAMMIN OVERDRIVE.

2. I Hardly Call That Slamming

Though I'm glad he's speaking out. Think of all the nasty, ugly things they say about him
