Obama:
Democratic voter apathy 'inexcusable'
So it's OUR fault that you refused to come to work?
Admonishing his own party, Obama
says it would be "inexcusable" and "irresponsible" for unenthusiastic
Democratic voters to sit out the midterm elections, warning that the
consequences could be a squandered agenda for years.
OMG!
Did he
really say that?
Hard to believe Obama would
use the word "squandered" after his two-year nap.
but he was too shy to use that power so his enemies rolled right over him? Yep, that'd be awful.
'"People need to shake off this
lethargy. People need to buck up," Obama told Rolling Stone.
He told Democrats that making change happen is hard and "if people now
want to take their
ball and go home, that tells me folks weren't serious in the first
place," he said with a straight face.
And now you're going to accuse US of not wanting to come to work?
Are you TRYING to piss us off?
Obama,
campaigning this week in four states, is in a sprint to restore the
voter passion that helped him win office.
It doesn't work that way. You've wasted all
this time kissing the butts of the Boner and the Bitch.
You turned your back on your base many times, even
sending out Gibbs and Rahm to scold us,
and after two years of neglect you think some last minute "sprint" is
going to fix everything?
Sir, are you brand-new to politics?
Don't you have ANY advisors who know politics?
That lady who said she was REAL tired of defending you
hit the nail on the had.
I'm not sure why you laughed when she told you the truth about how she
felt.
Is she the only person who's told you the truth lately?
The GOP is poised to
win seats in the House, if not control of the chamber, and gain ground
in the Senate, too.
"It is inexcusable for any
Democrat or progressive right now to stand on the sidelines in this
midterm election," Obama said.
Actually, what's inexcusable is having all that power and refusing to
use it.
The president has
been telling Democrats to "wake up..."
You did not say
that.
