From the NY Daily News:
We could call it doubling down on a mistake. Or drawing a partisan line in the sand. But this is Barack Obama and his favorite movie is – I’m not making this up – “The Godfather,” so let’s stick with the mob theme.
The Obama Family is going to the mattresses.
With his charge that critics of his health care overhaul are “bearing false witness,” the holy roller President has declared war on the GOP. It’s another sign his White House can’t shoot straight because Obama is unloading on the wrong target.
Republicans don’t have the votes in Congress to block anything, so they can’t possibly be the sticking point. Democrats have huge majorities in both houses, but it is centrists and conservative Dems blocking the health bills.
The rest is equally brilliant. Go read it.
The sad part is that we’ll never have a shot at any kind of universal health care plan with a GOP administration and yet here we have our President essentially handing a victory to those opposed to it simply because he isn’t listening to the every day Americans who don’t want this plan.
He’s ignoring the people like me who are sounding the alarm about the bill and its weaknesses.
In fact, he’s ignoring everyone, and dismissing anyone that disagrees with him as a fear monger and an organized instrument of the GOP.
It’s sad.
