Sure, we’ll work with you. If by “working with you” you mean you working with us.
Via William Teach, what I can only assume is a misstatement by President Obama. Or, failing that, some sort of delusion:
“It may be that regardless of what happens after this election, they (Republicans) feel more responsible,” (President Obama) is quoted saying in the Sunday edition of The New York Times Magazine,
“…the American people are going to be looking to them to offer serious proposals and work with me in a serious way.”
Bill finds that an odd thing to say:
That’s funny, because I believe the reason there will be a wave of Republicans elected is because Americans want the GOP to block, stop, and roll back the Obama/Democrat agenda. They do not want the GOP to work with Obama, they want Obama to work with the Republicans to fix the issues…
Let’s give the president some credit, at least, for understanding the words coming out of his own mouth. A Republican wave in November will most emphatically not mean the American people want Republicans to “work with” the president and his agenda.
Clearly, that can’t be what he means. But look at it this way: if he’s working with them, then they are also working with him. See, the coin flips both ways.
And Republicans should absolutely be ready to work with President Obama “in a serious way.” To seriously return to the principles of private property and individual rights that made us what we are in the first place. To seriously stamp down government power – not all the way out, but down – and to give business owners and employers and wealth creators confidence that their efforts today won’t be stolen from them tomorrow.
You want us to work with you in a serious way, President Obama? Help us do those things. I’ll be glad, even, to give you the credit for it.
