Social Question
Obama caught saying this in open mic gaffe.... why doesn't he just flat out say that anyways?
Link below has the whole article. Basically the president was caught slamming the GOP in an open mic gaffe. He said the following…
About GOP attempts to defund/repeal healthcare:
”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?”
About attaching a bill to the budget to take funding from 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.”
His opinion of Rep. Paul Ryan and his budget plan:
”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”
If the President spoke like this to the public more often…... my god his approval rating would be through the roof and he’d have damn near all the legislation passed he wanted.
What do you think?
