President Barack Obama’s To-Do List
1.) Fight Two Wars on Terror
2.) Fix an American Economy in Crisis
3.) Censor Rush Limbaugh
Censor Rush Limbaugh? That is exactly what President Barack Obama would love to do. Obama’s hurt feelings came one day after Excellence in Broadcasting’s and conservatives’ own talk show and self-described sole surviving leader Limbaugh claimed he “hoped President Obama fails.”
Limbaugh’s rant to FOXNews’ Sean Hannitty attacked the socialist policies of Obama which outlined strategies to unprivatize national entities and bring them under government control. Limbaugh’s comment was purposely misconstrued and taken out of context by virtually every liberal media outlet, and apparently, the President himself.
In a meeting with top Republican lawmakers on Capitol Hill Friday, the President warned Republicans in order to get along with Democrats they must stop listening to Rush. Adding furthur insult to injury, Obama reiterated the fact he “won” and will “trump [Republicans] on the [pressing issues].” This came in response to an objection by Rep. Eric Cantor (R-VA) over the President’s proposal to increase benefits to low-income workers who don’t even pay federal income taxes.
Obama’s ruffled feathers shows another sign of his rattled easy demeanor. This is in stark contrast to Former President George W. Bush, who was a frequent target of opportunity for left wing fanatics but always showed poise and grace even under intense pressure from these groups or public opinion polls. With everything facing the new President and the country, it is going to be a long four years if 44 doesn’t grow thick skin.
Toughen up, Mr. Obama! It’s only been one week.
