Obama: Yeah, My Campaign Ads Sometimes Go Overboard
There are two stories surrounding Obama’s interview with CBS News. The first is goes thusly
(CNN) President Barack Obama discussed his frustration with gridlock in Washington, saying his “biggest disappointment” in his nearly four years in office has been the failure to oversee change in the nation’s political climate.
“My biggest disappointment is that we haven’t changed the tone in Washington as much as I would have liked,” Obama said in a CBS News interview that aired Sunday.
Asked if he bears any blame for the stalemate, Obama said the buck stops at his desk.
“I think that, you know, as president I bear responsibility for everything, to some degree,” he said on CBS’ “60 Minutes.”
You have to truly love how he hedges his bets with the “to some degree”. Yet, as the Weekly Standard points out, just last week his biggest disappointment was not getting immigration reform done. And, let’s not forget it was also the DREAM Act vote. And his messaging being off. And not explaining things properly to the American People.
On the same CBS program Sunday, Romney agreed the problem ultimately falls on the president’s shoulders and offered his own approach to resolving the partisan impasse.
“Leadership is not just working with your own party, but working with both parties. And I learned that. I was governor of a state with a legislature 87 percent Democrat,” Romney said. “I realized I was going to get nothing done unless I had a relationship– a respect, and trust with– with the members of the– of the opposition party.”

Love the phrase – A Democratic Gaffe: when a democrat tells the truth.
Here’s another campaign lie told by Baraq Hussein Osama-bin-lyin in order to jam Obamacare down our throats.

@Stirrin:
All part of the great forward plan. Break the middle class via healthcare costs, funnel them onto government single pay.

Has anyone in the barry camp come forward yet to explain what he really meant? ‘Cause I haven’t heard the typical Monday morning spin on this.

Its all about the lie that is most expediant at the time. Typically voters say they want the parties to work together to solve our problems, so that’s what OFullofit will give them. Then do want he wants in office. You want Immigration reform, sure its Oliesalots top priority. Just vote to keep him in place so the poison of Obamacare can work its way fully into the nation.
We’ve all seen it and anyone buying this “working with both parties” is deluding themselves.
The Democratic Party is way beyond the center in this nation and firmly in the Socialist camp. There are no moderates left over there, just a few isolated outliers. They need to be smashed even harder than they were in 2010 in order to force the party back towards the center. I hope the nation can deliver.
