An extraordinary vapid wish of advice Obama might follow by Axelrod. Americans want border control, cessation of welfare for illegals, and a requirement of English. That is so far from what Obama promises and what Axelrod thinks might be a workable compromise. If the economy were booming, there might be some feeling of compassion or mercy, but when people are losing jobs, healthcare, and hours their care for less fortunates is very small. Immigration and foreign policy continue to reveal the anti-American spirit of the Obama administration. Along with Ferguson.

Do what the President has said he was doing, over the last six years: focus on the economy. Make every bill relate to putting Americans back to work. I would make it clear to both blacks and legal immigrants that it is not in their interest to legalize those that broke the law. Put people back to work. Cut back on regulations. Save the coal and oil industries.

DAVID AXELROD: Well, some of us were concerned about this election because of the turf on which these races were being fought [the agenda of destroying America – – as even present day debased Americans understand] and the historic pattern [Democrat opposition to the 13th Amendment, KKK, Jim Crow, using the word “nigger” for decades as a political tactic, use of racial tactics and racial hatred] that wasn’t in favor of the president. Some of the events leading into the election weren’t helpful as well [hating Jews, hating Americans, and hating any sort of disagreement]. Absolutely the president should respond [cf. Trotsky]. You have to look forward [there is never any present reality to be considered, except to the extent it interferes with “looking forward” to the Chimera of the mental aberration of Utopia]. The important thing is you see Senator McConnell and I assume [not on any intelligible basis, just on the basis of tactics and the history of Republican superficiality] Speaker Boehner will do the same, suggesting that they want to work together, and I think the president has to test that proposition and has to be forward leaning in doing so [in contradiction of his petty ideological mind, so, I really am lying when I say this].

Perhaps he could have been more forward leaning yesterday [in all meaningless sincerity]. Politics is all about when your interest align [except when it means war-like eliminating the opposition, as is]. It may have been in the interest of the Republican Party in the last six years to try and [try to?] block the president at every turn, but their brand is degraded by what they’ve done [not capitulate completely]. Their numbers are far worse than his [their collective IQ is 99, and BO’s IQ is 83] and heading into the 2016 election, they have a lot of rehabilitation to do not just to win the presidency if that’s their goal [doubtful even to this Leftist] but also to elect a lot of senators who are in blue states, Republican senators, their map is worse from that standpoint than the Democratic map was in 2014. They need to show they can work with this president [totally capitulate if they want the soviet media to stop calling them names] . He ought to take advantage of that and see where they can…

I know he wants to keep faith with all of those Americans who want him to act and all those who are suffering with this broken immigration system [people who hate America as much as BO].

But the fact is a strong bipartisan bill was passed by the United States Senate. If I were the president, i would go to John Boehner and say i’m willing to withdraw my plan for executive action if you’re willing to put this bill on the floor for a vote [accede to the open borders permitting my beloved Iranian agents and other detrimental groups to flood the detested country, America]. I’ll live with the results of that vote [the vote I want]. There’s a very good reason to believe that a majority of members of the House support this bipartisan Senate bill and while the Republicans are warning about taking what they consider extraordinary action on the part of the president [absolutely chilling because of the probable truth; blackmail and cowardice], it’s also extraordinary to keep the House of Representatives from voting on a bill that a majority want to pass and so the Speaker if he wants to demonstrate that this is a new era, he can do that by putting that bill on the floor. That would obviate the need for any executive action.

The only real question here is what the GOP will do. We already know that Obama will act like a petulant dick.

The fact that Obama brought David Axelrod to Washington is another reason to hate this regime.

I agree that Russia is hampered by a shrinking population. Its economy is based on energy production, there is a limitation to how much pressure they can place on the EU nations. Putin is merely exploring how far he can push. When/if he is pushed back I think he will pull back. But if he wants war the rest of Europe is too weak militarily to seriously counter an invasion of the Baltics or Moldova.

Nato without the USA is useless. Imo the American public is war weary and not interested in engaging in WW3 over Estonia.

The gop congress does need to try to put spotlights on team obama’s various scandals and deny funding when appropriate. They need to pass a budget (no more continuing spending authorizations) that bho will be loathe to sign. If he vetoes it swiftly send him another one, and another one if necessary. Pass authorization for the keystone pipeline. As quickly as possible, a few days after the new congress is sworn in, send him a bill that requires closing the borders and immediate deportation for the few that slip through.

However, impeachment is a waste of time and a perfect way to gain public disfavore. Conviction requires 67 votes which would never happen. Concentrate on policies the general public favors and do what is possible to thwart the progressive agenda. Pressure our narcissist in chief, make him pout and fume.

Red China and Putinist Russia are each others natural enemy.
——————

China’s no doubt eyeing the untapped resources just north of the border in Siberia. But in the meantime, Beijing is attempting to bully its neighbors into handing over any and all resources in the region’s waters.

“I’m with Rush. Do nothing for him or with him. If he wants to sign our bills, fine. Nothing else. Elections have consequences.”

I’m with Mike and Rush. Maybe even more stern than they are. I’d want to replace RINOs Boehner and McConnell with Tea Party Conservatives like Ted Cruz. ObamaCare rolled back. Defund amnesty (which Obola will do) . Go after the IRS. Go after Obama’s long form birth certificate instead of accepting the forged one he released. And have a vote to impeach this blatantly lawless Lib.
