Reply #39: I do not for a moment think that Obama felt he could charm . . .

. . . the 'Lican troglodytes who infest Congress and whose most perfect expression of principle and intellect is -- Rush Limbaugh.

He knows they are antediluvians who are only capable of thinking with their reptile brains. He has to be seen attempting to charm them so that when they spit in his face he can wipe it off and turn to the American people with his patented "what did I tell you" look on his face.

They are drowning rats; they are an anthill with boiling water poured down it; they are cockroaches caught by the kitchen lights at midnight.

They are stupid, they are fatuous, they are dishonest, and they are last year's news.

Obama will go down in history as the man who broke the Republican Party over his knee and tossed the pieces in the dustbin of history.
