He didn't just call out the GOP, he called out his own party. Nice.

1. That was a very good line.
He's going on record here, for all the Democrats, including himself.

2. That wasn't the line, and shouldn't be in quotes.
"I would remind you that we still have the largest majority in decades, and the people expect us to solve some problems, not run for the hills."

4. That sentiment has been floated on DU.
I guess I hadn't expected the President to have to be a staff coordinator, but hey, if it's needed to get the job done....

5. Good move.
And it still boggles my mind that the Democrats would act more timid with a strong majority than the Rethugs do with a fucking minority.

I mean, come on guys.
