Cornyn: Obama 'Out Of Touch' For Sipping Martinis With Fellow Democrats

January 16, 2014, 4:07 PM EST

Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) is attacking President Barack Obama for plotting politics, martini in hand, with his fellow Democrats.

"So what's the President's big idea for helping the economy getting back on track? Well, last night, according to published news reports, he was drinking martinis and plotting his 2014 political strategy with his fellow Democrat party members," Cornyn said in a Thursday email to supporters.

The senior senator from the Lone Star state seized on a report in Politico detailing a Wednesday night meeting in the East Room of the White House where Obama was seen sipping a martini. According to the report, Obama invited the Senate Democrats to trade ideas on their agenda for the year.

Cornyn added that Obama is ignoring a chance to take a bipartisan approach with Republicans by drinking with Democrats.

"Cornyn added that Obama is ignoring a chance to take a bipartisan approach with Republicans by drinking with Democrats. "

he wasted four years trying to be bipartisan, while you GOP tried so hard to derail him, you wrecked the economy of the country. And now you are mad because he drinks with Democrats (half of which are probably RINOS anyway, aka your main allies?)

of George W Bush opening a gigantic bottle of champagne on a yacht?

3. Sure do wish someone, anyone would say STFU douchebag.

Bunch of jagoffs who laugh their way to the bank every time another Don't Tread On Me flag goes up, bumper sticker gets slapped on - just means there's another mind clogged with ignorance that will continue to vote against their own best interest.

4. Cronyn is out of touch with Texas citizens also, he voted against the law to ban some weapons

When a large percent was far the bills, he votes against extending UI though many Texans wants it extended, he voted against the ACA though Texas has the largest amount of uninsured population. He needs to step back, get a martini or whatever it takes to do what Texans wants him to do and if there is any time left maybe he can have a Martini with Obama.

5. Talk about making political hay out of nothing

Discussing the direction of his own party over a few drinks. Big whoop. At least he didn't do it while the government was in shutdown mode like some members of the republican party got caught doing. Some even going to a liquor store before return back to the House floor.

his own party.

7. What does Coryn drink when plotting political strategy? Kool-ade?

Hey John: howz about your team stop trying to block everything at every turn, and he won't need to strategize ways around that.

Oh, I know: he's a traditionalist: political strategizing should be done over whiskey and cigars, not martinis.

8. Hey barkeep! Whose vagina do you have to regulate to get a dry martini around here?

10. Would he be happier if Obama was sipping Jack Daniels?

11. So he should have broken out a $700 bottle of wine like Boner?

[jmowreader]

12. For $700 I want the other 69 bottles of wine

Ain't nuthin' a $700 bottle of wine will do for you that a $10 bottle won't do just as well.
