If you Google “Obama rebukes Republicans” it goes on and on and on. Looks like Woodward did it again, there's no better investigative journaliste in the USA then him, and his critics of Obama, very informative, it's not like he regurgitates the same ones in every talk shows, also he truly believes Mitch McConnell was joking when he said the Republicans main objective was to make Obama a one term president. And Doris who's brought into the debat after the boys have eaten tries to make up the lost miles for her socialist boyfriend but it's too late Woodward has already convinced me Obama is waterboarding the feelings of his beloved Republican friends who just want to help me succeed, and that's just not fair.

When everyone has 5 thousand pairs of shoes, I think shoe ads and marking will be not needed. Or you think more aggressive shoe ads and marketing are needed to educate a man, so he will purchase another 5 thousand pairs of shoes in addition to his current 5 thousand pairs of shoes ????

The reason Zeus casted Prometheus into abyss when Prometheus didn't reveal the prophecy, is that the memory at the very beginning was erased when Cronus and other Titans defeated Uranus. I believe that Uranus/sky is Gaia's son in Greek myth is half true.

Great style Obama! Love it.
June 30, 2009
Garry Wills with eight other eminent historians — Michael Beschloss, H.W. Brands, Douglas Brinkley, Robert Caro, Robert Dallek, Doris Kearns Goodwin, and David Kennedy — and President Obama.
http://www.npr.org/blogs/thetwo-way/2010/07/28/128823598/pulitzer-winner-breaks-silence-about-private -dinner-with-obama-historians
(Charlie, this dinner event sounds like you!)
Wills writes,
When Obama said that he was surprised that the left was so critical of him, I said that it would continue to be critical so long as he issued signing statements before passage of a law. He asked which one I objected to, and I said that any are unconstitutional.
At the end of the meal, he went around the table one time more to ask if there was a final bit of advice we would give.
When my turn came, I joined those who had already warned him about an Afghanistan quagmire. I said that a government so corrupt and tribal and drug-based as Afghanistan’s could not be made stable. He replied that he was not naive about the difficulties but he thought a realistic solution could be reached. I wanted to add "when pigs fly," but restrained myself.

We hear, "The moral arc of the universe bends slowly but it bends towards justice."
Funny word "justice". Dr. King loved it.
"Yes, if you want to say that I was a drum major, say that I was a drum major for justice; say that I was a drum major for peace; I was a drum major for righteousness. And all of the other shallow things will not matter. I won't have any money to leave behind. I won't have the fine and luxurious things of life to leave behind. But I just want to leave a committed life behind. And that's all I want to say."
"True peace is not merely the absence of tension: it is the presence of justice."
"The tensions are not between the races, but between the forces of justice and injustice; between the forces of light and darkness."
"America owes a debt of justice which it has only begun to pay. If it loses the will to finish or slackens in its determination, history will recall its crimes and the country that would be great will lack the most indispensable element of greatness — justice."
"Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly."
(Obama: Habeas Corpus! You know what you have to do.)

The question not asked was about gerrymandering and how it won the Republicans the House and how often it has come into play in our history.
By popular combined vote the Republicans actually LOST the House by 1.1 million votes.

We are told, 'Google “Obama rebukes Republicans” and it goes on and on and on."
All right.
Obama rebukes Republicans over Benghazi, backs UN Ambassador Rice.
OBAMA REBUKES REPUBLICANS OVER RISING CHEESE PRICES.
Obama rebukes Republicans over campaign finance bill.
Obama Rebukes G.O.P. Critics of His Iran Policy.
Obama Rebukes Republicans On Debt Talks.
(Five "rebukes" in four years over four Google pages. Sounds like someone on the panel is a drama queen.)

"As Texas Goes...: How the Lone Star State Hijacked the American Agenda"
Texas sent 26 Republicans to Washington--more than any other state.
"With the presidency and Senate in Democratic hands, 2013 will not be a year of substantial conservative public policy gains," said Mark Jones, chairman of the political science department at Rice University. "The Texas GOP delegation will instead be involved in a rear-guard effort to prevent further Democratic and liberal policy advances while at the same time working to chip away at past Democratic policy successes."
So what oath(s) did these 26 make before their oath to uphold the Constitution?
Can you sway them with barbeque and Polaroid photos in the Lincoln bedroom?
LBJ was from Texas and he knew what to do.

Roughly speaking, with one dollar of debt-free money to match every dollar of debt-backed money, and taxes starting at zero and climbing only to prevent hyper-inflation, a new Obama, divorced from the Univ. of Chicago, and devoted to the Univ. of Missouri at Kansas City, can, with his Federal Reserve, regain America's ownership of the title "arsenal of democracy in peace and war-prevention", that his opponents would abandon on account of their chronic cupidity and stupidity--many of them represented in these archives.

"I should have shot Henry Clay and hanged John Calhoun.", we were told was Jackson's verdict. Obama must take this wisdom to heart. We don't need to re-fight the Civil War. But the issue is wage slavery. Which side are you on?
Gelles 01/23/2013 09:12 AM Report
"It's the economy stupid."
"No, fool. It's about race--and nothing else."
You can select the bumper sticker you like.
But Obama is in and Romney's not.
The agenda will give us leadership to high-tech abundance or follower-ship in green production of everything--as we all learn to speak Chinese and live with Mandarinism worse than our own.
There is no good reason we cannot raise interest and inflation protections for people with money to save and, simultaneously raise wages and lower taxes and interest for business operations and subsidized growth. All good things are based on industrial and agricultural output! Not on debt to criminal interests whose exploitation of the rest of has come to an end.

Please continue to use Woodward in these historical Presidential discussions because he seems to ground the academics in present politics.
Swliv 01/22/2013 07:05 PM Report
I had the thought that, with two oath-takings each for both of his inaugurations, maybe President Obama would have tied FDR for the record # of such events in Am. hist.
Somewhat relatedly, I mostly listened to rather than watched the oath-taking. There was one word I heard more than once on which, at its end, the President's voice caught. Perhaps it was at the end of "States". As I heard it more times (and once when I saw it and saw some smiles from Mrs. Obama around the same time, I think) I developed the feeling that there were maybe some giggles being suppressed amongst the trio, in effect -- the Chief Justice, the President and the First Lady. With all the glitches they'd been through, relatively, in the duty, it seemed quite imaginable. Just a thought. Heard no comment on it.
I DID appreciate both the journalists' and historians' part 1 discussions, which I saw most of today. Sorry my comments are unrelated to the specifics of the discussions.

Commenting on the show and its content doesn't appear to be on the agenda of prior bloggers. They all seem to be absorbed in their alternate universes and in spewing insults and rhetoric. Now to the program, how ridiculous a discussion of lack of diversity from a yet incomplete cabinet than from, not one but two lilly white panels. They all should have worn hoods and sheets. And what's up with Woodwards new anti-Obama mantra, "The president's inability to leave the Republicans with something, what I can't imagine, instead of constantly poking them in the eye? What in the hell do you think they should expect from a president they just spent the last four years vilifying, subverting, humiliating, and a list of other indignities too numerous to name. From one panel member to the next, the absence of race in any context, as an explanation of both his congressional and electorial opposition, points to the inherent flaw in these colorless pundit discussions. In this and many other societies, racism is the fly in the ointment.

From the Young Turks from a couple days ago:
''Why Wasn't Bob Woodward Jailed Like Bradley Manning?''
Video Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FpY51FaG0x4
'' Published on Jan 19, 2013
"There are numerous travesties defining the ongoing prosecution of accused whistleblower Bradley Manning, but none more dangerous than the accusation that by leaking classified information, he "aided and abetted the enemy" (al-Qaida) - a capital offense. Not even the government claims he intended to help al-Qaida. The theory is that, even though it was not his intent, the information Manning disclosed may end up being of value to the terrorist organization: a claim that applies to virtually every leak of classified information to any media organization, thus transforming standard whistle-blowing into the equivalent of treason."
Bob Woodward wrote a book divulging national secrets. Why isn't he getting jailed and humiliated and mistreated like Bradley Manning was when he leaked information? Cenk Uygur breaks down which the real threat to freedom is.

REMant 01/22/2013 12:05 PM Report
The journalists failed to find the president's oratory lame, and the historians that he is, above all else, a lame duck. 1937 also saw the revelation that FDR's first-term economic policies caused a stock market crash worse yet just as unforeseen as that of 1929. And, as Woodward points out, like FDR, Obama comes across as hater-in-chief. But we have hardly had a president in two centuries who did not make himself an object of derision by acting like an escapee from a loony bin. I would be prone to tolerate them were they ordinary citizens; as presidents I can't. Especially not when they so frequently believe themselves to be the anointed of God. And when, following their example, this has become a nation of liars and cheats. Yet, we would not be speaking of these things but for half-a-dozen seats in the Senate. And, Pulitzer winners or not, I am sick and tired of seeing this group, monarchists all. The journalists made more sense, as John Flynn did with Roosevelt.
BTW, I still expect Obamacare to be either repealed or substantially altered.
