Oh those poor winey Republicans. The Democrats have finally grown some balls since President Obama successfully ordered the execution of Osama Bin Laden and now the GOP is crying fowl because their lifelong tactic of using “ fear “ to get their way and to con the American public is finally coming around to bite them in their respective asses. The Democrats, led by Obama, are on the offensive and it is scaring the hell out of the GOP American Taliban. They have even wrote a letter to the President asking him to tell the Democrats to calm down their rhetoric, and to let bygones be bygones.
On Medicare bill that they House passed.
On Tuesday, Kinzinger and 41 of his colleagues sent a letter to President Obama, asking him to rein in Democratic attacks on GOP members who voted for the House budget, which includes a plan to privatize Medicare and cap spending on the program.
"We ask that you stand above partisanship, condemn the disingenuous attacks and work with this Congress to reform spending on entitlement programs," the letter reads. TPM
The GOP kind of got preempted by the DCCC before the GOP press conference happened.
To preempt the press conference, the DCCC responded to the letter with a long list of NRCC and candidate attack ads and statements from the 2010 election -- all of them targeting Democrats for cutting Medicare, all on behalf of GOP candidates who are now hoping for a truce on Medicare attacks.
The Democratic Party should continue to tell the Republicans where they can go.
