Obama may find his oft repeated campaign theme-whine that what has to be ‘fixed’ in ‘Washington’ is the ‘gridlock’ comes back to bite him 180 degrees from its intended target.  Yes, Mr. President. You are quite right. And may I be the first to congratulate you for – in your own ass-backwards way – recognizing the problem, which is the first step to authentic recovery (as opposed to a Plouffe/Axelrod P.R. ‘Recovery’).

YOU are the gridlock.  YOU are utterly incapable of leading men. Or herding cats, as it were. What did you think this was? An editorial meeting at the Law Review? With you holding the red pen? Shoo-ing lessers away?

FORTY-THREE MEN BEFORE YOU somehow managed to herd those cats… AND YOU WHINE.  You used to teach the constitution, for crying out loud.  You should know, one would reasonably suppose, that 535 of the people’s representatives are wont to be – thank GOD – an unruly bunch.  

Edison, echoing a sentiment of Jefferson’s, said he found 2,000 ways NOT to make the lightbulb before he got to the ONE way to successfully make it.  Jefferson’s quote was, loosely, that the American people may get it wrong, over and over, and over again – ON THE WAY TO GETTING IT RIGHT – but they WILL get it RIGHT in the end.  He believed in US.  He believed (rightly) in the (now proven durable) system of government he helped craft – in the ugly, messy process of separated powers.  Do you?  

This is BIG BOY politics, Barry. It’s supposed to be hard. This is the job you asked for. What did you think? That congress was going to lay down and think of England? (Queen Victoria’s advice to a bride on her wedding night.)

The people’s representatives are there to check your stupid, provably bankrupting green winning picks. You say you aren’t there to pick winners but you keep choosing to force us to your stupid green jobs, which have bankrupted entire countries – but somehow the law of 2+2=4 stops at our shores? Really?

Your continued insistence that the gridlock is the problem, whether you realize it or not, is a continued ADMISSION that YOU can’t LEAD. So keep it up, Barry. WE are smart enough to know that the system was there long before you were, AND OTHER MEN WERE ABLE TO HERD THOSE CATS.

The ‘gridlock’ is YOU. Once we remove YOU and replace YOU with constitutional conservatives THERE WON’T BE ANYMORE GRIDLOCK, YOU MORON.

It’s not OUR wedding night, big guy…

…and we’re not layin’ down for a screwin’.
