OBAMA: "You don't like a particular policy or a particular president-Go out there & win an election"

“You don’t like a particular policy or a particular president, then argue for your position,” Obama said. “Go out there and win an election.”

The comments are likely to have many Republicans complaining that Obama is spiking the football after a victory.

The bruising fight led to internal battles in the Republican party, and polls show more voters blame the GOP than the White House for the shutdown and debt ceiling crisis.

The treatment this man has received...Republicans comparing him to Hitler, inferring impeachment, "you lie", the right-wing media echo chamber has bashed Obama even when Obama has promoted policy previously supported by Republicans.

You guys have spent 5+ years suggesting he isn't even American, is a Muslim, pals around with terrorists and 'hates' America. While you lectured Liberals during the 8 years of President Idiocy's reign of error on how us on the left need to "show respect" for the institution and why do we hate America? Over and over, rinse and repeat.

You guys have drummed your bullshit loud and wide for years now...

...And still you can't beat him.

You can't beat him because contrary to YOUR belief the guy is smart as hell, he comes off respectful and conciliatory, and far exceeds the standards of the typical nitwittery stock that currently resides in the Republican roster. And despite his skin pigmentation he comes off as a STATESMAN, something rarely seen among the clowns and dunderheads in the current Republican circus.

President Obama is right, win an election and while maybe that is "spiking the ball" the venom unleashed against this man for any and everything he has done, the verbal beatings his wife has taken tells me not only do I want him to spike the ball, I want to pick it up, give it back to him so he can phucking spike it again.

I wish he had said something more like "America has had enough of this craziness from the republicans - if they can't work for the good of our country then we need to boot them out by electing more Democrats in 2014!"
