Republicans are trying to gain political points

[RandomThoughts]

criticizing President Obama's honest comments on Iran situation. Not only would saying something have been bad, it would have no effect.

But Republicans want power and that is all they care about.

It is absurd.

What would it matter or help for President Obama to say more, we have two wars going on right now, and not alot of spare money. They want him to get up and make stupid comments like Bush did, like a childish unthinking child.

And the worst part is they are doing it because they don't care about Iran or Iran people, they just want political points.

Pathetic

1. And the president is trying to manage problems to protect the public's interest

This is the difference between Dems and Republicans--we want to solve problems and they want to exploit them. We look to the long term and they deal in the short term. We seek stability & equilibrium and they seek opportunities and angles to play. We want to satisfy the public needs and they want to act out their impulses.

3. Agreed.

Where was the concern about the Iranian people when they laughed about bombing them?

4. cmon you dont really believe that all politicians dont do this

it always amazes me that anyone can think that only repub pols do bad stuff whereas just by having a D after someones name means all their motives are pure, remember its all party politics.

7. You are correct they are on both sides of aisle.

But you can tell when someone is lying, and when they are trying and just believes differently.

5. Every time I see them spouting their BS I just think about their 25% approval

It makes me feel much better.
