President Feels Victimized By Washington And Wants His Own Way
During a speech in Denver, Colorado, on Wednesday, President Barack Obama expressed his feelings of victimization by the Republican Party and pledged that he will use his executive power to bypass congress and do what he sees necessary for the United States. Obama stated that the United States is most certainly better off than it was five years ago — by almost every measure. Yet, he also believes that congress serves as a large roadblock on the way to our nation’s progress. The solution? Use more executive power. “You would think that these challenges would absorb the attention of folks in Washington. But these days, basic common sense ideas cant get through Congress….now they cant seem to pass a bill,” Obama said. But Obama isn’t a problem-causing man of Washington. No, the enemy is simply victimizing him. “The Republicans in congress right now will do anything to score points for those at the top, or to try to score political points political points on me. Even if the obstruction keeps the system rigged against the middle class,” Obama stated. |
