ABC News: Obama Says the GOP Has "Spent the Last 20 Months Politicking"
Topics: Oil, Political News and commentariesPardon the pun, but isn't this a case of the pot calling the kettle black?
Hitting the campaign-cash trail again today, President Obama in Austin, Texas today opened up a string of attacks against the Republicans, painting them as a party that lacks seriousness and ideas due to only looking forward to the next election.Apparently Mr. "24/7/365 politics," "blame Bush," "play basketball and golf," "spend time vacationing, fund-raising, and sponsoring White House bashes for celebrities," believes if he accuses his opponents of doing what amounts to his only focus, some Americans just might be dumb enough to believe it."There has been a fundamental lack of seriousness on the other side," Obama said to a crowd at the Four Seasons hotel in Austin, "We've spent the last 20 months governing, they have spent the last 20 months politicking."
The president - who has been out on the stump raising cash and throwing his support behind local candidates increasingly - says that well he can politick with the best of them for the next three months leading up to midterm elections. "They forgot I'm pretty good at politicking," he quipped with a smile.
However, given his plummeting job approval numbers, he's barking up the wrong tree.
