Sistah!

Chickenshit gops who are afraid to be seen helping the President.. so they vote against sensible background checks for criminals and those with mental problems.

Callously thumbing their collective NOSE at the Family and Loved ones of the Sandy Hook wee ones and all those who have been victims of gun violence.

The single most under-reported story of the last 4 years is the Republican Party's unhinged hatred of Barack Obama: http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/plum-line/wp/2013/05/01/pat-toomey-confirms-it-obama-is-right-about-gop/


Pat Toomey confirms it: Obama is right about GOP


President Obama is getting widely mocked by commentators and Republicans for using the phrase “permission structure” at his presser yesterday in the course of claiming that Republican officials are constrained from cooperating with him because their base would see it as a “betrayal.”

So it’s good to have a Republican Senator on record confirming that Obama is right about this.

I’m talking about Pat Toomey. The Senator from Pennsylvania didn’t directly address Obama’s remarks, but something he said in another context perfectly confirms the President’s diagnosis of the GOP.
