Ya gotta love how the GOP is always looking out for our President. Always ready with a dose of healthy construcitve criticism or friendly advice.
Sen. Lamar Alexander (R - TN) exemplified this today, as he advised President Obama "not to make an enemies list" or he risks becoming ..... wait for it......
like President Nixon. (space inserted for open-mouthed disbelief)
Yes, that gigantic pie hole of a man Lamar Alexander is worried about Obama becoming Nixon. And I quote from the Reuters story:
Senator Lamar Alexander told Reuters he has begun to see the Obama White House adopting an attitude similar to that of the Richard Nixon White House four decades ago, that "everybody is against us and we are going to get them."
Alexander cited as examples the Obama administration's suggestion that it may support stripping the insurance industry of its exemption of federal anti-trust laws, its clash with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the president saying he will call out people who oppose him and boycott Fox News network.
Alexander, a member of the congressional Republican leadership, said he is "suggesting that the president back up" and "don't start an enemies list."
Lamar of course gave the same advice to President CheneyBush over the last eight years, as he voted for warrantless wiretapping, the Patriot Act, defended torture, and spoke out against open government requests. Except he didn't.
Except Lamar Alexander is saying this in defense of Fox News. May he step out his front door this morning and be smacked in the head by a giant falling brick of hypocrisy.
