O’Reilly and Krauthammer Accuse Obama of Trying to Split the Republican Party So He Can Establish His Welfare Paradise

Posted by Margarita -5pc on January 16, 2013 · Flag

We’re all familiar with Fox News’ practice of blaming everything on Obama, from the recession to the deficit to gas prices to the warts on their feet. Last night, O’Reilly and guest Charles Krauthammer added "trying to destroy the Republican party" to that list, ignoring the fact that the Republican party is destroying itself quite effectively all on its own.

"It looks like President Obama is setting up the Republican Party for a very hard fall on both gun control and the debt ceiling," O'Reilly began, complaining that he isn't even bothering to offer the Republicans any compromise on either issue. Obama's prime goal in everything he’s done since his re-election, O'Reilly said, has been to damage the GOP, not to get things done. (Whaaa!? Methinks, gentle reader, that he shouldn't throw stones considering the glass house he and Fox are living in.)
 
Krauthammer agreed. All Obama’s interested in, he added, his setting up his entitlement state, and a split GOP is “all that stands between him and total dominance of Washington in his second term. He wants a return to 2009-2010 when he had control of both Houses. He had a super majority in the Senate, huge majority in the House, and revolutionized healthcare, and pass the biggest-spending bill and the stimulus in galactic history." (GALACTIC? Really?!)

Obama has two things going for him, O'Reilly said: the liberal media which always gives him a pass, and no leader in the GOP who can stand up to him. (And whose fault is that?) Krauthammer was a bit more optimistic. Nothing's permanent, he said, because liberalism won’t work. “It stopped in Europe and it will stop for the U.S.” “But I don’t want a catastrophe before that happens,” said O’Reilly, and the interview ended on that.
 
Gentle reader, the audacity of blaming Obama for the Republican party's troubles boggles my mind. Have they forgotten the ideological struggle between moderates and Tea Party types that tarnished the Republicans’ image so badly in the last campaign? Or the Tea Party’s complete lack of ability to compromise on higher tax rates? Or the collection of goofies, goons and gaffe-makers they presented, during the last campaign, as potential leaders for the world’s most powerful nation? Republicans don’t need Obama’s help to self-destruct. They're already marching en masse to the sea like lemmings, with Fox News bravely waving the flag.

The Sole person responsible for the internal strife and bickering within the Republican Party is the person who Americans OVERWHELMINGLY chose to be our leader, who does not belong to, who does not affiliate himself with, and is completely DESPISED, to a level never before seen, by said Party. I was always taught that a person like this, would not only Strengthen , but UNIFY the base of the opposition. This is nothing more than an infantile statement from the ‘I know you are, but what am I’ school of debate we all (well most of us) moved on and up from in grade school. They (Republicans) are deservedly self destructing (reference: ‘Welcome to our club ’The Republican-Tea Party Pact’ or the shorter ‘The Hitler-Stalin Pact’.. But for a more relevant and easier to understand comparison, look up ‘What Is A TAPEWORM’ ) and if they are so internally scattered to the 4 winds that they have to blame complete/self confessed OUTSIDERS for the lack of control and message within their own Party?
Well you don’t have a PARTY any more. Good Riddance.

The FOX “news” talking heads are loathe to have a real discussion in front of the folks about the animosity/challenges that exist between the moderate Repubs and the Tea Party “chuckleheads” but have no problem teeing off on the idea that it must be Obama’s fault? LOL! GOPers are destroying themselves and/or eating their own yet BOR, Chuck and FOX “news” decide its more advantageous to their side if they blame the right-wing dysfunction on the President because their reality sucks. Bwaaah! Keep it up, FOX “news”, we’re enjoying the laughs!

Why is the GOP in disarray? Because they listen to the idiot FNC blatherers.

Nobody but nobody could claim the dubious fame of destroying the Republican Party,the fools are doing it all by themselves.Is it me or is Vile Bile’s program getting more absurd with the same tiresome people spouting the same bullshit night after night.And the morose negativity from the “Undertaker” is getting sooooooo old.

You can’t make up this stuff. The supporters of a political party who have been doing absolutely everything in their power to divide the Democratic camp is complaining because their own camp is in disarray?

My head is spinning.

Billy and Charlie blame Obama for splitting the GOP? Ahahahahah! Both of these clowns are fools. It’s the Tea Party destroying the Republican Party.

Krooked Karl has been instructed by Republican insiders to target the Tea Nuts, and remove them from the party. But the Tea Nuts are on to the Republican Party’s scheme, and they are going after Rove.

You won’t hear those details from Billy or Charlie, or the Fox “News” frauds.

NOTE TO BILLY AND CHARLIE

Since you two decided to keep certain facts from your audience, we will tell them ourselves.

Well, if, in O’Reilly’s words, Obama’s goal is “damage the GOP, not to get things done,” the GOP should be happy. He won’t be able to accomplish his “socialist” agenda and “fundamentally change” the country.

That Krauthammer said this says a lot… though, not nearly as much as that O"Reilly didn’t seem to be concerned about that.

POS borally and the Undetaker are doing what GOPigs have done for the past 100+ years. Blame everyone else. This is their definition of “personal responsibility”. It’s all GOPiggies personal responsibility to blame everyone else.

It’s all Obama’s fault. He went to all the repub governors and asked them to make voting ridiculously difficult, and then waited for the backlash. Clearly, obama planted those words in Akins’ head, as well as gov. Brewer alienating everyone NOT of european ancestry. Truly, Obama has been one busy kenyon. Just wait til’ he hears about gerrymandering….!

Ah, but you see…it was President Obama who got the teabaggers started. That e-vile genius Obama! He’s the one who got the teabaggers to side in with the GOPigs and against him. He’s the one who got the teabaggers to be right-wing racist extremists. For a low intelligence lazy black man who depends on the government, Obama has sure been a smart and busy man.

It’s time for POS borally to keep his promise and quit his ALL SPIN FACTOR!

Sweet Elbiz tap dancing on toast…

My friendssss (cue in John McCain,) as far back as 2007 I wrote about the demise of the gNOpigs.

And I did thank former President George Dumbya Bush for it. Because he set the bar so low, and so far to the right only the xtian taliban could bend to meet it.

I was reading some of my Doonesbury from 30 years ago.

30 years ago.
30 years ago.

And the gNOpigs are still stuck with their Buybles and guns and sanctimony.

Billldo is stuck with the Beaver and Mayberry. Then Billdo blames President Obama.

WTF is wrong with Billdo and Krapshamsters.
Remember Billdo the Independent?
Because I sure don’t.

Poor Billdo is suffering post election depression. And paranoia.

Memo to Billdo:

YOU LOST.

You and the gNOpigs LOST in a democratic election.

YOU LOST. AGAIN.

Kindly get the phuk out of here, Billdo.

Dear God.
These people cannot even be responsible for their own party.
They are destroying it. They are divided. They invited the religious and crazies to the dance and now blame others for their poor judgement.
And they can’t even own up to it.

Contrary to bloviating Bildo and his wooden dummy Kraphamsters, the Repug Party’s demise will be the direct result of allowing the wingnut teabaggers to take over. In order to get through the primary process, Repug candidates must now steer hard to the right on all social issues in order to pander to the teabaggers. That pandering makes them unelectable in a general election.
