Obama gives DEMOCRAT Senators “pep talk” behind closed doors, locks out Republicans
Well I guess this could be considered “not just democrats”, since this “pep talk” included the two liberal “independent” Senators Joe Lieberman and Bernie Sanders too. The most “transparent” adminstration ever decided pop off for a rare weekend meeting on Capitol Hill on Sunday. According to USA today, Obama reminded Democratic senators of the economic crisis facing the nation and implored them to press on with their 10-year, $848 billion health care bill. Yet Obama claims their was no “negotations”, just simply that was was a “pep talk”.
“That wasn’t a negotiation, it was a pep talk,” the president told reporters as he emerged from the meeting, which lasted about 30 minutes. “They’re doing great,” he said, predicting that lawmakers are “going to get it done.”
RINO John McCain wasn’t too happy about this secret, closed door “pep talk” or whatever you want to call it either.
“I don’t like to refer back to the last campaign, for obvious reasons, all the time,” quipped Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., who lost to Obama in the 2008 presidential election. But, he said, Obama isn’t living up to the promises he made during the campaign. “There was going to be a change in climate in Washington,” McCain said.
