Reince Priebus has just demonstrated how this country has turned to showing little respect for the office of the President and the choice of the majority of Americans in 2008.. That Reince Priebus, on video now, has accused President Obama of being analogous to Capt. Francesco Schettino, the Captain of the Costa Concordia ship, now in jail, who ran his ship aground and ignored those whose lives were subsequently lost. He compared President Obama within running the ship aground in his Presidency and suggested that he take his policies and get them the Hell out of this country. For more on this story, click here. He was criticized both by Michael Steele, past RNC chair and Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, DNC chair for making this analogy and being totally disrespectful to the office of the President and grossly inappropriate.Bob Schieffer interviewed Mr. Priebus on Face the Nation on Sunday. Priebus gave the Republican part line, "We want to make this president a one-term President. That's what this is all about." His claim is that Obama has stopped doing his job and is devoting himself only to campaigning. I'd like to tell him that he knows nothing about the job of the presidency and that is why is only the chair of a losing political party which should be ashamed of itself.
How I wish we could bring pride, honesty, integrity, loyalty and the love of American democracy back to our people. It seems too much to hope for until we can get the "Greedy Bastards" out of our midst as Dylan Ratigan. It is good that we have several more months to try to make the point that Obama needs to be able to continue with the changes he has already put into motion.
