Politics Is Usually Mostly Thuggery

Karl Rove Says Barack Obama Has Moved Chicago Politics to the White House - WSJ.com

“Don’t think we’re not keeping score, brother.” That’s what President Barack Obama said to Rep. Peter DeFazio in a closed-door meeting of the House Democratic Caucus last week, according to the Associated Press.

A few weeks ago, Mr. DeFazio voted against the administration’s stimulus bill. The comment from Mr. Obama was a presidential rebuke and part of a new, hard-nosed push by the White House to pressure Congress to adopt the president’s budget. He has mobilized outside groups and enlisted forces still in place from the Obama campaign.

Obama hired Chicago thug Rahm Emanuel as his enforcer-in-chief, and anybody is surprised by this?

And, frankly, the G. W. Bush administration might have done better if it had handled its RINOs in a similar manner.
