Democrats urge Obama to âgo into full rage modeâ
Aware that a newly elected RepublicanÂ Senate majority will soon stymie his every move, top Democrats are urging President Obama to go into full rage mode. âWe call on President Obama to start tearing shit up,â said majority leader Harry Reid, D-Nev. âFuck up Washington real good, so when those assholes take the oath of office in January, there wonât be nothing left, not even a copy of âAtlas Shruggedâ for them to swear on.â The sentiment was echoed by Hillary Clinton, who remains the Democrat most likely toÂ getÂ her partyâs nomination for the 2016 presidential race. âTell you what, Mr. President,â she said in an interview with NPR. âThink of how cocky [Republican minority leader] Mitch McConnell is right now, drunk off bourbon and strutting around like he owns you, then imagine wiping the smile off that smug prickâs face by dissolving Congress and razing the Capitol building to the fucking ground.â A few prominent Democrats were calling for moderation, saying that while itâs perfectly normal if Obama orders airstrikes on the childhood home of Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, the president should avoid taking executive action to have Republican congressmen chained and paraded naked around the National Mall before allowing rabid spectators to beat them with sticks. âConfiscate their property, imprison their relatives, and make them sing and dance to silly show tunes before the American people, sure,â said Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. âBut if you hold a mock trial in which you allow a hysterical mob calling themselves âa peopleâs tribunalâ to sentence them to death by firing squad, make sure the rifles are loaded with blanks, okay?â Â
