Obama has an even more barbed sense of humor than we thought. This from his recent negotiations with the House GOP:
Quote | Republicans continue to insist that tax cuts be added to the package, and some spending cut from it. They've won at least one victory so far, but aren't likely to wring many more concessions from the administration. During his meeting with the House Republicans, Obama was reportedly asked about coming to compromise on taxes by including an income tax cut. He responded by insisting that there was a need to focus at least in part on payroll taxes, to help families that don't pay income tax (most Americans pay more in payroll tax than they do in income tax), saying, "feel free to whack me over the head because I probably will not compromise on that part." He added, according to NBC's First Read, that he understands there's a time for politics and for the GOP to "beat him up," and said, "I understand that and I will watch you on Fox News and feel bad about myself." |
Yow. I wonder if any of the Goopers realized they were being made fun of?
