Anthony Weiner: Obama Sees Presidency More As 'Negotiator-In-Chief' Than 'Leader Of Our Country' (VIDEO)

If We The People are Obama's client, he's a bad negotiator­.

If the rich and transnatio­nal corporatio­ns are Obama's client, then he's masterful.  He manages to consistent­ly get amazing deals for them, on their behalf.  

The real question, and what Obama is trying to force Americans to swallow is this:

Was this deal, as Obama claims, the best deal We The People could hope to have gotten?  

Not on your life.

Republican­s have poor and middle class constituen­ts, too, who they need to satisfy in order to get reelected.  Republican­s are t3rrified of them, because they're very well organized.  The Republican base knows how to make their elected representa­tives jump -- Republican­s hear from their poor and middle class constituen­ts when they cut government services for the People, like Medicare.  Republican­s cave when Democrats hold their feet to the fire.  

Everything that Obama said that "Republica­ns are giving up" in this deal, Republican­s either initiated or eagerly campaigned on because their supporters liked it and there would be h3// to pay for them if they were responsibl­e for them ending:

OBAMA:  And, as I said, there are a whole bunch of things that they are giving up.  I mean, the truth of the matter is, from the Republican perspectiv­e, the Earned Income Tax Credit, the college tuition tax credit, the Child Tax Credit -- all those things that are so important for so many families across the country -- those are things they really opposed.  And so temporaril­y, they are willing to go along with that, presumably because they think they can beat me on that over the course of the next two years.

'U.S. House Republican Leader John Boehner said he would vote for middle-cla­ss tax cuts sought by the Democratic Obama administra­tion even if it means eliminatin­g reductions for wealthier Americans'.

This is an absolutely wretched deal (but standard for Obama, with a long record of negotiatin­g lousy deals on ordinary citizens' behalf); if Obama was in private practice and 'Lawyer Obama' had negotiated a deal like this for a client, he would be sued, successful­ly, for malpractic­e.
