Obama Resorted to Derogatory Name Calling.
The term “tea baggers” is a term used to insult the Tea Party and its supporters. Usually someone in the Oval Office would have enough decorum to not use such a statement against a group of people, but that’s not the case with Obama.
In a hand-written letter to a Texas schoolteacher, Obama said pursuing Obamacare was “the right thing to do.” He then made a statement in “support” of ‘tea baggers’ who protest the ACA. How is that support of the Tea Party when you just insulted them? So childish.
Obama wrote the letter on official White House paper in response to Thomas J Ritter. Ritter had written Obama in regards to the “toxic” political environment that surrounds the ACA. And, naturally, Obama came back swinging.
“This bill has caused such a divisive, derisive and toxic environment,” Ritter wrote, according to the Post. “The reality is that any citizen that disagrees with your administration is targeted and ridiculed.”
They are targeted and ridiculed! That’s what liberals do! They whine, insult, bare their fangs, and try to hurt anyone who attacks their policy. It’s all they know how to do in order to save face.
Ritter added, “I hesitated to write for fear of some kind of retribution,” he added. “I watched you make fun of tea baggers and your press secretary make fun of Ms. [Sarah] Palin which was especially beneath the dignity of the White House … Do the right thing not the political thing. Suggest a bill that Americans can support.”
Much to Ritter’s surprise, he got this response:
“I … appreciate your concern about the toxic political environment right now. I do have to challenge you, though, on the notion that any citizen that disagrees with me has been ‘targeted and ridiculed’ or that I have ‘made fun’ of tea baggers … [I] defend strongly the right of everyone to speak their mind — including those who call me ‘socialist’ or worse,” Obama wrote.
Well he may defend strongly the right for people to speak their mind, but he sure as heck gets defensive when they do. And what fate shall befall this infamous hand-written letter? Ritter is putting it up for sale on momentsintime.com.
Well played Ritter, well played!
