Obama says Congress is dysfunctional...... well, DUUUUUHHHHH


Jamie Dupree 
Obama calls Congress "dysfunctional" but says he's confident he can get immigration reform bill approved

That's the tweet I got from Jamie Dupree, Washington Correspondent.  For the record, Dupree is the ONLY person I bother listening to or reading for actual news out of DC.  You can follow him on Twitter at https://twitter.com/jamiedupree or catch his blog from the AJC at http://www.wsbradio.com/weblogs/jamie-dupree/.  I suggest you do both, as he's all over it like stink on the Congressional records.  

But back to the topic at hand.  OBAMA says CONGRESS is dysfunctional.  Isn't that a bit of slight-of-hand on his part?  It's like when two white-trash neighbors are feuding, and one calls the cops on the other because the broken down car parked in his front yard is an eyesore.  Then the other neighbor calls the cops of the first neighbor and claims the motor swinging in his tree devalues the trailer, and it just escalate from there.  

Here be some facts:

1) Congress is dysfunctional.  Thanks for pointing out the obvious, Barack.
2) The Executive branch is dysfunctional.  SNAP!  Didn't see that comin, didja, Obama?
3) The Judicial branch is dysfunctional.   
4) Politics is dysfunctional.  

For the record, I feel it's important that I take a moment to point out that Barack Obama was absolutely, 100% correct in his assessment of Congress.  Even if it is a case of the pot calling the kettle black.
