Republicans on Friday expressed outrage at the new leadership style
that President Obama has demonstrated in the aftermath of the midterm
elections, and demanded a return of the “passive and unassertive Obama
to which we have grown accustomed.”
In a joint statement, House Speaker John Boehner and
his counterpart in the Senate, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, accused
Obama of “engaging in a flagrant display of leadership that we find
deeply offensive.”
“For the past six years, we have enjoyed a President
who has been conciliatory and acquiescent to the point of emasculation,”
Boehner said. “We want that President back.”
McConnell threatened that if Obama does not return to
his weak and ineffectual ways at once, “he will face the prospect of
being a two-term President.”
At the White House, the President did not respond to
the Republicans’ remarks, telling reporters that he planned to work
through the weekend raising the minimum wage, granting amnesty to
immigrants, and legalizing marijuana.
