Vitter pill: GOP colleagues "scared to death" by Obama's popularity

By GottaLaff

And what do Republicans do when they feel threatened? Hint: Smear and obstruct... David Vitter, yes that David Vitter, smells fear:

Sen. David Vitter (R-La.) said Tuesday that his fellow Republican Senate colleagues are “scared to death” by President Barack Obama’s popularity.

“What’s been going on in a lot of these votes is that some folks are just scared to death quite frankly of the new president and his polling numbers and sort of holding under the table,” Vitter told radio host Laura Ingraham. [...]

Vitter insisted that that “half” of the Senate Republicans are intimidated by Obama’s high approval rating, which according to the latest Gallup poll stands at 64 percent.

As evidence, he pointed at the 19 Republicans who voted to confirm Eric Holder as Attorney General. [...]

[Vitter] voted against each of Obama’s appointments that was not confirmed by a voice vote.

There's your obstruction. For smearing, tune in to any cable news station. It should only take seconds before you find what you're looking for.
