Chuck T.’s in love, you guys. While we “real people” saw right through this afternoon’s post-Senate-vote presser, Todd was utterly captivated by President Obama’s manly tactic of blaming the GOP for his problems:
"Hobby horse" "shenanigans" "extremists" and "burn the house down". How POTUS described Congress today. GOP getting a taste of bully pulpit
— Chuck Todd (@chucktodd) September 27, 2013
Aw, snap! That GOP done got served from Obama’s bully pulpit. Chuck’s all over that action.
@chucktodd Is that all you got out of the press conference?

Pffft. He covered the most important thing, didn’t he? All we need to know is that Obama’s a man who gets things done and doesn’t take no lip from nobody. Nobody!
GOP gets a taste of the bully pulpit, while Chuck Todd gets a taste of Obama's balls. @NumbersMuncher

Yeesh. The truth may be ugly, but it’s still the truth. Chuck Todd is a hack.
@chucktodd His white house aide also compared GOP to suicide bombers. You going to call him on that Chuck?

@chucktodd Sounds to me like the sputtering insults of a child throwing a tantrum. #ObamaIsMad

Because that’s exactly what it was. Maybe next time Chuck gets the urge to try his hand at real reporting, he’ll use more accurate terminology:
@chucktodd you mean Bullshit pulpit.
— Tom T (@Tomtmd) September 27, 2013
Exactly.
