Your problem is you base your disrespect on on a lie. Read the complete quote not an out of context spinet.

NOPE! $itch McConnell, traitor, SAID(and has never refuted saying) the Republican's goal was to make sure Obama doesn't have a second term. That SHOULD be construed as a death threat but it wasn't..
But they acted on it by blocking, filibustering, being bull headed, refusing to compromise, and kicking bi-partisanship to the curb...all to make Obama look bad....they NEVER once considered doing anything to help this country..NEVER!!!!!!!!!

And Dirty Harry refused to take a chance on a compromise with the House on the budgets they sent over to him. He knew that if he allowed them to be debated enough Dems just might vote for compromise and then the credit card method of spending would be submersed. You talk about compromise and all Harry ever thought about was "My way of the highway" as far as compromise is concerned.

I still don't want Obama to have a second term and that is because he never offered to compromise, at all.

Did he ever really deserve his first term? That election, I believe, is a prime reason why we need a constitutional amendment to allow run off elections at the national level.
