GOP Strategy: Embrace Obama

House Minority Leader John Boehner

House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio)

?The House of Representatives was gaveled into its first session of the Obama presidency at noon Wednesday. At that hour, Rep. John Boehner (R-Ohio), the Republican minority leader in the House, was speaking to reporters about Democrats’ unwillingness to open up debate on the $850 billion stimulus package, and Republicans’ request to meet with the president on Thursday to push for their own proposals.

“President Obama asked for our input and asked for our ideas,” said Boehner. “And we’ve been working to develop those and want to share those with [the administration].”

Reporters pressed Boehner on what, precisely, the GOP wanted to emphasize to Obama. “I think it’s fair that we sit down with the president and share those ideas with him,” he said, “and not go through a process of sharing them with the press.”

House Republicans are in unfamiliar and politically unpromising territory. Unlike their counterparts in the Senate, they have very few methods of slowing down or stopping legislation they don’t like. Their influence was reduced two weeks ago by a rule change that effectively prevents members of the minority party from forcing votes on controversial amendments, one of the few cudgels the party had in the House.

In response, Republicans are attempting to link themselves to the popular Obama administration while criticizing the work of the Democratic Congress. The goal is to oppose Democratic policy without being seen as opposing or obstructing the president, a posture that, they hope, will put them in better position to win back voters if the Democrats’ popularity falters.

“What Rep. Boehner and [Minority Whip] Rep. Eric Cantor (R-Va.) are doing is absolutely essential,” said Alex Brill, an economic research fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, who worked for the House Ways and Means Committee before the Democratic takeover in 2007. “They’re bringing to light the true effects of the Democrats’ proposals. They’re creating a dialogue. It’s the best that we can hope for right now.”

The strategy is only a little bit older than the Obama presidency. On Nov. 5, the then-president-elect met with House Republicans. In a comment that leaked out of the closed-door meeting, Obama told Republicans that “the monopoly on good ideas does not belong to a single party.” Immediately, Republican leaders started putting together a Working Group on Economic Solutions that would be, in Cantor’s words, “razor focused on job protection, preservation, and creation.”

Republican sources did not label the strategy “triangulation,” as a report in Roll Call did yesterday. But they did not deny that the portrayal of Obama as a working partner and the congressional Democrats as obstinate partisans was a reflection of the popularity of the two branches. The new president boasts approval ratings north of 70 percent; the Congress is mired in the 30s. “His message is bipartisanship,” said one Republican, referring to the president. “Their message is ‘trust us to spend your money.’”

Last week House Republicans pushed their cooperative measures on two fronts. On Jan. 14, members of the Republican Study Committee, the conservative caucus in the House, introduced an Economic Recovery and Middle-Class Tax Relief Act which included cutting income tax rates by five percent, partially repealing the capital gains tax, and slashing corporate tax rates from 35 percent to 25 percent. Cantor’s ad hoc group held one hearing on Jan.15, in which Mitt Romney, former eBay executive (and Romney/McCain economic adviser) Meg Whitman, AEI’s Alex Brill, and Grover Norquist of Americans for Tax Reform fielded friendly questions, with answers mirroring the content of the going-nowhere tax bill.

This week, Norquist praised the work of the House Republicans.

“We should not treat Obama, Reid, and Pelosi, the way that the Bush administration treated Iran-’You’re a bad person and we don’t want to talk to you,’” said Norquist. “We engage the Democrats by being cheerful and pleasant and open to conversation. They say they want 10 ideas? OK, here are 10 ideas. The next time they say they want 10 ideas, we say that they asked before, and, just for the record, they rejected our ideas. When you get to May, who’s the obstructionist and who’s the collaborator?”

Republicans staffers in the House wouldn’t immediately say whether this was a good summing-up of the strategy. They were hopeful about the president, and hopeful that Democrats wouldn’t scuttle his calls for bipartisanship. They also argued that the president would need more ideas from across the aisle because a new study by the Congressional Budget Office was bearish on the short-term stimulating effects of the Democratic proposal that President Obama supports. According to the report, only $136 billion of the $355 billion of spending in the proposed stimulus package would be spent by October 2010, a point emphasized when the office of Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), the Senate minority leader, distributed this to reporters.

“If this is a stimulus bill, call it a stimulus bill,” said Cantor spokesman Brad Dayspring. “If it’s a long-term spending bill, then call it a long-term spending bill.”

If any conservative activists have quibbles with the Republican strategy, of presenting their ideas as collaborative efforts with the president, they have kept quiet. The differences between now and the last time Republicans fought a new Democratic president from a position of weakness are stark. In 1993, Republicans did propose their own no-chance alternative to President Bill Clinton’s deficit-reducing, tax-increasing budget. Their Putting Jobs and the American Family First Act included spending caps, tax credits, and a capital gains tax cut. But Republicans under Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich declared early on that they would oppose any budget that included tax increases. The current crop of Republicans hope to define their differences with Democrats, and to curry favor with the public, by letting themselves be courted by the popular president.

“Regardless of what Obama says,” said Norquist, “Pelosi and Reid are not going to allow all of this to happen. If you’re in the Congress, you’re thinking ‘they’re going to double-cross me, they’re going to screw me.’ But even if you think that’s the likely endgame, why say that?”

The strategy might not be subtle, but it’s working for now. At the close of business on Wednesday, the White House announced that Cantor’s working group would be invited to the other end of Pennsylvania Avenue next week to discuss the stimulus package and the ideas they had been asked for.

I'm still amazed by the sense of entitlement demonstrated by Republican lawmakers. In the face of the mindboggling economic disaster handcrafted by Republican economic hegemony over the last 8 years, there is no evidence of remorse or shame among them. Instead, they are whining and puling about the lack of opportunity extended to them by Democrats.

Hey guys – you bankrupted the nation with your economic strategies, enriched your friends and mortgaged the future of the nation with no positive results whatsoever. So far, I can't think of a single reason you should be sitting at the table now. As a matter of fact, there's an awful lot of cleanup ahead of the country. Grab yourself an apron and start doing the dishes – It's how deadbeats work off tabs they are unable to pay.

After eight years of total control of our country resulting in the total destruction of our country do the Republians really believe that the same ideas that resulted in this will go anywhere?
If they had any concern for this country and the people who live here they would admit thier failures and try to help the president and the congress. If they choose to continue to obstruct the president and this congress they had better be prepared for the end of Republicanism and Conservatism. We the people have had enough.

“and slashing corporate tax rates from 35 percent to 25 percent. “

We've already seen this doesn't help anyone who needs help, unless you count the Chinese. That's where it 'trickles down.' What good do tax cuts do a family below the poverty line? 'Oh, just ignore them. They don't have enough to make significant campaign contributions. Call them 'slackers,' 'useless burdens on society,' and others. Opportunity should be preserved for people who can afford it. Don't fund entitlement programs. The more 'useless' who die, the better. If they can't afford the medicine that would keep them alive, they aren't going to contribute to campaigns, anyway.'

President Obama proposed some tax incentives in his original stimulus plan which publicly ruffled the feathers of congressional democrats thereby creating for himself the neccesary space to offer the Republican's proposals for even more massive tax incentives to the Democratic congressional caucus and then negotiate back to where he started from with a mix of spending projects and tax incentives. Republicans are grasping for straws with this nefarious image manipulation stategy, the American people are not idiots, and neither is the President they elected to resolve the damage that Republican ideological policy measures have dealt the country over the past 20 years. Tax incentives are a useful tool, but as history has shown us they cannot be the primary tool, businesses grow to scale, scale is determined by the ability of the market to support expansion, therefore tax incentives themselves under faltering market conditions may not induce the kind of growth conservatives are suggesting. A faltering business would be pressured to “stack the deck” with these tax incentives in efforts to stabilize their own balance sheets rather than take a measured risk and expand, much like the bailed out banks did, that would be a politically risky move by the President, no wonder conservatives are so fervently pushing for more handouts to corporations, while fighting any efforts by middle class working Americans to more easily gain a seat at the corporate decision making table. The ObamaWEBNET 2.0 People's Party will be contacting these senators and congressmen shortly with foot tosters, lets see how they dance then. They sound like John McCain's “me first , country second” politicians looking to regain power rather that restore the nation.

Excellent comments. Tax cuts merely pay for $25,000 a plate lobbying moshes and $$million$$ dollar office makeovers – they do NOT become part of a business tax strategy to grow and expand. On the other hand – tax INCENTIVES that create profit margins for new technology to grow or open up new markets abroad for economic expansion can work. Obama will be able to show the public the difference. And Norquist? Put him in a bathtub and open the drain……

The problem of the “left” versus the “right” in the U.S stems from our metaphors. We use left and right because when we look down at ourselves with our eyes we see a bilaterally symmetrical body somehow we think this is a decent analogy with the two opposing sides of our political system.

Neat.

And wrong!

It’s much more like, to keep using a body analogy, that the body of state has a grafted-on, Frankensteinish extra limb, sewn on willy nilly with bailing wire and duct tape and done so by drunken neurosurgeons. That monsterish limb would be the Republicans.

The reality is that our bilaterally symmetrical body image is marred by the freakish behavior of the alien limb.

I don’t have a suggestion for what to call this new metaphor to replace right and left. Just being aware that there is no symmetry might be enough.

Left and right comes from the French Revolutionary government, where the oppositional parties sat in the Legislative Assembly. Appropriately, the rightists were royalists (the king still alive at the time). Which explains why the Republican congress was so abjectly slavish to the delusional whims of Duh-bya.

At least the Republicans are consistent. You have to admit that. When times are good they say, “CUT TAXES ON RICH PEOPLE!” When times are bad they say, “CUT TAXES ON RICH PEOPLE!” When the economic outlook is mixed, they say, “CUT TAXES ON RICH PEOPLE!” When they're in power they say, “CUT TAXES ON RICH PEOPLE!” When they're out of power they say, “CUT TAXES ON RICH PEOPLE!”

And then, they go and play golf with these rich people, have fancy dinners with these rich people, spend weekends at the second and third homes of these rich people and privately admit that they are actually part of these rich people—or they're using all of their connections to join that club. Then these rich people give them more money to fund their campaigns, and/or give jobs to their family and friends. And these Republicans return to congress and say, “CUT TAXES ON RICH PEOPLE!”

And the cycle continues.

Any questions?

What's funny is that the Repugnicans have deluded themselves into thinking that their scheme will work. We know that the Repugs are lying liars and craven obstructionists (not to mention war mongers, war criminals and war profiteers) — and have been for decades and have been acting even more cravenly obstructionist for the past two weeks with their immature tizzy fits. Attempting to suck up to Obama isn't going to be seen as anything but what it is: a failed bait-and-switch by the worst used car salesmen in the world.

Meanwhile Bo(eh)ner is making comments like this to the press:

“How can you spend hundreds of millions of dollars on contraceptives?” Boehner asked. “How does that stimulate the economy?”

“Government can’t solve this problem,” he said.

Funny how the they're an expert on what will and won't solve the problem when they still won't admit their hand in CAUSING the problem.

This is the GOP games as usual. Nothing new under the sun on that side of the aisle. As usual they are more concerned about setting traps to regain power in the next election.

However, house Dems NEED to cooperate with the GOP reps 1) to keep the promise of bipartisonship that Obama made, and 2) to not slam the gate to this trap shut themselves. The GOP has shown themselves for what they are. The Dems need to mind their P's and Q's and stay above board if they are to have a hope of retaining what they have currently.

They quote the government accountability office, but they fail to add that the office only evaluated 40% of the bill and that they also said that 75% of the bill would be infused into the economy within 18 months. They cherry pick what they tell us. And as far as democrats not listening to republicans, republicans went almost unanimously with everything Bush wanted for the past eight years and the whole bunch of them shoved the democrats nose in the dirt at every opportunity for eight years. I'm hoping that the democrats will be able to rise above the anger that was generated by those actions, but it's pretty ripe for republicans like Boehner, McConnell, Cornyn and Cantor to chastise them about it!

I have voted with the republicans and i have voted with the democrats, and i think both sides are wrong… But I will say this about this transition period. For 8 years I have listened to liberals wine like babies about the government and all of the wrongs in the world; how they needed a new government to fix them. Come on… that strikes a note with everyone and don't act like it doesn't. Anyway, I wondered what would happen in the most heated part of the transition between parties. I payed very close attention and here is what happened in GA… The conservatives went back to work and the liberals kept complaining about the GOP. Again, I am not defending either party's actions. I understand the liberal gripe almost as much as the conservative… I just want to know if the liberals have noticed this phenomena of attitudes (and lifestyles) and what there take is. Mine is that I am not sure what party should govern, but I am pretty sure of the people i want to be under that government. I know this is an aged theme of ayn rand's philosophy, but i think we should think about these obvious signs and how they apply to us.

Go get 'em Obama!

Respectfully, your impression of what happened in GA and my impression of it are not the same. The Republicans in the General Assembly have managed to pass very, very little legislation of substance since coming to power, and the GA GOP leadership has spent a lot more time fighting among themselves than they have spent doing their jobs. Furthermore, at a time when the state is looking at a $2 billion shortfall for the next fiscal year, Gov. Perdue claims that he can't find funding for homeowner tax relief — at the same time he says he can find plenty of funding to continue abstinence-only sex education if Congress and President Obama do away with Federal funding for it.

Conservatives in GA went back to work? Uh-uh. I ain't seein' it.

As a former Republican and a former little-l Libertarian, I think that P. J. O'Rourke said it best. “Republicans are the party that claims government doesn't work. Then they get themselves elected and prove it.”

No wonder, they have kept mum on the criminal activities the Bush Criminal Syndicate as they push forward in their scheme to distress the middle class, the poor, and vulnerable of our country. He may yet have to use the tools BuschCo had set up but ultimately was too scared to use, in order to have some structure and discipline in the way we go about righting this ship.

Mr. President Obama Please treats us Iranian like European’s people

The Islamic Republic of Iran (IRI) and the Al-Qaida terrorist organizations are challenging the US Government influence in the Muslim world. They are not going to negotiate with the US Government for any peaceful settlement. Their goals are clear. They are trying to bleed the US Government financially first and then militarily later.
The Bush administrations’ was very helpful to IRI and Al-Qaida because of their own wrong policy of helping corrupt politicians and dictators of Muslim world.
Mr. President Obama; we hope you are going to change your policy now before it is too late. You have golden opportunity to save the interest of American people in the Muslim world. We hope that you are going to treat us “the Eryan or Iranian or Aryan people” like the US government treated the people of the Western Europe after World War II.

Firstly, Obama's approvals as measured by Gallup are at 68%; that's hardly “North of 70%.” Once again Weigel shows his extreme bias for Obama – the guy he voted for – and the Democrats.

Secondly, the GOP leadership is NOT! the GOP. Just because Boehner says it's so, doesn't mean libertarian Republicans, for example, like Cong. Tom McClintock and Cong. Jeff Flake, are going to follow him.

Weigel needs to stop drinking the Kool-Aid. Not everyone is scared by the Communist Obama. Some of us WILL fight back. And that includes many in Congress on the Republican side.
