1) Yet another in a long line of weak attempts by right-wing hacks to blame President Obama for something he had nothing to do with. Even worse, the Republicans in congress had planned the government shutdown all along. By holding funding for government services hostage, they hoped to derail the Affordable Care Act, and foolishly assumed Obama would vote to defund his signature legislative accomplishment. But it backfired. Public opinion turned against the GOP just as it did during the 1996 shutdown, and they had no choice but to fold under the mounting pressure. So to save face, they decided to do what they do best, blame Obama. 2) A term to describe the continual Republican-led effort in congress to obstruct anything and everything proposed by President Obama, even small stuff like the President's judicial nominees.
