NEW YORK (AP) -- Aligning himself with a public fed up with economic uncertainty and Washington gridlock, President Barack Obama declared Thursday: "There is nothing wrong with our country. There is something wrong with our politics."
His toughly worded message - he said there was frustration in his voice, in case anyone missed the point - came amid a series of polls showing that people are disgusted with political dysfunction and are dispensing blame all around, including on Obama.
Obama aired his frustration with the ways of Washington at an event in Michigan before pivoting to his re-election campaign and a pair of big-money fundraisers in New York City.
He delivered a condensed version of that message at a fundraiser at the lower Manhattan home of movie producer Harvey Weinstein, where celebrities Gwyneth Paltrow and Jimmy Fallon, were among the approximately 50 guests who paid $35,800 each to attend.
Obama said he told his Michigan audience that it deserves better than what it's been getting from Washington.
"They look at what's happening in Washington and they think these folks are really from outer space because they don't seem to understand how critical it is for us all to work together, Republicans, Democrats, independents, in order to move this country forward," Obama said.

Oh My Gawd!!!!! Is this clown for real? Is he really saying to people that he was the one that wanted to compromise, and the others weren't? I guess that makes sense in liberal speak a compromise is when you see everything their way.
Look, don't take it from me, let's hear from Felonious Monk, an Obama supporter no doubt.....
Demo's, the Black community, liberals, and the most important group independents are leaving this clown in droves...Obama will be lucky to only lose by a close number, and not cause a conservative landslide....
Thanks for the Socialist cretin libs, you have single handedly woken up America to your lies, and exposed how dishonest it all is, now good luck ever getting this type of chance again in the near future.....hahahaha.....:2wave:
