Obama's Bogus Explanation For Troubles: Too Much Regulation

Tuesday, January 18, 2011


"Wow. You really invest a lot in that power of the bully pulpit thing don't you? Have you ever tried to convince the folks in the NRA about anything? Do you get the 24 hour news cycle?

This is not something that Obama should invest political capital in right now - not because it is not an important issue but because it would be WASTED political capital"

Wow.

Obama "shouldn't invest political capital in this".

He couldn't be bothered investing political capital in a public option, or single payer.

He couldn't be bothered investing political capital in ending Bush's tax cuts for the rich.

He couldn't be bothered closing Guantanamo­.

He couldn't be bothered with windfall profits taxes on gas, cap and trade, EFCA, getting MMS to regulate BP before it destroyed the Gulf Of Mexico and created a Extinction Level Event, etc..

A real stimulus, ending tax breaks to corporatio­ns for outsourcin­g Americans' jobs, implementi­ng a real HAMP and keeping millions of Americans from foreclosur­e and homelessne­ss? 

Nah, Obama can't be bothered.

He can't be bothered with too big to fail, too big to nail and too big to jail because he's too busy extending the Patriot Act, the drug war, gutting FOIA, expanding the wars into new sovereign nations, continuing reindition and t0rture, involuntar­y preventive detention and k!IIing of American citizens with no due process, legislativ­e or judicial oversight.

And given your response to the question "What policies of Obama's do you like?" ("tax breaks/pol­icies (of the Catfood Commission­)"), just exactly how do you come to call yourself a Democrat?  Or do you?
