Obama's Arizona Speech: 'I Want America To Be As Good As She Imagined It'

^ - Br@!nwashed

Same old tired rhetoric, excuses, to which I've shown you over and over again why it's just not true, yet there's just no breaking through to you.

For instance, Harry Reid has always had the power to exercise his discretion and play hardball with Republicans on their use of the 'silent' or 'passive/sitting' filibuster (threatening to filibuster, telling Reid that if he brings such and such a bill to the floor for a vote, they'll filibuster). Harry has just taken their word on that, said, "Ok, I won't bring it to the floor" and lets Republicans get away with it. He has the power to force them to actually do it, and the very few times he's used it, Republican s cave and the legislation Republicans don't like and didn't want to see passed gets passed. It's called Rule 22, and you and Obama's other apologists don't seem to know it or believe it.

There are those who argue about changing the rules and make the claim that Democrats couldn't do it until a new Congress was seated. Also not true. I know that you don't hear this in the media, but then why would the corporate media want to empower the People?

Obama is pushing through his agenda; it's just that you refuse to accept that his agenda is pushing through pro-corporate (Republican) legislation.

I can't help that you're ig.no.rant and insist on remaining so. I can do something about making sure that others don't wind up like you.
