The 2012 Speculatron Weekly Roundup

The old "lesser of two eviIs" argument just doesn't work anymore.

Obama's continuing just about all of the BushCheney policies, even going BushCo one better:  How do any of Obama's 'most ardent supporters­' explain Obama's doctrine that presidents have the right to k!ll American citizens with no due process, no oversight, and his push for 'indefinite preventive detention' and no transparen­cy of anything a president asserts should be his secret?   Pure Kafka.

As a Democrat, I don't know how any Democrat can get behind this.  

At this point, I would argue that Obama and Democrats are worse.  Bush-Chene­y make no bones or excuses for what they've done and who they are, whereas Obama and Democrats ran on knowing better.

In his speech this past week, Obama left EVERYTHING on the table.  That includes Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security.

Just as Obama ran on single payer, then backed down and said he wouldn't sign any legislatio­n that didn't include a public option and then reneged, I'm sure that in the weeks ahead he's going to be cutting another secret deal with Republican­s, just like the lousy health insurance legislatio­n and tax cuts for the rich, that ends Great Society programs.  It's Obama's MO.  It's how he operates.

Obama is not a man of the People; he's a tool of the Corporatio­ns.  

Why should Obama and Democrats do anything for you if they know they've got you over a barrel, that you're going to vote for them no matter what, because you're terrified of Republican­s?
