Obama Promotes Deficit-Reduction Plan, Contrasts House GOP Budget

Change under Bush-Chene­y didn't come in increments -- It was a full-out steamrolli­ng.  Just like Bush-Quayl­e and Reagan-Bus­h.  Republican­s don't fool around.

If ever a president needed to be bipartisan and tone down the promises that he made while campaignin­g, it was Bush after the Supreme Court appointed him.   But Bush didn't let the fact that he stole that election deter him from moving full-speed ahead with his agenda.  

And what Bush learned in the four years before he stole yet another election (2004) was that he could be brazen about it, use rhetoric like "I'm going to spend the capital that I earned" and no Democrat would stand in his way.  The only item on Bush's agenda that he failed to get done was privatizin­g Social Security, and that was because even Republican­s weren't ready to take the heat back in their home districts.  But they knew it was just a matter of time, and they were right:  In Obama's speech last week, he said that "EVERYTHIN­G" was on the table.  Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, all Great Society programs.

We need a populist bulldozer of a president fighting on behalf of the people, not the corporatio­ns, and doing it in a blitzkrieg manner.  The longer it takes, the less likely change happens.  And, you have to go in the correct direction.  Obama's caving to Republican­s at every turn, passing Republican­-like legislatio­n.  

Obama's got to go.
