Cornel West Spars With Ed Schultz About Obama (VIDEO)

Cornel West you are not helping matters.

==========­==========­==========­==========­=====

On the contrary, it's you and Obama's other 'most ardent supporters­' who aren't helping matters.

Obama has continued just about every policy of BushCo and is getting Republican legislatio­n passed into law.  You and Obama's fans don't go after him and Democrats, but instead you say, "Please sir, may I have another?" and tell everybody else to shut up. 

Of those Obama supporters who don't believe him to be a liberal but a centrist, they say that he always has been a centrist & that those Democratic voters who voted for him because they believed him to be a populist, a liberal, weren't listening (forget the fact that Obama ran an aggressive progressiv­e campaign, and to the left of Hillary). And, they say, conservati­ves who insist Obama's a liberal are either stew_pid or so far right and unpolitica­lly savvy, they don't even belong svcking up space and time on political discussion threads.

To those who thought that during the 2008 campaign, Obama was a moderate and wasn't trying to deceive anyone, what did you think he meant when you heard him saying during the campaign that people had to stay involved after the election, that they couldn't just vote for him, go away for four years and expect that he would do what they had hoped?  

What did you think when he said that "there are powerful interests working against what the people want, and if you want me to do your bidding, you would have to make me do it"?

What did you think he was talking about?

Did you think he was just being honest, admitting he could be corrupted? Did you think he was trying to deceive centrists, corporatis­ts, into believing he was really on their side but liberals and progressiv­es could get him to keep his promises to them if they sat on him, kept after him?

Why would 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?
