Worst Democrat & President Ever -
Obama to blink first on Social Security
By: Robert Kuttner
The tax deal negotiated by President Barack Obama and Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky is just the first part of a multistage drama that is likely to further divide and weaken Democrats.Did Democratic voters put Obama into office to cut deals with Republican
The second part, now being teed up by the White House and key Senate Democrats, is a scheme for the president to embrace much of the Bowles-Simpson plan — including cuts in Social Security. This is to be unveiled, according to well-place d sources, in the president’ s State of the Union address.
The idea is to pre-empt an even more draconian set of budget cuts likely to be proposed by the incoming House Budget Committee chairman, Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), as a condition of extending the debt ceiling. This is expected to hit in April.
White House strategists believe this can also give Obama “credit” for getting serious about deficit reduction — now more urgent with the nearly $900 billion increase in the deficit via the tax cut deal.
How to put this politely? For a Democratic president, this approach is bad economics and worse politics.

The weapon used was purchased legally.
The extended magazine had been banned during the 1990s, but that law expired in 2004.
Up until then, 10 bvllets per clip was the limit.
We know exactly which members of Congress, both sides of the aisle, voted against keeping the ban in place. The roll call vote in the Senate on the (Dianne) Feinstein amendment to extend the ban, March 2, 2004. Russ Feingold lovers who want Feingold to primary Obama, note his "nay" vote, as well as other Democrats still serving, like HarryReid, MaryLandrieu, TimJohnson (not voting), BenNelson, MaxBaucus.
In 2007, Representa tive Carolyn Maloney's bill to reinstate the ban with 67 co-sponsors (Gabrielle Giffords was not among them) went nowhere.
HR 6257 (a bill to reinstate the ban on assault weapons, as well as to expand the list of banned weapons, for ten years) was introduced in June 2008, and then got buried in a House subcommittee one month later, where it d!ed at the end of that Congress (2008).
After Obama and Democrats won the 2008 elections and took control of the White House and Congress, Dianne Feinstein said in April 2009 about introducing legislation in the Senate to reinstate the Assault Weapons Ban, "I wouldn't bring it up now."
Obama has stated that he wouldn't push for the reinstatement of the Assault Weapons Ban.
Neither Republicans nor Democrats are willing to take on the gvn lobby (or any corporate industry), nor spend the money on the prevention side (funding for mental health treatment, public education and social safety nets, etc.).
In Obama's speech last night, he perpetuated the "overheated political rhetoric made Loughner do it" l!e when what directed caused it was a mentally ill person who legally got the weapon.
When the investigation of Saturday's sh00ting is complete, we're going to know exactly which victims were the recipients of bvllets 11-33. We're going to know if the 9-year-old would still be alive had the ban been kept in place.
We can now say that donations from the NRA to politicians are literally bl00d money, and any politician who isn't actively calling for gun control and the flood of monies for mental health treatment (and using every t00L in their arsenals, including the unique persuasive speechifying we saw last night) has bl00d on their hands.
Just like Bush's attempts to conflate Saddam Hussein with 9/11, since Saturday there have been attempts to conflate the sh00ting with t3rr0rism, beginning with the release of photograph s from the White House of Obama with National Security Advisor Tom Donilon, incoming Chief of Staff Bill Daley, Deputy Chief of Staff Jim Messina, Director of Communicat ions Dan Pfeiffer, and Assistant to the President for Legislativ e Affairs Phil Schiliro. Also taking part in the call were Attorney General Eric H. Holder, Jr., Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, and FBI Director Robert Mueller in the Situation Room on Saturday after the shooting.
I was startled to see the White House release that photo on Saturday, and since then there has been one politically motivated effort after another, attempts at embroidering t3rr0rism and Republicans into the shooting, not dealing with the actual facts of this situation, causes and prevention.
And just like the false conflation during Bush has gotten us no resolution of 9/11, this conflation does nothing to fix the real cause of tragedies like this and prevent them from occurring again. Which is the point and the purpose for doing it.
If Obama and Democrats were serious, they'd be calling for gun control/regulation and a robust policy regarding mental health services nationwide. But that's not what they're going to be doing.
So what?
It was Jared Lee Loughner's birthday, too, or close enough (9/10). If he's executed, will he be wrapped in that flag when he's buried?
This was a flag that flew at the WTC, "represent atives from the NY Fire Department " brought this flag to this child's funeral. There is no connection whatsoever between these people, this event, and this child.
This is lNSANE, and it's inappropriate that any government officials should be participating in the conflation of two events with no connection, in order to prey upon the emotions of the public -- Just after the president calls for calm (so much for how effective he actually was).
9/11 Flag Unfurled, Raised At Funeral Of Christina Taylor Green
===============================================
Why?
The weapon used was purchased legally. The extended magazine had been banned during the 1990s, but that law expired in 2004 (Gabrielle Giffords supported ending the ban, by the way, supports gun rights in general, opposed the Washington DC gun ban, and signed an amicus brief with the US SupremeCou rt in support of overturning the ban).
Up until then, 10 bvllets per clip was the limit.
We know exactly which members of Congress, both sides of the aisle, voted against keeping the ban in place. The roll call vote in the Senate on the (Dianne) Feinstein amendment to extend the ban, March 2, 2004. Russ Feingold lovers who want Feingold to primary Obama, note his "nay" vote, as well as other Democrats still serving, like HarryReid, MaryLandrieu, TimJohnson (not voting), BenNelson, MaxBaucus.

In Obama's speech last night, he perpetuated the "overheated political rhetoric made Loughner do it" l!e when it's.
When the investigation of Saturday's sh00ting is complete, we're going to know exactly which victims were the recipients of bvllets 11-33. We're going to know if the 9-year-old would still be alive had the ban been kept in place.

"How, in your opinion, does the political ddmob we have in WDC dodge the "politicizing a tragedy" accusation that would be inevitable?"
========================================================
They can't dodge it, they're already being accused of it, And accurately so, if it's true that Loughner turns out to be mentally ill and not politically affiliated or particularly motivated by any of the usual suspects (Limbaugh, Palin, Tea Party, Beck, et al), and Obama stuck with the "heated rhetoric" theme in his speech last night.
The problem is they're using it to accomplish the wrong things. They're using it to protect the NRA and tax cuts for the rich (not increasing money for mental health services). They're using to avoid working for the People and the common good.
The real answer to such a charge should be, "So what?" Politicizing events, tragedies, is how politicians do their jobs. It's the coin of their realm. You use anything in the public eye as an opportunity. Politicians were trying to get provisions in the Patriot Act through for years, and it took selling it for a completely different purpose (9/11) for them to ultimately get it done. And, today, when the Patriot Act is used, it's overwhelmingly used for drug crimes (what they wanted it for in the first place), not t3rr0rist threats. Over 800 'delayed notice'-subpoenas issued last year for drug crimes, and just 6 for t3rr0r!st investigations.
For those who don't know what a 'delayed notice'-subpoena is, it's where the police can enter and search your home, your car, storage facility, etc., without your knowledge, without you being present, then they put everything back together before you return so that you have no idea that anybody has been in your stuff. It could be days, weeks, months, years, before you're notified that a search took place.

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.
"If you haven't noticed, he's been trying to lead, but it's hard to lead when you are being called a Nigerian Muslim, terrorist, socialist, marxist, anti-American, liar, criminal and all those other choice words. One man can't do it all alone, they have to work together, but as you said the money that's been pooled in these campaigns seems to be restraints on people that keeps them from doing the right thing."
=====================================================
What astonishing bvllchit.
Cl!nton was called a mvrderer, a drug dealer, a philanderer, a liar, a criminal, as was Bush and Cheney and Reagan and Bush 1, and they all led.
Obama is a fraud who is being aided and abetted by apologists like you. The longer that you keep making excuses for his failure to perform, the more you guarantee that he'll continue to work against what you allege to want, your and my interests. It's all up to you.
"Actually there is a provision in the Healthcare plan to expand services for mental health, which is much needed. However, if the Republican 's have their way it will be repealed. The Rich don't care about the mentally stable, why would they care about the mentally unstable?"
===================================================
You do not know what you're talking about.
You need to read the legislation and not just parrot sound bytes about legislation you haven't a clue as to how it works.
Short version of the "mental health services" in Obama's health insurance giveaway act:
Do you know what Medicaid is?
Do you know that states are required to share in the costs of Medicaid, and that states are going bankrupt, and they are cutting Medicaid services if not opting out of having to provide Medicaid services altogether.
In Arizona alone, more than 45% of mental healthcare services recipients have been forced off the rolls since Obama signed the legislation into law.
And we're not even talking about mental healthcare coverage through health insurance policies, which the legislation doesn't address at all.
No cost controls, no limits on deductibles, no limits on co-pays, and where is that push Harry Reid promised for a public option "if we only pass Obama's legislation now" (March, 2010)?
Republicans aren't repealing anything -- They work for the same masters that Democrats work for. This attempt at repeal is for show, for their constituents, the little people.
At this point, the NRA is a t3rr0rist organization.
But I'm not talking about nor suggesting shutting down the NRA; I'm talking about getting NRA lobbyists out of the legislative process.
Nobody is talking about giving up a Constitutional right -- You don't need automatic weapons to hunt, and if you think your weapons are going to come in handy to stave off government overreach, you've yet to meet the Department of Defense. You don't stand a chance against the awesome power of the US military, so learn the lessons of W@co and Rvby R!dge: When the feds tell you to come out with your hands up, DO IT!
As far as the Fairness Doctrine being "a joke", it was the single biggest factor that can be pointed to in the dvmbing down of the American electorate. It helped keep Americans informed on the all arguments of the issues from 1936 to when Reagan ended it in the 1980s.
You do not know what you're talking about.
You need to read the legislation and not just parrot sound bytes about legislation you haven't a clue as to how it works.
Short version of the "mental health services" in Obama's health insurance giveaway act:
Do you know what Medicaid is, dear?
Do you know that states are required to share in the costs of Medicaid, and that states are going bankrupt, and they are cutting Medicaid services if not opting out of having to provide Medicaid services altogether.
In Arizona alone, more than 45% of mental healthcare services recipients have been forced off the rolls since Obama signed the legislation into law.
And we're not even talking about mental healthcare coverage through health insurance policies, which the legislation doesn't address at all.
No cost controls, no limits on deductibles, no limits on co-pays, and where is that push Harry Reid promised for a public option "if we only pass Obama's legislation now" (March, 2010)?
When you're in Congress or the White House, you have a responsibility to problem-solve and prevent tragedies like this from happening. That's the job.
So what can we expect, aside from Obama making speeches lauding heroes and chastising heated political rhetorical speech?
After observing Obama's powerful speaking abilities again, will he use that talent to benefit those who put him into power in 2008, the People, to work on their behalf?
Will the NRA finally be shown the door, expelled from the legislative process, and automatic weapons banned? Will Congress reinstate the ban on assault weapons that expired in 2004? These extended magazines had been banned prior to 2004. Up until then, 10 bvllets per clip was the limit. We know exactly which members of Congress, both sides of the aisle, voted against keeping the ban in place. FWIW, those of you who just love Russ Feingold and want him to primary Obama, he voted no on reinstating the ban. When the investigation of Saturday's sh00ting is complete, we're going to know exactly which victims were the recipients of bvllets 11-33. We're going to know if the 9-year-old would still be alive had the ban been kept in place. We can now say that donations from the NRA to politicians are literally bl00d money.
Can public schools across the nation now expect monies to be reinstated for counseling and mental health screening and treatment?
How about reinstating public facilities for the emotionally disturbed; money for mental health hospitals?
How about that public option for healthcare, and expanded coverage for mental health treatment?
Is the FCC now going to bring back the Fairness Doctrine and regulate h.a.t.e radio?
That is what Obama and Democrats should be talking about: Controlling guns and taking on the NRA. Full throttle. Taking on all corporate money in politics, too. But they won't. Because they've got bl00d on their hands. They came into office in 2006 and 2008 having decided to abandon gun control and regulation, in spite of the People's support of the ban and for gun control.
Obama and Democrats should be hitting hard now on expanding mental health services nationwide, too. Mental illness and poverty go hand-in-hand. We're going to see more 'Saturdays' like the last one in Tucson as the economy worsens, more people losing their jobs and homes and becoming desperate. We've got huge problems in this country, and we need leadership, not 'ministry' from Obama.
So what do you think Obama and Democrats are going to do to prevent another tragedy like this from happening? This wasn't the first time a cr@zy man got a gun capable of k!lling a great number of people in a short period of time and actually did it. Nor was it the second time, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, or even twentieth.
