Medicaid Expansion To Poorest Southerners Denied By Republicans

Friday, November 9, 2012

Democratic House Candidates Received More Votes Than Republicans


I don't think you're getting my point.

Obama is Democrat-In-Name-Only.  He supports and makes possible the Republican plans for privatizing government and the resources that belong to all of us, as well as deregulating and ending social safety nets.  If you liked Reagan and Nixon, Obama is your man.  

That's true for all "new" Democrats, or Democrats controlled by the DLC/No Labels/Third Way.  That means Andrew Cuomo and Martin O'Malley.  They don't like populist power, particularly O'Malley.  Andrew Cuomo is not his father's kind of Democrat.  Bill Clinton is not a liberal Democrat.  They're all pro-corporate Democrats and Hillary is to the right of Bill.

Unless and until you learn the ins and outs of rhetoric and the policy positions of those controlling the Democratic Party, the 99% is going to continue down the road of tyranny by the 1%.

That doesn't even make sense on its face.

If they wanted to distance themselves from Obama, they wouldn't be complaining about him.

Is defending the insupportable just a knee-jerk reflex to you ObamaZombies?

It is a fact that Obama did only one robocall for a Democrat and that was for Tammy Duckworth (and she was a candidate, not an incumbent).

It is also a fact that the House passed ACA with a vote of 219 to 212, with 34 Democrats and all 178 Republicans voting against it.  All members of the Progressive Caucus (81) voted yea for it.
