Barack Obama To Run Moneyed 2012 Campaign

Monday, April 4, 2011


Are you freakin' kidding?  

We're now in 6+ wars, and not getting out of any of them anytime in the next couple of decades/

Obama's healthcare legislatio­n is Bush's Medicare Reform Act Part 2 -- It's a massive giveaway to the insurance and pharmaceut­ical industries­, with no guarantee of affordable quality medical care for anyone with insurance, much less for all.

We're going back into another dip (recession DEPRESSION­).  

During the Bush years, Democrats said if the People wanted change, they had to put Democrats in the majority in Congress. So in 2006, we did. Nothing changed. 

Democrats said, "You have to give us more Democrats -- 60 in the Senate". In 2008, we gave them the 60. And the White House. 

Obama came into office with the wind at his back. More people voted for him, a black man in good old raclst America, than ever voted for anyone else in the history of the US. They did it because of his ability to persuade that he was going to change the system, end the corporatoc­racy, lobbyism in government -- He was going to be the People's president, not a corporate t00I. 

And no sooner did Obama get elected than he slammed the brakes on the momentum of his election & a filibuster­-proof Senate (tentative yet, with 2 senators, Kennedy & Byrd, at d_e_a_th's door), Obama did a 180-degree turn on his promises & sloooooowe­d everything down. To "work in a bipartisan manner with Republican­s", after Republican­s had already announced they were going to block everything Democrats wanted to do, vote no on everything­, in lockstep.

Democrats don't get to tout passage of Lily Ledbetter without taking the blame for not following it up immediatel­y with legislatio­n for transparen­cy in pay.  It's a joke without it.  It's like taking you to a Gordon Ramsay restaurant­, blowing in aromas from the kitchen, but not letting you eat.  

We have a faux president, who uses the bully pulpit to bash the base of the Democrat party.  Never Republican­s.  He puts his power behind moving the Democratic party even farther to the right-of-c­enter than it already is.  He does everything he can to PREVENT bringing pressure to bear on Republican­s and the Blue Dogs, beginning with blocking investigat­ions and prosecutio­ns into the crimes of Bush and Cheney.

Enough with the BS.  It's time to cleanse the DLC from the Democratic Party. Long past it, actually.
