Marco thinks that despite the fact that the House has a GOP majority, the Dems can somehow get everything that Marco wishes through, they just are choosing not to do it. (Despite the fact that even the Dems are not as far left as he is in the first place and even when we had the majority in both houses we had substantial GOP obstructionism.)

Obama and the DLC worked their butts off to
PREVENT more progressiv
es/liberal
s from getting elected. Obama and the DLC have put the power of the White House, the DNC, and the Democratic congressio
nal committees behind Blue Dogs, Republican
s and Independen
ts over progressiv
es/liberal
s and real Democrats. Some, but not all, examples:
Blue Dog Blanche Lincoln over progressiv
e Democrat Lt. Governor Bill Halter.
Republican
-turned-In
dependent Arlen Specter over progressiv
e Democrat Joe Sestak.
Republican
-turned-In
dependent Lincoln Chaffee over Democrat Frank Caprio (which, in turn, is an effective endorsemen
t of the Republican John Loughlin over Democrat David Cicilline for the congressio
nal seat Democrat Patrick Kennedy is retiring from, and all of the other seats up for grab in Rhode Island).
Republican
-turned-In
dependent Charlie Crist over liberal Democrat Kendrick Meek.
By the way, by getting involved in the election at the primaries' stage, Obama became the first sitting president in US history to interfere with the citizens' very limited rights in this democratic republic to select who they will trust to make laws to which they consent to be governed.
Citizens have little enough of a Constituti
onally-gua
ranteed role within this democracy as it is without a president usurping them. We have the right to vote, but not to have our ballots counted (the founders were nothing if not ironic). But to have a president enter into our choices at the most basic level, state primaries, is an abuse of the process.
Obama and the DNC could have cut off support to any Blue Dogs, cut money, cut committee assignment
s, etc., but did not.
This is exactly the bunch that Obama and the pvppet-mas
ters who control him want in office. On both sides of the aisle. Obama, Ds & Rs in office, working on behalf of transnatio
nal corporatio
ns.
