Obama Issues Veto Threat As Government Shutdown Looms

Thursday, April 7, 2011


Your post is legitimate­. I did not deny that. My point was that he is under any analytical framework the far lesser of two evils. I for one do not want GOP appointing supreme court justices, don't want them fashioning tax policy or ramming their social policy or environmen­tal policy down our throats. Do you want me to say that I have been disappoint­ed? OK, I have been disappoint­ed. But the only point that I was trying to make is still valid- utterly valid.

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

The old "lesser of two eviIs" argument.  In spite of the fact that Obama's continuing just about all of the BushCheney policies, even going BushCo one better:  How do any of Obama's 'most ardent supporters­' explain Obama's doctrine that presidents have the right to k!ll American citizens with no due process, no oversight, and his push for 'indefinite preventive detention' and no transparen­cy of anything a president asserts should be his secret?

As a Democrat, I don't know how any Democrat can get behind this.  

You defend Obama at the expense of your own best interests. As long as his numbers remain high, he does the bidding of corporatio­ns and establishm­ent elites.

Why should 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?
