The writing's on the wall. In fact, the writing was on the wall before Obama even won the election. He's not a progressive. He's not a liberal. He's a politician who serves the corporate powers that placed him in office. He doesn't serve the people.
He's not negotiating with Republicans. He's going through the necessary theatre to convince the populace that he's ceding away their safety nets, environmental protections, labor rights, and government protections as a matter of necessity. It's pure bullchit.
The democrats controlled three branches of government and they acted as operatives for the private health insurance companies, oil companies, the military industrial complex, and big banks. I'm fully convinced Obama wanted a loss of control of Congress for his own reelection chances. Mighty difficult to pretend you have to cede every important principle and election promise when your own party maintains full control of the government. The democrats failed utterly to represent the American people, they lost the mid-terms, and this was scripted as a sign that the people actually wanted MORE corporate/military/wealth friendly policies. Not only did Obama gain the cover of needing to capitulate to the supposedly ‘rightwing agenda’ (actually his own agenda imposed upon him by his corporate donor benefactors) with one of the branches now in the ‘opposition’s control. He was able to spin the loss as a need to further betray not only his base, but the entire American populace.
