I just don't know what to make of this man anymore. Is he a fraud? Just a poor leader? Limited non-orating skills? Stockholm Syndrome? I am dumbstruck watching him squander a historical mandate, and get so easily played and entrapped by a radical opposition party.

The DLC-contro
lled Democratic
Party counts on voter ignorance and gives lip service to all populist issues. Like the Republican
Party, the DLC works for the benefit of transnatio
nal corporatio
ns. Each party uses high-price
d public relations firms, with spinmeiste
rs crafting sophistica
ted propaganda campaigns to con voters into believing what isn't true.
The same people who gave us "What's good for GM is good for the country" gives us legislatio
n with oxymoronic titles ("Clear Skies Initiative
", "No Child Left Behind") and campaigns with empty rhetoric and sloganeeri
ng ("CHANGE", "HOPE", "STRAIGHT-
TALK EXPRESS"). All calculated to convince the left and the right within each party that their party's candidate shares their positions.
Democratic voters thought they were saying no to all that, corporate and lobbyist control when they chose Obama over Hillary (Hillary supporters are comprised of DLCers and those who don't know anything about the DLC and believe the Clintons are liberals).
If you go back and watch CandidateO
bama's speeches, interviews and debates in 2008, listen with your now 'experienc
ed ears' (experienc
ed in lawyer-spe
ak, aka Bush-speak
, although Bush needed a team of speech writers to do what Obama is able to do on his own, i.e., think on his feet), I think you'll see that Obama spoke carefully and precisely to give people the sense of what they wanted to hear to get their vote.
Obama got into office by misleading Democratic voters. He ran to the left of HillaryCli
nton. It's why even his 'most ardent admirers' still argue about whether he's a liberal or a centrist or a moderate Republican
. He convinced centrists that he was a centrist. He convinced liberals he was a liberal posing as a centrist. [News Flash: Even BruceBartl
ett, domestic policy advisor to RonaldReag
an and Treasury official in the George HWBush administra
tion said the other day, "i think the dirty secret is that Obama is a moderate conservati
ve. if i were a liberal democrat, i probably would be upset." And for those who won't accept that,
"Privately, Obama describes himself as a Blue Dog Democrat"]The truth is that Obama's nothing but a politician
, and I mean that in the worst sense of the word. In the 'used car salesman' sense. It turns out that doing what's right for transnatio
nal corporatio
ns is what Obama is about, and trying to sell it as good for Americans is what he does afterwards
. He's the epitome of the 1950s Republican
, "What's good for GM is good for America." He did a snow job on everybody.
