Why isn't Obama and the Democratic leadership threatening Lieberman with loss of his committee chairmanship to support REAL energy reform?

The Kerry-Lieberman bill is heavy on coal, nuclear, gas and oil, and chump change for green sustainables. Nothing for infrastructure towards green sustainable energy.

Where were you when Obama was running for president.
==========
At the time when Afghanistan was relevant with regard to 9/11, when the US military let Osama Bin Laden and Al Qaeda escape from Tora Bora over the mountains into Pakistan, Candidate Obama talked about his having supported the war in Afghanistan.
Candidate Obama's talk about Afghanistan was always framed in terms of the past. And Candidate Obama was always equivocal about what he would do as president, because "nobody can predict what conditions on the ground and in the world would be like after 1/20/09".
Obama left it up to listeners to infer whatever they wanted, believe whatever they needed to believe about him in order to get their votes.
Now we know that Obama is an agent of the Establishment Elites.

I agree. Especially since the policies that Obama & the DLC are running from are the policies that created a thriving, vibrant middle class and created wealthy educated citizens in ONE GENERATION from immigrants with just the shirts on their backs.

GENERAL PETRAEUS: It is important that July 2011 be seen for what it is - The date when a process begins, based on conditions. Not the date when the US heads for the exits.

The real story in Michael Hastings' RollingStone article was that American troops were being called upon to do a counter-intuitive task: Not respond to their training as killing machines, not react as soldiers in a war zone. They're being required to restrain their training & instincts as warriors, & be instead police officers-s
When the story became about an insubordinate general, Hastings' more important message got lost. With McChrystal gone, the troops in Afghanistan are rejoicing and that can only be because they believe Petraeus will unleash them to do what they've been trained to be: Killing machines with little or no regard for civilians.
But COIN and "restraint" was Petraeus's invention, so unless Petraeus changes the policy that Obama has instituted, it's just more of the same frustration (& casualties) for the troops.
If Petraeus does change the policy, it means a bloodbath for civilians & every civilian killed means 10 recruits for Al Qaeda.
That means 'Long War', unending, because they know We the People have the power in a democracy to choose our leaders, choose the policies which are affecting their lives. They target us because it is us who is putting these corporate t00Is into power.

We MADE the money.
That doesn't change the fact that you can't get blood from a turnip. If there's no money in the fund, how do you pay people from it?:

In the 2012 election, if Republicans are faced with a choice of Sarah Palin or Barack Obama, who do you think they're going to vote for?
Not the Teabaggers, but Republican voters in general.
While Republican politicians insist that Obama is a socialist, a liberal, what has Obama actually done that fits that bill?
The DLC controls the Democratic Party and it has been busily working to move the party to the right. It uses language as oxym0ronically as Bush did, putting through one of the greatest corporate giveaways in history and calling it "healthcare reform", but in fact it's nothing but corporate welfare.
Whatever voters Obama loses on the left, he hopes to pick up in the mainstream Republican Party.
