Despite Obama's Lofty Words, Scientific Integrity Rules Are Lagging

Friday, July 9, 2010


Can you tell us how to create jobs for Americans?

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

Absolutely. It's no secret.



The massive stimulus that should have happened before Obama handed out TARP2 (with no conditions, yet), for public projects rebuilding America's infrastructure on all fronts. From roads, bridges, high-speed rail, an energy renaissance ala the Manhattan project (another broken promise by Obama) and a building of that new energy grid (& communications) infrastructure across the US, along with massive infusion into SMART communities (residential/business/agricultural) ending suburban sprawl, high tech and more.



Obama, Mr. Personality, came into office with more good will, more wind at his back, more political capital than ANY previous president. More people voted for Obama than any previous president.



And what did he do with that political capital?



He sat on it.



Obama has been absent on every issue. He went AWOL on healthcare reform, saying, "Oh, that's Congress's job", all the while he was undercutting the congressional committees writing legislation, cutting secret deals with phRma, the AMA and hospitals. At the end, he emerged and kamikaze-style, rahmed through a massive corporate giveaway with no cost controls, a bill guaranteed to end all public healthcare sooner rather than later.



Obama could have delivered on his promises, but Obama doesn't want to.

I remember this happening when Ted Kennedy ran for president in 1980, destroyed carter and gave us Reagan.

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



That's not why Jimmy Carter lost.

Obama isn't an improvement over Bush, much less Carter. The only reason you think so is your own mind's ability to talk yourself into bullsh!t.

Big Health and Wall Street have spent millions to combat even the relatively mild reforms he's managed to get to the floor in congress

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



No, they spent millions to get the legislation that they wanted. They wrote the bills (healthcare & banking reform). And, their stocks went up the day after legislation passed.

republicans have voted no on virtually everything he's proposed

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



Is that really how you gauge whether Obama or Democrats are working in your (presumably leftist) interests? By how Republicans react?



Republicans announced their strategy on day one of Obama's administration that they would vote as a bloc, against everything Obama and Democrats wanted. Why then would Obama and Democrats water down all of their legislation, and then push through a great big corporate giveaway healthcare bill with no public option through reconciliation?

I am an old OLD liberal Democrat, id-jit.



I would no more believe what's on any administration's website about their 'accomplishments' than I would read your cv to learn about your accomplishments.



Obama is a DINO. What you are is either a paid shill for the DLC (do you even know what & who the DLC is?), or terminally naive and starstruck.
