RESPONDING TO ONE MORE.... don't pick on Obama


While I remain "excited" by the republican (oops) T-Party Operatives, who lead the charge against the middle class. I must explain.

I think you over simplify tremendously when you suggest that the left, the vocal left, the "professional" and amateur left, or even the well meaning but honorable or even the religious left, hate OBAMA. It's not about hate, or like or love or even disappointment. 

We or I if you will dislike capitulation at the first hint of opposition. Or surrender as an opening gambit. We disagree with the kind of politics that promises healthcare for all, and then before the negotiations begin a strategy that gives up first principles, and then follows out with a groveling give away to big pharma. Where an administration refuses to prosecute WALL STREET or Bankers but indicts more whistle blowers than any other administration. We disapprove of policies that put a Bradley Manning in solitary for a year before even beginning the hearings, but gives International War Criminals and torturers like BUSH, CHENEY, RUMSFELD, YOO and others a big friendly smile and wave.

Hate of a president that most of us, worked hard for, and voted for and cried in celebration of his election you are mistaken. We disagree with his and his administrations policies. When the REPUBLICAN GOVERNORS in lockstep tore up contracts with Unions... where was the Community Activist President... like his predecessor... He was AWOL! - That's not HATE, that's disappointment, maybe the moderates... will pound the pavement for him, or maybe all those lobbyists whose calls he takes... Maybe they'll walk the precincts.

Quick which of these Obama policies do you like best -

by RWSpisak


Pretending that anyone left of Lieberman is an unrealistic airhead? 


Or extending the BUSH reduction of Habeas Corpus into a Presidential Policy that he claims the authority to not just hold people indefinitely but to be able to KILL them Extra-judicially? 


Or maybe you like an opening gambit that the Health Care Proposal which included a PUBLIC OPTION was abandoned before negotiations? 


Or lets first before the budget negotiations - UNILATERALLY cut funds for elderly heating oil? Not your favorite? 


How about when his Justice department arrests and hounds more whistle-blowers than any other President? 


Or maybe you liked when they bailed out the Bankers and Wall $treeters, who not only caused but profited from the the Housing Bubble's Collapse. They make money on both sides of the deal, and get a bail out of any costs - still take home massive BONUSes
and JACK UP THE CREDIT CARD RATES to a point that looks' like Vinny G's neighborhood.


NO CRIME ON WALL STREET - They've benefitted from the LETS LOOK FORWARD BS - that got the Cheney Crew off the hook. You figure Bradley Manning could have benefitted from a LETS LOOK FORWARD JUSTICE PLAN? 


Or maybe you like the failure to support the women who invented the Credit Monitoring Agency. 


Or maybe you prefer when they threw Van Jones, and the woman under the bus, not even waiting for the facts - when Breitbart serial video mugger drops a DVD on some conserva-twerp. 


If we don't show PARTY LEADERSHIP - that their argument "WHERE ELSE YOU GOING TO GO" doesn't get out the TROOPS 
- Go Cash a Corporate Check... 


Goldman Sachs has your number!
