Rodney 2012/05/01 20:17:14Yes, he's a smart politician+8He has shown NO leadership in demanding that Harry Reid get a budget passed. He has shown NO leadership in bringing the nation together as one, instead dividing us all by sex, race, income bracket and ideology. He has a LONG history of never accepting responsibility OR leadership. He has to blame Congress, the people, the media, big business, Mother Goose and those damned Unicorns (probably the Skittles raindrops too).






















They are holding America hostage but Obama won't call them out.
Your President has been spitting on you guys ever since he won elected office. As a state Senator,...
Your President has been spitting on you guys ever since he won elected office. As a state Senator, he often voted Present on issues important to the left and as a US Senator, he never once voted against Bush but voted for everything Bush wanted including voting to pass Bush legislation through cloture. When he didn't have enough Republican support in his second term, it was Obama who got Bush enough Democrat votes to pass his legislation and he voted so often against the left that his voting record makes him a rightwing extremist.
President Obama has one weakness... people like YOU.
You split his party against him, you spoke such hatred against the Republicans that Republican leaders had no choice but to oppose him because their enraged voting base would have voted them out of office and for all the claims of racism against this President... you guys admitted that had you elected a white democrat they wouldn't have been treated any different than Obama. The only "racists" are people like yourself who can't see a black man as anything but a victim so no matter how many times he screws up or stabs you in the back, he's never to blame... it's always the fault of racists even when the only one involved is Obama himself.
Who made those secret deals with Big Pharma and Big Oil without telling anyone? Who was the first President not to get involved to keep the water flowing in the San Joaquin Valley costing that state billions of dollars and one of our worst ecological disasters? Who personally led the fight to preserve the three worst provisions of the Patriot Act he swore to remove over his entire political career when even the Republicans were willing to let them expire? Who tossed the public option not once but three times from his healthcare plan? Who was so filled with hate that they wasted all their time attacking the Republicans in 2010 instead of promoting their own candidates to give people reason to vote for them... something that for all the hate you guys heaped on the Tea Party, they at least promoted the hell out of their candidates?
Obama's only real weakness is that the Progressives and Liberals are filled with so much self destructive hate that they, not the Republicans, did everything possible to destroy this President!
Even now as Obama is heading for re election, a story comes out that blue collar rightwing Democrats are not happy that Obama takes so many vacations when the economy keeps them from having any vacations at all... and you guys come out attacking them with more hatred than you heap on Republicans!
How damn stupid are you people? You join a political party that is almost 50 / 50 rightwing and leftwing and you lack the common sense and braincells to understand that if you want to hold power in Washington DC... YOU HAVE TO WORK WITH YOUR FELLOW RIGHTWING DEMOCRATS AND NOT ATTACK THEM LIKE THEY ARE THE GREATEST EVIL ON THE FACE OF THE PLANET!
Obama needs those rightwing Democrats to be re elected and you can't do anything but attack them and blame them for everythin no different than you do Republicans.
If you cannot find a way to work with your rightwing Democrat counterparts, then maybe it's time you guys do what Liberals and Progressives have done around the world... form your own damn party because every damn time you guys come to power in Washington DC... the political left does everything in it's power to destroy the Democratic Party. The rightwingers in your party are not leftwingers so you need to work with them. You do that through Centrists and Moderates so you need to lay off of them as well. And if you guys can work with your rightwing Democrat counterparts... then you can work with the Republican opposition.
The Reason Republicans stay in power for so long when they get it is they are united where you guys are divided against one another as much as you are against the Republicans... but when you attack the rightwing Democrats, they help the Republicans.
And if you want to get Obama beaten... just keep your party divided against itself and stop everything he's been trying to do to reunite you political party.
The hatemonger Keith Olbermann got fired from MSNBC because of his hate... and then he got fired by Al Gore on Current TV for the same damn reason. Learn from the bad example he set because he had a huge Liberal following until he began to go to far and even the more center leaning Liberals stopped watching his show. You let people like that set the tone and you still cannot stop yourselves from the hate and ignorance this man and others like him set in motion with the Left after Obama was elected.
Republicans don't really have to do a damn thing to beat Obama... people like yourself will do it for them just like you did in the 2010 elections!
Translation of your long post: You can't stand the thought that a black man is in the White House.
Even before he was sworn into office, Republicans were plotting to undermine this president.
The bits of his policy that have made it through have been wildly successful. But he can't actually write the laws.
And with Boner and the boys blocking anything that goes thru the house, the past 2 years have been largely wasted.
in other words, it's the congress stupid.
now , it is congress to blame,,
when do the liberals , stand up and be responsible ?
when do liberals stop blame others for their incompetence ?
when ????
Bush's economic collapse speaks for itself.
So does Obama's record of avoiding imminent depressions.
So does the record of the admin and congress before the repug's took control of the house.
So does the record after the repugs took control.
Just sayin... If you can refute any of that, and say anything besides "stop blaming us for our mistakes" please do.
We will continue to blame others for their incompetence as a firm basis in reality is a core tenet of liberalism.
When will republicans own up to sabotaging this administration for political gain? An agenda tantamount to treason.
Or when will they acknowledge Bush's administration was devastating to the WORLD, and isn't the type of thing that can be turned around in a week?
When?
just who are these us ?
did I use " us " as in do not blame us ?
or is this your thinking ?
us , in my mind is ... all of us,, as in all Americans, as in .. you and I ..
so, allow me to put my words out there , and not have to depend upon you to speak for me... the present house, the present senate , the present POTUS , ( there is great power in the here and now, I have no power to change the past , ) are the ones that are making or , IMO , breaking the country...
those that want to continue to drive down the highway of life , looking only in the rearview mirror , are destined to crash and burn... IMO..
so, the hate , the blame , is old business for me, you, well , you do what you do...
When you lack a point, mindless ramblings will work in a pinch.
he is quick to stand up and blame some one else
he is quick to stand up and take credit for the actions of others
he stays stuck in his high chair when it comes time to be accountable..
the POTUS is a position that needs a leader, obomma has proven the past 3 years
he just in not that person...
too bad , too sad,, move over and watch a real leader turn this obomma wreck around.
Mitt in 2012....
and yet , you are obsessed with commenting ...
how ironic ...
how amusing you are to me....
Americans want jobs, want corporations to hire us,,, and against all the obomma tricks and obsticles , taxes , regulations, corporations are going against obomma and make a go of it. with the help of congress....
and against all the stop gaps of obomma , congress will make it happen...
against obomma , congress has the fracking drilling going strong..
I do agree with " regulations are not THE problem " I think they are part of the problem.
I do not agree with the tariff of out side goods,
I do believe in free enterprise , free trade , in capitilism ..
I believe America has the highest tax rate on corporations in the world, and our growth has been falling behind at a fast rate , think the two are related to each other ?
10 years of tax cuts, well, I think the tax cuts , subsidies , tariffs, have been with us for longer than 10 years.. much longer .. and I agree with you they do not work,
if a business plan has to depend upon tax cuts, subsidies, tariffs to succeed , then may be it is a poor business plan..
in Pittsburgh Pa , the politicians are always ( well not every minute of every day ) trying to lure some one into the area with tax cuts , and it does not work out .. they may bring in , by giving a $$ inducement to the new company, but then that company has a competitive advantage over the existing company and they then can not make any $$ ( and that is the objective , to turn a profit ) and they go out of business,, then Pittsburgh we are stuck paying for the new company 's taxes and the old company that was paying taxes leaved the area.
I am against tax breaks , subsidies, tarriffs , for corporate and private citizen.
tax us all across the board , the state tax is 3 % for private citizens, regardless if you make 10,000 or 100,000 $$ , flat rate, sure is easy to fill out the form. :)
