I'd like to ask a favor. To my Liberal friends, to my Progressive friends, to my Moderate friends, and to my Conservative friends (yes I do have some), and to those who wouldn't call me a friend - I express no opinion about the content of this video. I only ask you to listen to ALL of it and express your opinion of it. You will have plenty of opportunity to insult me or to post the latest left or right wing talking point elsewhere. For once, can we discuss an actual ISSUE?

The R's and D's are nothing but a pony show.
The people that really want to get something done (Conservatives) get demonized,lied about and smeared on, by both of them.

Sadly,i don't think America,with it's new.. "American Idol" mentality,is going to wake up anytime soon.

So just keep playing the game of blaming each other,while they sit back laughing at you..

I totally agree with him but I don't see where OWS is involved in this

Unfortunately nothing will happen, Congress and the Senate are too busy lining their pockets and the pockets of their corporate masters, to worry about us

That video isn't coordinated with the Occupy Movement; except the beginning and end which say the video is about that. I will however, agree with him that Congress, Outsourcing, and refusal to change policy are 3 of the United States' biggest problems.

As much as some would maybe like it, Obama is not a king. He has rules he MUST follow.

If we are willing to let that go my friends, we are all ready done.

I liked his passion, not his solution.

He's right, but a corollary is that the voters don't want THEIR prgorams/benefits/tax bracket changed. They insist on voting for people who serve only their constituents and not the country as a whole. If those elected dare compromise or do what they believe best for the nation as opposed to their particular region, they are voted out at the earliest opportunity. It results in stalemates, standoffs, and only isolated issues that serve the lowest common denominator being addressed.

...as long as live in a country who's highest court has equated money to free speech, we will continue to live in a fundamentally corrupt society.

Fire the whole congress and if this president won't stand up to the corruption, find one that will, it sure isn't any of the Republican candidates. Maybe it IS time for a third party candidate. This greed must stop and together we can stop it.
Thank you, thank you, ProudProgressive.
