“very good”

“the solution to that problem is very simple and is in use in most western democracies. If a political representative has taken money from a particular interest they cannot vote on any issue that effects that interest. End of story. What you guys have down there is nothing more than legalised corruption and the weight of it is crushing the country.”

“test”

“it's a thicket with very familar thorns, and puts Obama in Nixon territory,

“always "follow the money", the most obvious answer is usually correct.

“well he's already proved he was the most overrated so I guess he's got time to try for the other title although he shows little interest in gaining it.”

“seeing as Ob*a*ma took a record $20 mil from Big Health in 08 I think your headline should read "Insurers Royally "Paid" Ob*a*ma.

“ahh I see, it's like banking passes for future crimes, if the other side does one you get to do one. Ya,,that would turn out well. Keep in mind the only reason that BushCo is not being investigated for numerous crimes is because Ob*a*ma is sheilding them from justice which is also against US and International laws,”

“thus showing the benefits of setting the bar really low”

“Kind of describes him in general.

"half-heartedly with no apparent direction forward."”

“I'd luv to see a link for those "powers" you say he removed. Here's one that lists many of those he's kept and this arcticle is from back in June.

“It's not that his love of Bu*sh philosophy is without a healthy track record. These articles are from months back. O has embraced BushCo thinking farrrr more than rejecting any of it.

"The Repu*blicans have been so busy trying to paint Presi*dent Ob*a*ma as a soc*ialist, as a ra*dical, as a Ma*rxist, as a Mu*s*lim, as the D*ev*il, that they haven't even noticed that he has become one of them"

“sure you can say that. We were all 13 once.”

“doing your part to alleviate the great corruption shortage I assume.”

“"issued" and "served" are 2 different things, judges do the first and bailiffs and sheriffs do the later.”

“Rahm is just doing his bosses bidding. If not O is a weak and ineffective leader and at the mercy of his staff.”

“O will not fi*ght for anything unless forced by outside powers. (or for his corporate donors, he had no trouble figh*ting to get the bank*sters their bonu*ses)This is just like the election, he continued to let the repubs say anything and everything and insisted on keeping to the Kerry "high road" tactic of not responding to attacks and letting the repubs repeat the attacks until the public thinks it must be true because Kerry/Obama won't defend themselves. You can't blame the public thinking you are a wu*ss for not standing up for yourself or your ideals if you give the impression that you don't think they worth defending. Obama kept that up in the election to the point that he fell below McLoon, it was only when there was a revolt in the ranks and big funders threatened to stop raising cash that Obama decided to "fi*ght" and even then it was tepid but at least he regained his step. This time you have his natural instinct to to let the repubs run roughshod over him and being beholden to his Big Health donors. Obama was the very top recipient and by a wide margin of Big Health's donations $20mil in 08, Not a good combination for any hope of real refom.”

“hiding the reality of the real cost of this unwinnable wa*r only helps to keep it going and causes more casu*alities.”

“enough of the "chess" analogies if anything O's game is 3 card Monty. And the public are the du*pes. O took $20 mil from Big Health in 08 and the benifits will go to them. Thats why he is determined to do away with any public options or real reforms.”

“and never has so much been sold out in so little time.”

“O sold his "credibilty" for $20mil to Big Health. He took that amount from them in 08. The top recipient by a very wide margin.

“He took $20mil from Big Health in 08 and is "playing" it the same way any politician does for a top donor.”
