“Typical day late and a dollar short. They wouldn't do this before they screwed up health care and turned it into corporate welfare.”

“This is such BS!.. Maybe if they renegotiated and enforced trade deals there would be jobs in this country that didn't require training in how to say, "do you want fries with that/". Clinton and the Democrats sold this country out. It is time to make all of Washington unemployed and to bring our jobs back home.”

“Who do they think they're kidding. When the Democrats actually stand up and deliver anything to the taxpayers who elected and pay them, then I might listen. Until then, its all the hot air from the WH and the Democrats that is causing global warming. Quick. Where's my boots.”

“Rahm and Obama got to go. These two are starting to make the bankers smell good.”

“But we can't afford health care. Time for a third party.

“Oil controls climate, banks control treasury, and insurance controls health care. What's new? Obama sold us out. It is time to vote him and all of the Democrats out. Third Party!!!!

Stabenow voted for the bankruptcy bill. She's no Democrat.”

“major and reform is a lie...it's another wall street sell out. If people haven't read Taibbi's latest in Rolling Stone, they should. http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/story/31234647/obamas_big_sellout/2?action=rate#rate

Obama sold out the populists and brought in Wall Street. If anybody believes this Congress is going to pass squat that regulates the banks, they're nuts.”

“What does she care? Feinstein and the Democrats will fund it anyway, just like they did Iraq. This Democratic Party is a disaster. They are worse than the Republicans. It is time to throw the bums out and vote third party.”

“Well I wouldn't be so smug if I was Gibbs. Obama's numbers are falling, and as he continues Bush's third term, Obama could even beat them.”

“The article said that the GOP was trying to stop cuts to Medicare but the Democrats wouldn't let them. The Democrats insisted that Medicare be cut and won. If these are Democrats, who needs Republicans?

Republicans and Democrats are different sides of the same owned coin. It is time to throw the bums out and vote third party.”

“Nice ....”

“Obama and the Democrats bailed out the banks with our money and left the people hung out to dry. He did nothing during this economic disaster to bailout Main Street. He didn't stop foreclosures, cap credit card interest rates and late fees, or repeal the "convenient" bankruptcy reform bill that now bleeds Americans who have lost everything for five full years instead of three. What lucky timing for the banks. For not one penny more, they could have paid off our debts with the same money on its way to the banks.

Obama and the Democrats have clearly shown that they are simply the fiscal agents for the corporations. Clinton, Bush and now Obama are giving them our jobs, health care, homes, savings, and driving our grandchildren into poverty. Well Hopey McChange was the straw that broke this Democrats back. I done with crazies, crooks and corporate whores. I'm voting for Nader, and the Republicans and Democrats can fund and vote for themselves.”

“uckfay the ishopbay....”

“No need to worry. Obama and his Democrats will kill it sooner or later. They much prefer selling us up the river than their pals on Wall Street.”

“Oh please. Republicans are even worse. They are crooked and crazy. You small government types are always begging for a free lunch.”

“Bout the only thing Rahm has done worth a damn. What is it about "illegal" that hispanics don't get? All immigrants are welcome as long as they do it "legally". This country is broke and broken. It has all the problems it can currently handle without assuming responsibility for people who don't even belong here.”

“Wall Street owns Clinton and Obama. We haven't had Democrats in office for 30 years, and we still don't.”

“How much money have W. and Obama spent on their wars? Nahh, can't afford Medicare for all. Obama doesn't pee in the pool, and its great leadership. What a joke Obama and the Democrats have turned out to be. Being completely useless and ineffectual with control of the WH, Congress and Senate has truly exposed them to be representatives of corporate welfare and the ruling class and as big a waste of taxoater money and time as the Republicans. After voting for Dems for 30+ years, I'm done. If Nader doesn't run, I'll write him in.”

“Oh please, where have I heard that one before. The Democrats are a joke. They promised to pass health care reform, and they gave us another corporate welfare scheme. The only thing I want from this bunch of liars and crooks is to not do us any more favors. By the time they get done, abortion will be illegal; and I will have to make them beneficiary in my will. FDR and Johnson must be ROTFLTAO! I'm voting for third party. I've had enough of both parties.”

“Historic? Spare me the spin and propaganda. Thank god we didn't have this bunch of weaklings doing Social Security and Medicare. If this is the best Democrats could do with control of the WH, Congress and 60 votes in the Senate, it is time for much, much better Democrats. Fundamental change and cost dictated Medicare for all. Instead we got expanded Medicaid and another corporate boondoggle as bad as Medicare Part D paid for with taxpayer money. Apparently, bailing out the banks, war profiteering, and tax breaks for the rich just aren't enough.”

“Maybe if we all moved out of the country, we'd think the US was better, too. At least then we'd all have health care, and our government would be breaking up the big banks that failed.”

“They're shipping those jobs overseas faster than they are being made. This isn't Bush's boondoggle, it belongs to Obama and the Democrats. We can afford two wars, but not single payer and universal health care. Obama conflates the few lousy billion he gave autos to save US jobs with the trillions Bernanke and Geither gave "free" to Goldman Sachs in secret and under the table to fund million dollar CEO bonuses.

This is not Republicans vs. Democrats. They are different sides of the same coin, both corporate owned, and both about stealing the middle class blind.”

“Goldman Sachs gets trillions, and the unemployed get $300/wk in TAXABLE income to replace jobs paying 4X that amount. Nobody will tell me that the bankruptcy bill that extended Chapter 11 repayment from 3 to 5 years wasn't planned. These crooks knew it was coming and couldn't resist kicking the middle class after they took them down. Obama won't rest? Ha! Where the hell is the trade reform he promised? Where's the tax increase on the top 1%? Where's the damned universal health care we were promised? Where is the fundamental change and not having the people who broke it brought it to fix it? Obama is a Golden Sachs hired hit man. He and Bernanke have given them the key to our house, savings, and jobs. This is no recession. It is the biggest heist in history, and Obama's wars are the second biggest redistribution of wealth up in history. We need to throw both parties out.”

“It isn't just gay people that are fed up with Obama, it is the entire middle class. He promised change, and we got Bush' third term. Health care reform? My foot. We got expanded Medicaid at taxpayer expense instead of single payer and universal health care. Goldman Sachs got trillions and the US Treasury. We got unemployed, foreclosed and bankrupt. The jobs are NOT coming back. The Republicans and Democrats gave them all away to china and India. They don't even have the guts to raise taxes on the rich, instead they raises Medicare payments to seniors. Two corporate owned parties: one nuts and the other a wholly owned subsidiary of Goldman Sachs. Obama is responsible for the anger at Obama. Typically of the ruling elite - blame the victim.”
