“Agreed.
Democrats' fall started with Obama's passion for so-called bipartisanship. From the get-go GOPers wanted Obama to fail. Yet, our president kept offering olive branches to these people who does not want anything to do with him. In the process he and/or congressional Dems diluted every major major legislative agenda to the point of near worthlessness. Look at the Stimulus Package - it has hardly any money for infrastructure spending like rebuilding roads, bridges, highways etc, that creates jobs. Imagine if the entire or most of the $787 billion was set for infrastructure spending, how many jobs would have been created. Then look at the Health Care Reform. Dems are blackmailed by an untrustworthy back-stabber Joe Lieberman. The president who basically rewarded Joe with a commitee charimanship against majority Dems wishes, now would not use his leverage on him. Better to be done with Reconciliation than worthless reform. The president and Dems just need to stand and deliver on the campaign promises. If you loose your base, you will be sinking. Literally and figuratively.”

“So, does that mean you were at the town halls in August, the D.C. rally in September, organizing in your neighborhood, and will be at the rally in D.C. on January 15th...or are you just talking shiiiit?!?”

“Plus even in the minority they are able to control the White House AND Congress. I still can't believe how weak the White House has been in letting the right-wingers take control of the debate. Incredible.”

“They were both at a World Series game, but they weren't sitting together. Keith was photographed watching the game, Hannity was photographed "being seen". 50,000 people in the stands, many celebs, but because these 2 particular New Yorkers were there, it got covered.”

“Yes, and for a reason. It is not ideological it is practical. Insurance Companies and Pharmaceutical Companies have lots of cash to throw around. If they use that money against health care we will never have it. The long term idea is to get health care as given then trim down the Big Money Guys.

Greenwald lives in an ideal fantasy world and refuses to deal with realities, like the ones with the money have more power than the ones that don't. So it is better to get some of what you want rather than none.

Time to grow up and deal with the real world.

“Well, As today I'll never vote for one again.”

“Amen. I'm getting fed up with the party.”

“Yes, Grayson is an especially noisy Democrat -- taking after Republicans in that regard.

The difference is that what he says is usually right -- and in dire need of being said.”

“Unlike the guttersnipes on the other side of the aisle, Grayson is a stickler for the truth.”

“Nice post.”

“What a cop out.
Then he can bug out tomorrow.
But instead he sent in more warriors, didn't he?”

“I agree. Pretty simple concept.

Most castigating the President are slimebag_righties and bed-wetters.....”

“So fanned!”

“lol!”

“...and lipstick”

“SpookyTwo in two-oh-one-two.”

“Perhaps next time however, maybe Obama could read the bill before signing it.”

“The Whitehouse would need more bathrooms--good place to hide.”

“The R party can have Obama at this point. Is there a leftist in the house?”

“Hmmm, has a nice ring to it.”
