“Escalating a war started and bungled by whom? Prey tell!”

“NO pudding realist! Unlike you I do not depend on a bunch of hateful folks whose main goal is to block every and anything which will benefit America so try again. Maybe you need to get the meaning of the word first and see how much it relates to you and your ilk before trying to pin it on someone else!”

“After all the crazy stuff on this post, and you blame ME for dumbing down the discussion? Get over it; I'm just blowing off steam.”

“Don't bother. Their snarky comments are a form of adulation. They will not speak negatively of HRH Obama;”

“Yes, he did support the public option (show me proff otherwise). And he's right to pin a good part of this on Obama. Obama refused to throw his support behind a bill with a public option instead opting for the trigger option in order to get Olympia Snowe on board. Obama's excuse was "if we try we might fail" or some bull like that, he didn't help Harry Reid get the support of other Democratic Senators for a public option.”

“Miss the point much?
The "compromise" that was ultimately reached was due to only about 5 bluedog DINOS that held ANY progress up on the agreement for a public option. Of those 5, all received lobby influence over the years. You can vent your anger towards Rahm Emanuel, Barack Obama, K-Street influence, the US Chamber of Commerce and of course, the GOP sociopaths. Russ Feingold has been the loudest voice against this compromise and he, along with the about 40 votes (who ARE for the public option in one form or another) realize that they will likely lose the 60 vote majority in the Senate in 2010 and so they wanted some forward movement to build on rather than look like losers to a voting constituency whom they know seldom do the necessary due-diligence before either making seriously ridiculous blog comments . . . or that are just too stupid to vote in the first place.”

“by you?”

“White, are you under the impression that one Senator could change the bill and have a public option? If so, go back and read the rules of the Senate.”

“Are you possibly trying to spell "colossal" and "contagious?"

Whatever it was, you are de.ad wrong, Jethro. Game's far from over. Stay tuned, and please try to pay attention.”

“He's advancing the neocon agenda on Iran quite well.”

“And who would you like to see instead? There is no such thing as a perfect president. I don't even think he's perfect. But I'm certainly not going to spend a lot of time on blogs saying nasty things about him, mainly about stuff we really don't have all the facts on anyway. Between the righties who have never stopped hounding him since the day he took office, and when they couldn't find anything real to dislike, they cheerfully made up stuff, and those on the left who claim to like him but when he doesn't do everything they want RIGHT NOW, they're outa here, he really doesn't have much of a chance. The poll numbers do matter, unfortunately, seemingly more than the numbers of votes he got in the last election. There are ways of getting what we want done and other ways that are counter productive. Seems to me, aiding and abetting the righties in bringing down the president and his poll numbers is not how to get what we want done. The right is loving this, btw. You're doing their job. Congratulations!

BTW, if you Google Obama accomplishments, you can find a list of about 90 things he's accomplished already. Apparently, you've forgotten all the good stuff.”

“Rights? You think you have rights anymore?? That ship sailed already my friend. Welcome to Plutocrat America, where the Golden Rule is King: He who has the Gold makes the rules... and is king.”

“Howard Dean, MD, for president in 2012!!!!!!!!”

“If Obama and the dems lose the next election guess who pays the price....hint: Not Obama.

So next time you're looking at your "check" you better know that not voting dems is the same as giving the Republicans a blank check, something which happened in 2000, 2004 and can certainly happen in the future.”

“Yeah, the last time that happened we wound up with Bush. I agree, though, that at least some of the Dems will wind up in a new party of conservatives. The wackos that call themselves Republicans now will wind up totally out of it.”

“Not quite, but she did see all the Tanzania movies. Identified with Jane. Married Cheeta.”
