“Cap,

That would only happen in your mind. Liberals did not have to hijack religion to pray & love God - the rightwingers are the ones who hijack religion.”

“libs,

Yes, you are correct - I fear people like Palin being ANY WHERE NEAR those who write our laws.

Palin is Anti-American, Anti-Woman and would love to have us go backward until we live like 12th Century NOMADS.”

“Anti-American just like all those blame America 1st for everything wrong in the world libs? Anti-woman because she doesn't believe in abortion? Or is she anti-woman because she has done things that most woman could only dream of? I find it funny how a feminist defines who is anti-woman or not! Is being a successful, independent woman not good enough for you feminist or do they have to follow the anti-man, anti-look like a woman, anti-life stance in order to be in your limited club of feminist? The President doesn't write laws, congress does. The President can only sign off on a bill congress wrote or veto it. I guess you like for those that don't come from a pro-western agenda to write our laws for us anti-westerns?! Given that we have been so harmed over the last 200 years by having pro-western leaders write our laws? I guess this is the CHANGE all the Dems were looking for! Have anti-westerners write our laws now?”

“Stumpy,

Did Glennda tell you that? Did Glennda tell you flat money is not good?

What is your problem with flat money? It is just paper money & its easier to carry around than gold bars ....

The "Central Bank" you refer to - In the USA our "central bank" is the Federal Reserve - What do you think would happen to our economy if we did away with the Federal Reserve?

And the USA does NOT print money nilly willy style - which is why "W" borrowed TRILLIONS from China.”

“The federal reseve is a private bank with government powers, sort of like the CHinese version of communism You reds love fascism though and run your corporations like Russa runs it's country, If you had a brain you would figur out that Fox doesn't report the news they simply invent propaganda. Reds like you like government controlled media, so corporate controlled is the next best thing.”

I agree 100% ... I don't know where he stands on any issue but I will be watching - if he appeals to me I will donate to his campaign.

Here's the link to his website - not much there yet.

“exactly. seems like a great guy, but his website has zero info on where he stands on anything. the videos don't say anything either, except a gripe about bailout money, which is on the teabaggy side of current dialog. he does mention poverty, and especially how that effects women, so that's a start, but i'm not sure what begala is responding to, except that he's running as a democrat..­.”

“AnnfromCA

No - it does not mean that at all ... Palin's Teabaggers BOOTED the Republican - the Teabagger lost to a Democrat by a LANDSLIDE in a district that had not voted for a Democrat in over 100 years.... hmmm ....

Winning a US House Congressional seat is a WAY BIGGER deal .... Especially winning a US House Congressional seat that has not gone dem since the civil war
- thus increasing their (dems) Congressional margin,

Most importantly - Governors do NOT vote for legislation the WH supports ... but that Democrat that won in NY23 CAN and that Democrat that won in California CAN.

Therefore, the voters who are cast their votes for "National Agenda" (NY23 & California) cast their votes for Obama's Agenda.

Get it ... Obama's agenda - was voted on in the Congressional races NOT the governor's races.”

“Tritty,

Obama has only been in office 9 months ... my goodness ... did you think he could snap his fingers and cure the 65 year old health care debate ... or snap his fingers and fix the 8 year pit "W" & ChainE's economic meltdown put us in ... or snap his fingers and change laws that only Congress is allowed to change?

I agree with Roy ... Obama needs to get in touch with the backbone that candidate Obama had.”

Trittydi replied on Nov 05, 2009 at 03:51:12

“There's a lot of things he could have done differently - starting with playing a little less footsie with the Wall Street and the Bankers. Middle American needed targeted relief. Just last month he got up and chastised the banks for being greedy and not lending.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME???

Did they do a five minute time out in the corner? Who set it up so they had no accountability? Do you think Geithner and Summers did that without Obama giving them the nod?

Did I say he needed to fix all the problems in 9 months? No. I said he ignored the needs of those that are truly suffering. And that's EXACTLY what he did.

Are you hanging onto your house by your fingernails? We are.

I almost died this spring because we could not afford to use health care we already had. The new health care bill does NOTHING to address this - millions of Americans are in the same boat.

When he does something for middle America I'll be a fan - not before.

“Ya know, that is exactly how it should be. I cannot stand it when a politician (either side) says something in an interview - and the single-minded media pick up one 'sound bite' from that interview & leaves out everything else ... I want to know EVERYTHING the politician (regardless of party) has to say - in its entirety - especially in an interview.

Kudos for President Obama knowing how to NOT let HIS WORDS get mis-used any more than they were.”

2. Obama HAS ACCOMPLISHED A GREAT DEAL by trying to "placate" the right. He has SHOWN & PROVEN to America that a) the GOP are OBSTRUCTING the "people's" work from being done and b) that he (Obama) is NOT the "lone decider" like "W" did.”

I disagree with you for many reasons. The most important reason is that it is GOOD, WISE & IMPORTANT to have opposing views in the White House.
