I still support president Obama's policies even if they are too far to the right. I wanted a Government supported health care or insurance option. Instead I got a give away to the private sector insurance industry. I wanted us out of Iraq and Afghanistan within six months and we are still there. I wanted to see the restoration of the 1950's income tax structure and we still have a regressive system.
Even with these problems I still support President Obama because he is far, far better then the bumbling McCain or the fool Palin.
Greg, living in New Hampshire it must irk you to no end that you don't get to pay state income and sales taxes.
didn't he say that we were going to get health care? I know that was a big part of what he was going to do. Yes he did.
He sure did say it!
We are getting to pay for it too! Whether we want it or not!
After we "get" it and "pay" for it, that doesn't assure that we will be treated for the problem that we need it for.
We could have paid for healthcare before, he is just FORCING us to now.
He said it alright, good ole obama, the great deceiver.
When will the citizenry that voted for change and put Obama in the White House stand up to the right wingers and their ilk to push forward the change they voted for?
People want to "let joe do it". However, in this case there is no joe there is just you and me and millions of others that voted for change away from the right wing agenda and all it's wrongs. It's time "we" stood up to the tea parties and the rest of the crazy heel dragging Republicans to say enough! do the job "we" want or be gone!
"From Sarah Palin to John Boehner to the operatives pulling Tea Party strings, conservatives seek to block every reform on the progressive agenda. We must fight back. "
"Cynicism ignores both the needs of the country and the moment we are in. Obama was elected with a mandate for change by a citizenry in desperate need of it. The dismay is grounded in a stark reality—that the Obama initiatives, however historic in comparison to the last decades of conservative misrule, are insufficient to meet the challenges they must address. "
The rabid attackers are the ones biting off fingers, beating old people and almost killing a young conservative couple just to name a couple of the mad dogs who attacked peaceful protesters .
Mostly done by militant monorities and white communist of course .
especially anyone that quotes alternet stories. How hard is it to understand that is just pure garbage? Anyone posting anything from it has absolutely no clue on anything and it shows.
