He says one thing, then does the complete opposite. He says the rich must pay more taxes, then gives them a break on income AND estate taxes. He speaks against unnecessary wars, then pumps more soldiers into Afganistan, and more money into the military-industrial complex. He speaks about bringing jobs back to America, then presides over more and more of the same. He says he will close Guantanamo, then keeps it open, along with the secret prisons. He agrees with keeping all of the Patriot Act incursions into our privacy. The rich plantation owners are secretly thrilled with their obedient houseboy.

He's a pushover to the right and a closet republican. Every negotiation he's done has basically been:

O: I want tax breaks only to extend for those making under 250k a year.

Republicans: No

O: Alright, well,.. how about for those making under million a year?

Republicans: No

O: Come on guys, can't I have anything?

Republicans: We want tax breaks for the rich, extend the estate tax breaks up to 5million, more pork for our cronies to the tune of 900 billion dollars and in return we'll give you,......unemployment for only 13 months, nothing for the 99ers.

O: Woo hoo! Look at this great offer i got guys!

I don't think it was his intent to be a Trojan Horse, but it would certainly appear that it is what he has become. Unless the Democratic Party can find a suitable and viable candidate to run in 2012 and ensure Obama is out of the way, there is going to be a problem.

In the same token, however, if the Republicans get giddy with power and too over-confident and do something crazy like nominate Palin, then all bets are off.

freefall !!! ... Well Said !

Indeed ... It truly appears that more & more concerned American Citizens are without a doubt paying much, much closer attention to the current occupant of the"Yankee WH" !

So many Americans are arriving at the same incredibly horrendous conclusion : Ho Balmy just ain't cut out fer this here kinda work !

How utterly sad and idiotic it is to realize that America can do no better that this pitifully unqualified young man as the occupant of it's highest political office !!!

And the friggin WH "Nightmare" continues ..............

Thanks A Bunch / Old Sgt. Lamar

He scammed his base and is trying to move away from being liberal.

Then again, he is trying to scam those who are in the middle and right of him but we wont allow him to sucker us like he did his own base.

We have one eye on the target and one eye on him as he simply cannot be trusted for his word.

He is a scam artist and and is a virus to liberalism in America.

Obama will go down in history as the one guy who destroyed America and his own party all in one shot.

He believes he is smarter then everyone and believes if he moves some here and there that people will BELIEVE he is moving when he is not.

One more time, this tax issue is NOT ONLY for rich people. Please stop the lying about what it is all about.

Several of us have posted and proved this lie to be false.

People clear down to 25k per year would have their paychecks shortened if the dems were allowed to have their way.

Thanks to the GOP for saving a ton of people from a democratic tax INCREASE.

Do not kid yourself, Obama is not genuine in anything he does or says.

He wasn't all that you expected, now was he?

Thank GOD we have 2 house of congress and a 9 member supreme court to keep the dictator in check.

Did he let you down?

Your going to really be let down in the years ahead, if this didn't meet your expectations after you were warned when Hilary was running against him in the primaries. All you saw was his lops moving and you were hooked. You never looked at the guys past.
SUCKER!

His signature healthcare bill being tossed by the SC, right as primaries build, will shoot Obama between the eyes.

What do you expect... he's a 'collaborative' sort of guy.
Obama to CEOs: 'I'm a Collaborative Guy, Help Me Do It.'
