Democrats always try to get too radical too soon, and it scares the HELL out of Americans. When Presidents start talking about Fundamental Transformation, and "you didn't build that", it sends a message that oppression, and tyranny are soon to follow.

Quite telling that Obama gave every executive on Wall Street, a free pass on the financial collapse of 2009. They walked away with 10s of millions. Taxpayers left holding the bag.

so this week we're giving Obama credit for TARP? Usually you and your ilk like to point out it was a Sept 2008 program...good to know...

Nice to see that he's is still living rent-free inside some peoples' heads.

I voted for Obama dear.



But blind party dogma doesn't stop me from admitting he turned out to be something completely different. You might take lesson from this. At least, it sounds like some Democrats are starting to do that very thing.

Rather than a member of the senate they should pick someone with a proven track record as mayor.

Eric Garcetti or Cory Booker.

So, you don't believe a life-long grifter would work as well for the (D)s as it did for the (R)s?

As a STEM employed individual one would assume you would get more facts/evidence before a post like this....
The things Obama ran on were not radical. Ending the war in Iraq. Not getting us into new stupid wars. Prosecuting bankers that broke our laws. Barring lobbyists from the White House. Addressing our immigration issue.

None of those things are radical. The problem is that he did none of them. In most cases he did the exact opposite of what he promised.

This is not something that only the (D)'s are facing either. Trump isn't exactly Mr Promise keeper. No, this topic is not about Trump, it's simply me noting about those in glass houses throwing stones............

I bet my house it’s a Zero Hedge link or the other blue and yellow news link that’s always used by the OP.
