Well waiting for the cheap a$$ website to load I couldn't help but notice the methadone clinic ads and the Obama countdown clock. Does Rush own this site?

Anyways, editorializing an editorial isn't really newsworthy. This case highlights that.

Poor right wingers write editorials with the storyline that liberals are upset with Obama for "ruining the country."

No, we're upset with Obama because he is acting more like a right winge stooge.

Not fighting for civil liberties and open government. ( Reversing Bush policies the right wing supported)

Not winding down the Wars. ( That the right wants to expand)

Not fighting for the middle class. ( Like the public option that would have brought pricing pressure to the medical industry)

Not taking on Corporate interests. ( Caving into GOP and Blue Dog demands that insurance, drug, hospitals, and doctors, and the ultra rich make no sacrfice at all)

This is also why you also need to elect a President who has some real life managerial experience somwhere on his resume. Look they can go to some ivy league school and even be elected to Congress. It's just that somewhere between graduate degree and President, we should be able to see evidence that they've balanced a budget, done some planning, paid taxes and know how taxes impact people, hired people, dealt with customers, know what things cost, made deals, are capable of taking an idea through to implentation, etc.

The presidency isn't Training Camp.

Why don't you do a search under "obama" for thread titles started by padcrasher?

Unlike fake conservatives like yourself. I have principles. I don't switch arguments depending on who's in charge.

Bush sucked. And to the extent Obama is like Bush he sucks.

Got it?
