Perhaps your face needed wiping.

I said it so therefore it's obviously true.

And that the machine operates on city-level politics, whereas Obama has been primarily in State and National politics.

You're engaging in a really cheap political attack by making the assumption that because he's from Chicago, he must be corrupt. It's a lazy debate tactic, and one that slurs a city of 9 million rather than offering any proof. Do you have proof of corruption on Obama's part? I'm not talking about things you don't like, I'm talking about actual solid proof of corruption.

I get a feeling that the "NO" votes are mostly trying to compete with the yes votes, and aren't really seeing the true corruption in this administration...this poll is real for the yes votes, and a competition for the "no" votes

You wonder why people are talking violence and making threats? Uh let's see put two & two together....


Only the extreme crazy right is talking violence and making threats- it has nothing to do with this administration being corrupt- it has to do with the fact that these crazy right extremists would probably add two and two and get 22-

Just off the top of my head, the Nixon administration was far more corrupt than this administration-

If you think the Obama Administration is corrupt, you're completely naive. Maybe you don't even know the definition of "corrupt".

What a joke.

That's your opinion. I disagree because I know there are nuts of equal stature on both sides. Anyone that thinks otherwise is obviously living in a make believe world of their own design.

I love how you right wingers will just set arbitrary realities to make the world fall into your way of thinking- classic right wing mentality here-

If you only knew the real "power" of this health-care bill....Why would Obama say that there was such a rush to pass this bill because of all of the dying old ladies and kids with cancer that he said had a God given right to health-care.....why can't those people get the full benefits that are dire for them to receive until 2013?...why not give those benefits now if he really gave a damn about those sick people dying

I have no doubt in my mind that THIS current OShamma Adminstration is THE WORST administration that has EVER dirtied up the lush green grass inside the Pentagram designed streets of Washington. And unfortunately the masses are too uniformed to care. their trance-like state is too deep so getting them to vote or rally for real change is impossible....
...as seen with the demonization of the tea-partiers.

I love how you right wingers always assume you know nore about an issue than someone who disagrees with you-

You are just ranting here by the way, you quoted my post but your response has nothing to do with what I had posted-
