Was this gasbag silent over the past 8 years when Democracy was REALLY in peril?
Thats the best way to expose a fraud. And so many gasbags like this moron were SILENT while the neocons trashed the Constitution and imperiled the existence of our fragile democracy.
I liked hearing him sputter "Start no War unless you intend to win it", yet not a word about starting an illegal and unprovoked war of aggression on a defenseless Iraq.
LOL.....you mean when Obama was voting to renew the PATRIOT Act?
Or when Obama was voting to bailout businesses?
Could you explain how anything has changed to make things better?
So many here who CANNOT get beyond the Either/Or mentality...
To add...I believe the point about the war WAS pointed towards Iraq/Afghanistan....knee jerk reactions often result in foolish statements like yours.

The Republicans are in desperate denial. Rather than stepping up to the plate and owning the last 8 years, they attempt to shovel it onto the plate of the Democrats. Every time they open their mouths, they prove themselves to be lacking in integrity and dignity. Ever since Reagan took office, the Republican ranks have slowly filled with extreme right-wing religious freaks, apocalyptic nutcases, and other various miscreants and misfits--not to mention the vanguard of their leaders, corrupted by greed and the lust for power. That's why a sociopath like Sarah Palin could "rally the base," because--as she and other Republican leaders well knew--that base is just primed to hate. Problem is, it didn't work. And they are stunned. Positively stunned. They still can't get over that they lost. And as the world falls apart--largely as a result of their greed, blindness, and willful obeisance to a corrupt and frankly stupid leader--they are paddling like crazy to disown any part of it. And their "base" is turning out to be their Frankenstein's monster. They created it, and now they can't control it. No wonder all the true conservatives decamped from this nightmare of a party. They must be stunned, as well--for very different reasons.

Of course it was directed towards the illegal war in Iraq, and perhaps Afghanistan. After he got done hiding behind the sacrifices of the military he stated "Start no War unless you intend to win it" when he didnt say a word about starting illegal wars based on carefully calculated campaigns of disinformation and fearmongering. You didnt recognize it then, you dont recognize it now.

I hear Republicans today and I'm reminded of reading about people selling various tonics and potions in the 19th century. The name given these various products was "snake oil", and those pitching them were "snake oil salesmen"
Thats what today's GOP is full of, snake oil salesmen.
Yes, they have created a monster indeed, and it is consuming itself.

I actually thought that the video was right on the money. But I voted Libertarian so what do I know.

The only one selling anything is Obama and it is not snake oil, it is kool aid. Drink up Odanny, you seem to be on a continious IV drip.
