In the city of Chicago "politics" is done very differently than in much of the rest of the nation. Evidently in tiring of hearing from "we the people," the current administration has a political death wish. Many of the prominent capitol hill leaders seem determined to join Obama and company as they plummet fully another sixth of the American economy into the eternal abyss. But we would not be at this point if President Obama had not broken very specific promises.
Most specifically he has broken his constant pledges from the campaign trail to be a different kind of leader. He pledged to be a leader who listened to those who elected him. He even pledged on the night he won the vote to listen to those who opposed him. Yet in this final week, he is listening to no one, and doing so at our great peril.

Progressives have to be satanic and proud of it. Who else would pride themselves so on lying and breaking campaign promise after campaign promise to people they claim to represent?
They’re Caesar Augustus with the well-tended smiles of Dorian Gray.
The only explanation for a president/party to proceed in such a reckless fashion is if they do not fear the people, i.e., they don’t fear another election. They don’t fear facing the people in an election because they don’t plan to face the people in an election.
Better to ditch this monstrosity and point to said incompetent and repeat, "This is not how America rolls. It doesn't comport with our ideals and will only take us further from the truth that guides us, putting us in greater peril."
"Shame on you senators, for thinking you can trifle with this nation's destiny- to be the beacon of freedom and liberty- while imposing tyranny upon those who toil each day to fill your coffers- with the expectation that you'll perform your duties with respect for America and the freedoms for which she stands."
"Best to hone your skills for life outside of government, as soon you'll be relegated to such. America is poised to re-bound, and your signature on this Bill will seal your fate. A tsunami is headed your way and the way of all those unfaithful to America's ideals."
"Go ahead and vote, because for the majority of you, there's nothing worth salvaging. You didn't get it, you'll never get it, and IT is about to sweep you away. As God is my witness."
Where are those quotes from?
