I suggest they put up their own guy for Primary in 2012!
“pragmatic” compromises that will destroy the crown jewels of democratic reform”
Please, please tell us what the crown jewels of reform are. I know, but if they actually told voters exactly what they wanted then they would be hung for treason
:...It was disconcerting to watch the president slip-slide so easily into voicing the fallacious economic arguments of the right...”
This comment coming from a group who’s economic record is one of massive fail?
Hey commies, go back to something you actually understand...like....er....uh.....
Neither has anyone on the right.
What nonsense.
Obama ‘betraying the core principles of the Dem party’?
Pffftttttt...
Sweet.
Good - now we all can despise him.
The left has become unhinged? They were hinged before?
Who knew?
It’s fake leftist outrage to make Obama look moderate.
Clinton did this, too.
He is doing to the dumb-o-crats what he does to ANYONE who come between HIM and HIS re-election chances, throw them under the bus.
It is always about HIM, FIRST, LAST AND ALWAYS HIM
And still his will slaves follow him while he views them as under the bus fodder whenever he deems their usefullness over.
I just hope that this doesn’t convince anyone that Obama is now a “moderate”.
Give them all kinds stuff for free so they never have to get out of bed?
They're mad because the tax slaves are rebelling and demanding their freedom.
No slave labor - no democrat party.
This is rather refreshing… Seeing the left bemoan their own defeat.
The mainstream media (who are now essentially left of center) just spent the last month being dishonest to their audiences who will probably be very weary of believing their foolish rhetoric in the future.
They preached that taxes were essential for any debt ceiling compromise. They went to bat for their hero Obama and lost. The compromise included no taxes and now these shills who preached tax, tax, tax look like fools… They’ve blamed the tea party, the Democrats, the Republicans and even their hero Obama - but they can blame and bemoan all they want.
Now they just look stupid, which is exactly what they were and still are. Their best bet would be to admit that they are wrong, and stop pretending that they were right.
Just look at the threads here on FR to see how successful the Communists were with creating a firestorm out of this bill. They know they got everything and more than they thought possible but will not admit it. They are experts at this. They had the right howling at each other, making threats, and many actually changed their party affiliation from R to I.
They are so close to total victory they can almost taste it. Don't think for a minute they're gonna ease up. No way. If anything they are going to throw on more coals and ratchet up the steam. While we take each battle as it comes and believe it's about what ever the subject du jour may be the commies are 5 plays ahead of us and every battle is about WORLD domination. They look at every possible outcome for every one of these battles and how they can use that outcome to their advantage.
Just so you understand their problem with this bill, libs/progressives want no cuts except in defense, another huge stimulus bill (esp with the economy tanking) and tax increases on ‘the rich’ tp pay for it and they want Obama to fight for these things scorched earth.
What these libs dont understand is something that Rush also incorrectly predicted last year, Obama may be liberal but he wants re-election more than anything. Being tied to Democrats limits Obamas options, he still has to play his base to keep them voting but he cant possibly give them what they want and still have a chance of getting re-elected and he knows this.
I thought there was a Kucinich rule...
“...he betrayed core principles of the Democratic Party”
uh....that’s not possible!
Democrats have no “core principles”!
They are grounded in the church of “whatever’s working for me lately”.
They move to where ever the votes for government dependence are most plentiful.
It's one way liberals work to trick the middle class... 'see our guy's NOT a leftist - he's middle of the road'. Yeah, right. The MSM pushed that with every liberal who's run for the past 30 years.
Have YOU ever seen the MSM push the idea that a conservative is really MORE liberal than people think? Never. The MSM plays for the benefit of one side, and one side only.
