Kos Throws Obama Under the Bus
LGF ^ | July 1, 2008

Posted on 07/01/2008 6:05:42 PM PDT by Fox_Mulder77

Markos “Screw Them” Moulitsas will be withholding his money from Barack Obama until Obama toes the progressive line: Daily Kos: Rewarding good behavior.

Maybe what looks like cowering to me is really part of that “moving to the center” stuff everyone keeps talking about. But there is a line between “moving to the center” and stabbing your allies in the back out of fear of being criticized. And, of late, he’s been doing a lot of unecessary stabbing, betraying his claims of being a new kind of politician. Not that I ever bought it, but Obama is now clearly not looking much different than every other Democratic politician who has ever turned his or her back on the base in order to prove centrist bona fides. That’s not an indictment, just an observation.

Now I know there’s a contingent around here that things Obama can do no wrong, and he must never be criticized, and if you do, well f*ck you! I respect the sentiment, but will respectfully disagree.

Because nothing says “respect” like a hearty “f*ck you!”

Re Post #31 - Obamie and the bus.

Getting crowded under there, isn’t it Barry? Time for another bus to throw your friends under.

Say, isn’t that polluting the environment? We can call them “Obama-trash”.

Sheesh, how radical is Daily Kos?

Pretty damned radical.

They don't like Hugo Chavez because he is too pro-American. They think Communism failed because we didn't give it enough of a chance.

Kos is a fool.

His rage, narcissism, blasphemy and profanity will destroy him in the end.

What is pathetic is the fact that Obama has to answer to these people.

Losers, all.

Your spot on! This is just a ruse by Kos to make Obambi’s fake move to the center look real. This is so obvious even the media should be able to figure it out.

I think anyone short of a Che T-shirt wearing Communist Manifesto quoting Commie would make the Kossaks mad for being too “mainstream”.

Progressive and Fascist

historically are interchangeable.

The “progressives” supported Hitler and Mussolini’s programs until they were wooed by Stalin.
