We all got duped, big time! We are making comparisons between Obama and Bush, but let's not forget the stupidity of "puts his foot in his mouth" Biden. Remember when we called Palin a dumb choice for a vice president, that was not too long ago my friends! I think i just realized there is no lesser of two evils, just plain evil..

Here is a great article relating to the commission on debt that recently exposed the group as being very hard right politically. How can we actually grant an extensions of tax cuts for the wealthy when this right wing commission won't beef up tax receipts from the rich!

Yeah, I'm pretty sure Axelrod has since said that they're going to keep fighting....

Wrong. Huffington Post stirring the shit pot.

I'm working on a candid letter to the president; what should I include?

HAHA
. . .It's funny because it's a blatant lie. Good job Huff. post, keep on spinning.

so much for change....

When I voted for Obama I thought I was helping to elect a fighter. Instead I got the towel boy. Obama is too eager to throw in the towel on things he should be fucking fighting for.
Dont get me wrong, Obama has done some good things but im tired of his constant catering to the right.

Not surprising. Add this to the list of reasons why I no longer Support Obama. Fuck the Democrats! This is just more proof that the corporations and the rich are in total control of both parties, and thus our country.

It seems like the Republicans also elected a President during the 2010 elections cycle.

Obama is a craven coward with a spine of a jellyfish.

Well, that about cinches it. I've had my suspicions since the start. Obama has done nothing but capitulate --on health care reform, continued raiding of medical marijuana facilities, don't ask don't tell, and so on. Now with this, I can only conclude Obama is a plant. He was a *selected* candidate, put in place by the establishment to present a facade of change to the left, while serving a a beating post for the right. Nothing more.

It's over folks. The America we were raised to believe in is completely gone. You got one decision now. Do you rev0lt or do you lie down and accept your subjugation?

if corporations are to be treated as persons they should be held responsible as persons, and be subject to the same penalties as the poorest of us. namely, the death penalty! if a corporation does some horrible crime they should be disbanded!

I have a question. With the Republican back on power, what would happen if the Bush era tax cuts were allowed to expire and new tax cuts, presumably for the middle and lower class of the United States, were to be pushed through by the presidential administration?

FYI, I'm not trying to defend Obama or his administration for continuing these tax cuts. I am actually curious as to what potential road blocks they could realistically face if they decided to implement a new tax break for people who actually needed it.

I will gladly pay more taxes, to drag down the rich with me.
I would gladly give more money to the gov't...if they FOR ONCE would make those rich selfish asshole pay their fair share.

If this happens , it's a blow to progressives and the middle class.

How can any reasonable person think this can help reduce the deficet, when it has shown to increase every year?

The progressives need to signal an end to the wealthy and elite that truly control this country.......cause the middle class cons (a contradiction to the middle class) are too fucking stupid to figure out whats happening!!!

How the hell are they going to make up for the 5 trillion dollar per 5 year deficit this will create?

Don't you cons understand that your handlers want the country to be buried in debt so they can take away your social security and Medicare?

All i know is that at some point the pendulum will swing back and it will hurt.

methinks that the economy is still shitty, but the wealthy will be spending big for their spoiled children this holiday season, now that they're a little easier off with their fucking taxes!

disappointment and frustration fills the air space of those who wanted change... FUUCCKK man!!!

:(

1. Let's take away the "personhood" of multinational corporations.

2. Let's raise the price of cigarettes to $200 a pack (using the new found revenue to fund smaller, community-based economies), raise gasoline to $100 a gallon and see what the people can do with all that extra money and energy.

Q: Why elect other people to do the things we ought to do for ourselves and our communities?

A: So we can stuff our ears with ipods, our eyes with organized sporting events, and continue sending off our youngest & most able to die in ironic wars, for the benefit of the wealthiest class.

I'm glad I worked so hard on the campaign to get you in office to do the exact opposite of this. fuck it i quit.

Oh thank god. Now I don't have to explain to my dog why he can't have that Gucci collar and matching leash he's always wanted. Merry Christmas to all!

this shit is gonna get ugly. and soon. once the military (which is mostly made up of the poor) and the rest of the poor realize that we're all fucked, i'd hate to be a politician, or one of the rich.

Meet the new boss, same as the old boss!!!!!

current, if you dont fix this spam shit Im never coming here again

ok how about we dont do the tax cuts and get 700 billion dollars a year instead? hows that sound?

if i had a majority for one day, i would pass everything I wanted and let the next congress deal with the repurcussions.

What treachery. You are no leader Obama. My son thanks you for leaving this on his generation's shoulders.

"[The natural right to be free of the debts of a previous generation is] a salutary curb on the spirit of war and indebtment, which, since the modern theory of the perpetuation of debt, has drenched the earth with blood, and crushed its inhabitants under burdens ever accumulating." --Thomas Jefferson to John Wayles Eppes, 1813.

There's only one party in Washington.

Dear Mr President:

You think that bowing to the Republican controlled House of Representatives and riding the fence on key platforms, which won your election (i.e. DADT, a public option health care reform), might win you a second term, but Mr. Obama, you are turning your back on majority of America. Stand up and GROW SOME FUCKING BALLS. Do more in one term while pissing off the system that you vowed to change from within and maybe the people will stand behind you a second time since you delivered a check that your ass just seem it can't cash. Be a man.

One of your pissed off voters,
me
