>>In the most cynical reckoning, Obama's goal is to get elected.<<
you don't pay attention. if that was it, they'd treat the people like kings. when 99% of people call up your hotline and tell you not to bail out the oligarch casino that imploded, you'd listen to the people.
instead, they flipped americans the bird and back stopped the oligarchs to the tune of $24,000,000,000,000 and counting.
that's money the electorate has to pay back.
politicians want wealth and power. getting elected is a means to that end. once in office, they know who will feather their nest - just ask bill clinton where his $100,000,000 came from since he left office.
>>Destroying the middle class will not help him to achieve that goal.<<
it is what he is doing - so you need to figure out why he's running policies that do what you say he doesn't want to do.
>>The forces that are hitting the standards of living of the middle class have been gathering strength for many years.<<
and are the *direct* result of government's debt inducing policies. people can't become debt slaves unless government enables easy credit.
>>Obama just happened to be the one given the task of overseeing the inevitable economic collapse that followed years of living on credit. Is Obama responsible for the loss of jobs to China? Think!<<
i never said he was. he would've done it, if he had been in power, though. he just lacked opportunity. look, he was bad mouthing NAFTA in detroit during the campaign. canadian officials became alarmed and questioned his team about it. they were told, "don't worry, he isn't going to undue anything. he's just doing the campaign thing" - meaning lying through his sociopathic teeth to tell people what they want to hear so he gains power and wealth at their expense.

you'll notice he didn't talk about bargaining down pharma prices during his little speech last night. why? he met with the lobbyists he lied about when he said they wouldn't run his white house and he did so in secret - contrary to his campaign lie that he wouldn't do that.
he cut a back door deal and promised big pharma he wouldn't negotiate down prices. why? big pharma paid him off and he's a financial whore, that's why.

why is obama spending 5% more on the military than war monger bush?
he didn't run on that platform - he lied and he's now paying back the military industrial complex (owned in large part by banksters).
i completely understand why a narcissistic sociopath lies through his teeth and has no qualms about burying a nation to further his personal goals.
what i don't get is how people like youo go along with his plan and defend it.
he's victimizing *you* and increasing the financial slavery of your descendants. that's alright with you?
oh, and don't get me started how he allows people who should be in jail to run the nation's financial system into the ground.
if you like $11 trillion in debt, you'll love $22 trillion. if you like 5% interest, you'll love 30% interest - oh, that's right, the banksters are taking that 0% money from the people and lending back out at 30%. god bless them for their kindness!
