Obama promisd and open fair governemnt for the people. He is not delivering on that promise. That is why people are pisssed. He threw a lot of people under the bus using your logic i.e. I can do anythign I want as Bush is worse.
Do you honestly believe that if Brown wins big tomorrow its because Obama's gov't was transparent enough. Seriously. Is that the message you will get from that win?
Let me promise you, I am way to the left of you.
I doubt it even if you are, so what? That's not the point.
The reason people are pissed is because of Obama cutting medicare payments to fund the 30 million uninsured and the 40% tax on unions and other good health care packages instead of just taxing the rich. All people see is more welfare for the health industry at the expense of the middle class.
Has Obama said he won't let the tax cuts for the rich expire next year?
Letting wall street steal our money and then helping them to do it by putting people cozy with Wall street into power and by not even allowing us to see where the 14 trillion went to Wall street.
If I remember correctly, it was Bush and Paulson, not Obama, who would not let people know where the money was going.
Wall street is making record profits while we endure 20% unemployment. I watched him pander to the large banks makind it almost impossible ot get a home loan, when he needed to do the opposite.
Wall Street is not making record profits. Most banks are hoping to make a profit this quarter. In the meantime, the feds have made money for taxpayers on the money that's been lent and repaid. Plus, the Fed. Reserve made a record profit of $54 billion last year.
And then there is all the shares the feds own in the banks. When they sell those shares, they will make a nice chunk of change since the shares of most banks have appreciated nicely since last year and should improve even more this year.
And I have Elizabeth Warren and Paul Volker, Stiglitz and Krugman all saying Obama is helping wall street steal our money.
Links please.
Not prosecuting the tortureres.
The unwinable Afghanistan war, and listenting to the brain dad military; and not even allowing the imporation of Canadian drugs and not taking insurance companies to task.
This is just silly....I won't even argue this one. If you really think the US could just close up shop in Afghanistan in 24 hours without causing a great deal of turmoil and losing a great deal of face in the world, you live in a different world than I. The easiest thing for Obama to do was walk away. |
