I never said it was personal. In fact, I suspect you all like him. However, your expectations are set so high... You have a point about expectations after 8 years of Bush hell. I was forgiving about not getting out of Iraq faster, I was forgiving about the build in Afghanistan (which is going nowhere). The health care deal in my humble opinion was good work, a little weak, but better than anyone else has done. But extending the tax cuts... that was a last straw. That wasn't a little weak, that was major wimp. And still no revenue in this deal. Yes the Republicans are assholes. You don't give in to assholes, you call them assholes to their face, and keep repeating it. Then you fight them for what's right. Coy is not attractive in the most powerful man in the world.

It's really very simple Ted. The Republicans are a gang of terrorist ass-rapers. Obama is the sheriff. Istead of locking them up, he's told them (and convinced the city council to go along), "Okay, you can rape some of them.". Which you view as a compromise. Other than getting the next ass-raping moved PAST his re-election, what did WE get?
