So true. Obama has been a total joke on Democrats. I honestly believe that this clown is a Republican deep plant. The man certainly has no balls.
That is why we needed Hilary. She would have gone in and rammed single payer health care down the Republicans throat when we had a majority in the House and Senate.
Anyone who thinks they can "work" with Republicans is an idiot.
Prepare for at least 4 more years of Republician ruin.

If a real Dem had run, like Russ Feingold, he'd have beaten McCain/Palin by an even bigger margin and we'd now be looking at a long-term progressive realignment. All Obama did was make sure the chance was pissed away. He should just withdraw now and get ready for hitting the million-dollar corporate speaking circuit.

Dems can only win this time if we nominate somebody who fights for workers and challenges the war machine. There is no center anymore...there's just the haves- and have-nots, those who win under the status quo and those who are its victims. And the victims are the majority, so they are the only people Dems should bother appealing to.

It's fun to listen to whiners about Obama - those that thought he could walk on water and part the red sea before he was elected, with "Hope" stickers on their cars.
You never had a grip on reality in the first place.
Obama is still the man.
Oh, hello Honeybucket Annie.

Not walk on water-just fight for the people who voted for him, instead of the rich.

Oh, and Frankieb...what IS your deal with ANN? When you keep referring to her as a "honeybucket", do you mean it as a compliment or as some sort of insult? You've kept up the "tradition" of calling her that for months now, or maybe years. Will you just tell everyone what this is about already? Jeez!!!!

It's really interesting that you read even minorities dumping on the President. Even though he was clear and stated before he was elected that we would be in the mess that the Bush Cheney administration created for years to come. But, you apparently didn't believe him. It's as if Americans today have the attention span on 5 year olds.

Now, he isn't perfect and I challenge anyone to point to a President that was perfect in every approach. I agree that his biggest mistake was not ramming single payer healthcare through and driving forward. That was his naive attempt at taking a bipartisan approach. Doesn't work in our culture today. You gain the upper hand first, then have mercy. Republicans and their sheep are driven by appearance and ego but, under the surface they're mostly vacuous, insecure followers.

Jobs-It almost seems like evryone but me is in denial about where all of the job opportunities are right now. So, I'm going to say it once again, and this time I hope someone will pay attention. Over and over, we've heard that we need more engineers and scientists to drive ingenuity. But, what should be stated plainly is this simple fact: American jobs are now going to India and Chinaand we don't or won't drive our workforce to retrain and take these jobs back. So, Americam businesses have responded to remain competitive and are now outsourcing. That's actually the counterproductive, simple, and lazy approach. I could tell you so much more about the supposed "talent" from India with phony, unverifiable degrees and credentials that are trained over a few months and are now holding American jobs right over here paying $65 per hour and up. Duh!!! Without the degree requirements we could train literally hundreds of thousands of Americans to do the exact same jobs at what I'm sure would be a much higher rate of producivity. But, nobody wants to acknowledge or admit it. Even the current CTO of America is of Indian descent.

I'm certain that this all WAY over Honeybucket Annie's head as she's too busy being concerned about Chris Brown and Lindsay Lohan tweets and more inclined to simply parrot what she thinks is the populous opinion on politics without any real substantive knowledge. So, lets hear from some of you other unfortunate readers that stumbled upon this mishmash.

Please wait...
