Now do you see the problem?

1. Yes, cancer, WE see the problem,

and its YOU!

[woo me with science]

2. No. That is FAR from "the problem."

Until we are honest that our own party is *also* working against us, we will not be able to fix a damned thing.

The corporate war against us is bipartisan. That is why fierce opposition to it among the people needs to be bipartisan, too. We need *everyone* to scream bloody murder about what both Democrats and Republicans are doing, because they are doing it TOGETHER, and it is predatory.

At a certain point we have to stop the knee-jerk partisan response of attacking only the other team instead of focusing on the oligarchs and their purchased politicians in BOTH parties who are impoverishing ALL of us.

This is how they keep us divided. This is how they keep the agenda going, by making sure we hate each other so much that we cannot conceive of uniting to stop them.

The corporate assaults are deadly serious now, and they are bipartisan. We need to be uniting now across the country, Democrats, Republicans...ALL OF US...to stop what they are doing to ALL of us.

THIS is the economy in which Obama is doing these things:

It's time to stop denying reality. We are LOSING OUR COUNTRY, and the WAR AGAINST US is BIPARTISAN. We cannot afford to pretend otherwise anymore.

5. Could you give it a rest?

Start your own thread.

Oh, and besides, all that stuff wouldn't fit in a meme off of FB.

[woo me with science]

6. None of us can afford

to "give it a rest."

The corporatists in Washington, Republicans and Democrats alike, certainly aren't resting.

[riqster]

12. Yes, but you aren't convincing anyone by posting the same sort of thing ad nauseum

So instead of giving it a rest, try something different.

[woo me with science]

15. Listing his major policies always seems to bother people.

You would think he would be concerned about that.

[ljm2002]

16. Hear, hear!

And please, woo, don't "give it a rest". It is far past time that people recognize the reality we are facing.

[woo me with science]

17. +1 It's important not to stop,

because the propaganda never does.

4. Dear Republicans: You LOST THE FUCKING ELECTION, ASSHOLES

and we all know the only reason you have legislative power is b/c you gerrymandered districts, you assholes.

You Republicans ARE THE DEFINITION OF TYRANNY.

[bluestate10]

8. Republicans get away with gerrymandering districts because the people that will be the

most deeply hurt by their policies by and large don't vote. There are some on DU that rail against the 1%, or the wealthy in general, yet don't give a single minute of credence to the fact if people that are the most deeply hurt by republican policies registered and voted, republicans would change their policies or get booted out of office. The self appointed "progressives" would rather bash President Obama and democratic leaders than admit the problem lies with people that need government help, but who don't care to vote to protect their interests.

[RainDog]

11. I don't know anyone on this board who does what you say n/t

[bluestate10]

7. Most republican voters are dismally ignorant when it comes to facts.

I was out one day and heard a guy railing against President Obama and Executive Orders. The fool said that all President Obama did was write Executive Orders. The fact that President Obama would have to write 100% more Executive Orders than he has written to match the total for George W Bush was completely lost on the conservative idiot. The fact President Obama would have to write 164% more Executive Orders to match the total of Ronald Reagan was equally lost of that fucking moron. I realized that arguing with stupid is futile and didn't make an attempt to correct the ignorant piece of shit.

[cbrer]

10. And their vote counts as much as yours!

We have a lot of work to do.

I have 2 hopes.

1. We're able to open the eyes of a majority of the population.

2. The environment won't collapse before it cannot adequately support human life.

[riqster]

13. Two good hopes. nt

[cbrer]

9. More and more people

Are becoming aware of the counter-productive nature of modern Republicans. The fact that President Obama was re-elected shows a growing knowledge of the narrow, self serving, destructive nature of the GOP policies that has been allowed to fester in our nation.

If this will translate to a removal of these puss-filled cankers on the American political landscape remains to be seen. If it does NOT happen, it won't be for lack of evidence.

Our activism, as well as our insistence that our leaders follow a progressive agenda, will tilt the balance for a greater future for our nation.

I hope the environment can wait!

Peace out
