In reply to the discussion: Constantly referring to President Obama as a "used car salesman" is expected of a RW racist. [View all]raindaddy
(1,370 posts)Pretty much the fallout when you campaign as a populist Democrat and govern as a Wall Street owned moderate Republican. People who post here are politically savvy and they're legitimately angry and disappointed. Like it or not what you're seeing is that anger and disappointment being expressed in different ways. This is what I appreciate the most about Democrats, they aren't going to fall in line and blindly follow the party line like Republicans. And if the viewpoint of this forum narrows to the point of not allowing dissent then it becomes nothing but a party tool.
If I remember correctly LBJ was called a lot worse than a "used car salesman" by white and black Democrats.... Barack Obama doesn't need to be shielded by suggestions that his critics are "racists". Reminds me of what RW Republicans do when there's any criticism of Clarence Thomas, Alan West, etc from the left...
