14. I may be unhappy, but at least I'm not miserably angry.
How many strawmen are there? Let me count the ways...

1) I never suggested I was the ONLY one beneath Omama's and the Third Way's notice - I know there are plenty down here with me.

2) Who claimed that Obama is the cause of all my misery? Republican policies, republican wars, republican catering to the business elite, republican support of globalist economic to the detriment of the nation - THOSE are the cause of most my miseries (and yours, whether you admit it or not), and Obama is in a position to change that. Instead he continues it. He's but one corporatist among many. I have noting particular against him - it's his policies (which he lied about in the campaign) I have a problem with.

3) Who says I don't? I am every bit as much opposed to regressive congress critter as I am to the laws they pass which Obama signs. But I have no veto power - if they pass a shit law, I can't stop it. He can.

Incidentally, I deny that there is a Democrat in the WH. There is a Third Way president in the WH - and what is Third Way other than someone who is neither Republican or Democrat? I'd love to have a leftie in the WH - but I'd settle for a Democrat.

Side note: who's this "we" who 'got it out' of me? Playing tag team with another DLCer, or just a little bit schizo?
