People, people. The GOP will only destroy Obama
if we don't pitch in and help him rebuild this nation.

Quit with the handwringing and angst and pitch in. We have work to do.

1. First, we need to get them out of the way.
Any good we do will be undone by the fucks on the radio.

2. you give the GOP too much credit and the american people not enough to see through their BS.
Obama has got them right where he wants them, the more frustrated and angry they get, the better he looks and the more mistakes they make.

I actually want to thank them for continuing their stupidity, because it give Bill Maher and Jon Stewart more to work with.

As Obama's approval rating soars they going down kicking and screaming. They are giving us a gift, in 2010 they will be owned.

Edit: Typo

4. And if we help him rebuild the GOP
they'll destroy him even faster. Right now the GOP is about as discredited as it's ever been -- all its policies, initiatives, and signature "ideas" (tax cuts, deregulation, permanent war) have been shown to be the utterly mendacious and antidemocratic big business lies we always knew they were.

If we don't kick them while they're down -- let their stupid banks and munitions factories fail for pete's sake -- they'll get right back up and sneak back into power for another eight or twelve years or God forbid more.

No, this is our golden opportunity to set the record straight, the one we've waited 45 years for, and we should NOT help Obama or anyone else cover for Bushler crimes.

7. Seeking justice and supporting Obama are not mutually exclusive.
And if the O admin lets Bush and Cheney's lies go uncorrected and their crimes go unaddressed, they'll become Obama's, and there won't be anything left to support.

9. How about simultaneous with health care, fixing the economy, needing the appearance of fair.

10. Because the war economy is bankrupting us.
We're in Iraq and Afghanistan mainly because it's profitable for the "defense" industry, which is a sector of the economy that is ironically impervious to those oh-so-sacred market forces and totally dependent on lying to the American public and blackmailing and bribing Congress.

Let it die for pete's sake. If we don't, they'll eat us alive, starting with Social Security, which they hate on principal.

There is nothing to be gained by allowing parasitic war profiteers and banksters to flourish or even surive. Let the whole stinking, evil, depraved and criminal MIC shadow goverment die. Good riddance to very bad rubbish.

:mad:
