All done. Finished. Kaput. Over a giveaway that a bad fortune teller on a crack spree could of seen. That did it for you. All the things we said that would happen, have happened. All our warnings over serial mis-steps were ignored.

But you know what? We are still here. Now you guys are going to leave? If we can gut it out, so can you. We were told to suck it up and take one for the team, now some here are wanting the ball and going home?

Yes, he is an imperfect President. Mystifyingly bland and inacapable of taking a stand. But he's ours. We gave him the job.

It is going to get so much worse it is going to make your head spin. The republicans are in control and they take no prisoners. If we stand here together and work for change and just accept the fact he is just not into us as much as we want, we still have a voice as Democrats.

1. We have a voice? Not anymore, we don't
And since DADT isn't history yet, I think you and I both need to take stock of our options for the next two years.

4. I think the Democratic Party and the Socialist Parties should be working together
Screw the Greens, and to HELL with playing with Repubs

It's time for the old Liberty, Equality Fraternity to return and SOCIALISM no longer to be a dirty word


All of you know in your heart of hearts its going to take some serious Socialism to get our Country out of this mess - unless it implodes.

Edit to add: I have always been sitting with you, and I sit with you now. Just call this a last straw. We all have our limits.

14. I was done during the oil gusher in the Gulf
Because there were no excuses for him to hide behind. How that was handled was purely executive decision making, and he made decisions that favored the corporations over the people. There was no republican blocking or filibustering him, just him.

Crossing the Rubicon, its not just a book.

15. I doubt what you are saying....

No matter what we do.. or how hard we work.. we will never be able to make Mr. Obama act like a Democrat.

It's not an issue of whether he is stupid or spineliess or evil.. the damage is done.

Our Country was in extreme crisis in 2008.. and now we are in exreme-extreme-extreme crisis in 2010. Mr. Obama has driven us deeper into chaos and despair.

...Our only hope...is to mount a strong primary challenge.. and hope we get another chance at survival.

18. "The gays" were one of the tools they used to mug all the rest of us.
If only we could take your excellent advice and sit down with you. We might finally learn an essential truth, and then stand up with you.

19. "Mystifyingly bland and incapable of taking a stand"
But he's just not as into YOU as you want?

Gads, it's a good thing this isn't a relationship. Why the hell would he be interested in someone who thought that about him?

:rofl:

But despite your insults, he'll stay and stick it out and deal with the shitheel Republicans and the Left who are currently spitting on him while wishing he loved them :crazy: and the whackadoodle Tea types who are cradling their Second Amendment Remedies.
