Woulda, coulda, shoulda, this person needs to resign, this person should be hired. GIVE ME A BREAK |
|
Seriously, give me a damned break.
Yesterday sucked, but its politics. We need to move forward. Are changes needed? Hell yes but lets make smart changes, lets LISTEN TO EACH OTHER! Let's lift up what has worked, lets learn from what didn't work and lets find out why it didn't work.
24 months is a long time and we will be on a damned roller coaster. We need to regroup and rethink, but lets quit this woulda, coulda, shoulda.
Any student of history should have been able to predict that the midterms were going to tough. The fact that we held on to the Senate actually says something.
Transformational change, which was promised and is what we are getting, doesn't happen overnight. The GOP is going to attempt to make the next 24 months a living hell for Obama, we can stand with him or we can spend our time acting like petulant little spoiled brats.
What is going to be?

15. Nobody's acted like spoiled brats. All we've done is stand up for our principles |
|
All you've done(if you actually ARE a "radical activist")is give up on yours, over and over again.
There's no way it would have been "radical" or even progressive to unquestioningly support every Obama policy decision and to refrain from all public dissent. It would have been and it would be surrender.
And it can't be radical to do what you're going to do now and defend every rightward post-election policy swing.
Re-electing a Democrat as president, by itself, is worth nothing. 1996 proved that.
I challenge you, o Great Master.
Enlighten us as to what you, the TRUE and only "Radical" believes we should do?
your unworthy disciples away your sage teachings.

"petulant little spoiled brats" is going to be the winning response, though no one is going to state it in quite that way.

I get a kick out of this. "If he does what I say, they I'll stop bashing him".

Perhaps the Republicans will start supporting union causes soon?

I think it's an admirable thing you're going to do confronting the President like that :thumbsup:

6. He is standing with you, but you are sitting in the corner with your hands on your ears... |
|
. . .screaming "la la la la I can't here you la la la"
Health care reform check
Wall Street reform check
Lily Ledbetter act check
Close to repeal of DADT check
Draw down of troops in Iraq check
Student loan reform check
Saving the auto industry check
Working on creating green jobs check
There is a lot more that he, along with the help of Pelosi and Reid, has accomplished. But you don't know it because you are sitting in the corner.

8. See, I think we Democrats are entitled |
|
to Woulda, coulda, shoulda, this person needs to resign, this person should be hired ,talk after a loss like last night. You say LISTEN TO EACH OTHER! Then it's more or less shut up and stand up for Obama. Too confusing.

14. THE basic objective should be to get up on our own two feet and advocate for ourselves. |
|
The President is going to do whatever he thinks he needs to do, as long as we are dependent upon him, we will not be his peer.
