The President Said We Probably Won't Agree With Everything He Does.....

[global1]

While campaigning he said this. So suck it up people. Give the guy a chance. This is not over yet by a long shot. This is also more than a baby step. He has 3 years more to go to make things right. He could have 7 years more - if we don't screw it up for him now.

I don't want another 8 years of a BushCo/Repug administration. It seems that if we keep up this bickering here - that's what we might be headed for.

Then you would have something to complain about. Maybe that's all we're good for - is complaining.

1. Well there's ONE indisputable truth he told while campaigning...

I guess that's something.

2. If He Vetos The Bill He Doesn't Own It

If He Signs It He Owns It.

3. That's right just like he told the nation he owns the wars now

that's what leaders do.

The Senate bill is NOT the final bill, the House and the Senate now have to go to conference. That is the bill we should be focused on.

4. Considering...

...the time it took to get this bill to this point, in three more years he should be able to get at least 3 more bills done, maybe!

And why should the people have to suck it up, that's the same crap we kept hearing from the morons from Freeperland, now we hear it from DU members.

Tell you what why don't you go Cheney yourself, becaues the people of this country have sacrificed more then enough, and maybe it's about time that this president actually start becoming a leader who faces conflict, not run from it!!!

5. Yes, but

7. We're not screwing it up for him

He's screwing it up for us. He has blown the two biggest issues so far -- the war, and now health care. And also other important issues. His problem is he has bad judgment. He's a gifted speaker, but that's not enough to be president.

8. No, I will disagree with him as much as I want to. I didn't vote for him to enable repugs and

the corporatocracy. And funny, but I didn't think I'd HAVE to disagree with him on THAT.

There are some things you should just be able to assume you'd get when you voted for Obama. Like somebody who was for the little guy.

But that isn't what happened and I for one will not "suck it up."

10. Yup, the old saying about a house divided comes to mind
