It is frustrating...

[kentuck]

...and puzzling.

As to why such a great orator as our President is unable to define the destruction of this gang of Tea Party thugs and their Republican conspirators and what they are doing to our country?

The responses seem so simple and easy to make. Yet, they never come. Sometimes the frustration turns to anger. I catch myself asking the question: "Are you a fucking Republican!?" If not, why do you continue acting like one.?

Soon, everyone will come to the conclusion that if it walks like a duck and it quacks like a duck, then it is a duck.

This lack of fight and willingness to surrender has reached a critical stage.

I truly want to give this President every benefit of the doubt and every opportunity to show that he speaks for us. But he is making it very, very difficult. How much longer can we hold on to hope?

1. Thank you...

I've appreciated the recent batch of your posts saying exactly what I'm thinking but in a calmer, clearer, and more snark-free way than I'm able to muster. Recommended.

2. I believe he is holding back...

(or at least hope he is... otherwise there's no explanation)
But I believe he is holding back to slam the republicans
with both barrels when it matters most... election time.
If Obama can parlay this fiasco into an all around Democratic victory
he'll be a genius and a hero. Otherwise....

3. It's frightening

For the first time today I could actually see dems not winning in the next election and truly, nothing could frighten me more.
