Democrats have become spineless snivel drip water babies

They call themselves Christians and Good Democrats and Liberals and Conservatives and what they really are is spineless Republican lap dogs.

Obama ran for POTUS with a clear agenda. Health care, Clean Energy, Financial Reform, Education Reform. You all rallied behind your token black man and then disagreed with every accomplishment he made. He is not the White President, he is their Affirmative Action President. Many of you knew he was going to be your target when you cast your vote. They cast a racist vote to prove they weren't a racist.

Health care reform passed and what did they say? Oh, that is not going to work. My premiums are going to go up. This is going to bankrupt America. My Grand Babies are going to be paying for this black mans mistakes forever!

Wall Street reform passed and what did they say? This is horrible! Why do we need to save Wall Street! Let them fail! This is going to send the national debt and deficit through the roof! Too big to fail?

The American Recovery and Investment Act passed and what did they say? Where are the jobs? Where is the money? I don't see any recovery.

He saved the Auto Industry and saved millions of jobs and turned the market around and what did they say? Why should we bail out auto makers? When did the Government become an auto dealer? Is a car Czar going to save the industry?

People complained about job losses, complained about rich people, complained about the good and the bad. It is certain that many complained and still do. After 99 weeks you can't get a job? How much of that time in percentage was spent looking for a job and how much of that time was surfing porn on the internet?

The Government hasn't failed them. They have failed the Government. So while the guilty sit and enjoy Twinkies and ho ho's that they buy with Government food stamps and pay their internet bill with government welfare and unemployment insurance welfare remember this; You are the problem for allowing this to happen.

As I sit here in my 8 bedroom, 9 bathroom, 3 story concrete house with an ocean view I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for remembering me. One of the top 2% earners that you are giving a huge tax break to because the guilty are spineless, snivel drip water babies.

I always thought Democrats were fighters and strong but now I am thinking I was wrong.

You don't stand behind your President, you stand behind John Boehner. Now our president has to sacrifice just to make a deal. I was on the Presidents side. Now I have to side with his critics who want to block the Bush Tax Cuts. We have a Government to run and it takes tax money to pay for it. Boehner want's to cut taxes for the insanely rich and wants the middle and low income people to pay the bill. The debt and deficit are spiraling out of control and borrowing more is not going to fix the problem.

It is time for tax breaks, Bush Tax Cuts, unemployment insurance and living off off the Government credit card to stop. It will hurt, unfortunately the angry voters didn't consider the consequences of their actions.

From a wise poster:

lifeisgood43

AK... I'm sure the people who hate Pres Obama will be here soon. They are attacking him on another seed by calling him weak because he asked Pres Clinton some advice. Pres Obama is not going to win these people no matter what he does.

Case in point on the name calling by the people who can't stand Pres Obama: He is weak when he seeks advice. He is an angry "Black man when he gets tough. He is arrogant when he makes decisions on his own. He can't win no matter what type of attitudes that he brings to the table. Hell, even MSNBC is grilling Pres Obama for this type of crap.

WHY WOULD PRES OBAMA SEEK A 2nd TERM.

WHY WOULD PRES OBAMA SEEK A 2nd TERM.

I was so thankful he wanted to do a first term. When there is a man of intelligence, integrity , morality and a multicultural background, one has the perfect leader of a free country. When someone has a gift, it is to everyone's benefit to use and appreciate that gift if it is offered. Obama has enacted excellent reform and changes. As for asking Clinton's advice, that is the mark of a true leader. They seek the best counsel they can find on matters and listen. If you went to a dr with an illness he was not specialized in, would you rather he treat you or refer you to someone he knew had better expertise in your illness? It is not a sign of weakness to seek counsel- it is the mark integrity.

BOis an idiot that is in it only for the benefits to his family. He has no experience still and should never have been put in office with no real world ethics. He is for himself only and when his own party cuts on him he immediately lashes out at them. Nope, BO is just as bad as Bush and maybe/probably much worse.

Information on incoming conservatives more available than information brought to the public view for the highest office in the land. The entire staff less experienced than any in history. The fact Obama was a socialist which is just another form of communism was available prior to the election. It is democrats way to spend and tax. So you got one out of two or, maybe both. Why such big o tears? They have given you every entitlement under the sun but that's the way isn't it? It's never enough. This is how you are and why socialism is a complete failure and why you are a complete failure. They could give you the world but the world is never enough even though it can never be self supporting but this factor makes no difference to you because it's never enough and you don't have to pay for it. It can not be paid for. Like the little boy in the candy store everything looks good to you but if the Mother can't afford it baby cries. Poor poor big o tears cry baby.

And you objected of course when the same was done to Bush by your side of the aisle. About time MSNBC started grilling Obama, they protected him long enough, they were looking foolish.

    What makes it sad is the simple truth that our debt now represents a threat to the national security of our country.
    Bumper sticker politics and political gridlock do not address this issue at all.
    Tax cuts for billionaires do not work.
    Neither does nanny state entitlements.
    Everyone wants to point fingers yet no one wants to take action.
    The ship is sinking and teaspoons will not bale us out of it.

      i see democrats cowering. i see republicans saying, "Cut spending, Cut social programs, Give more to the obscenely rich"

      I see Americans begging for a handout while they donate their spine and over use their butts.

      It sucks eggs on both sides of the isle and right down the middle.

      Tax cuts are not the answer. Giving billions to the rich is not the answer. Cowering before McConell and Boner is never the right answer.

      Canceling all of the "On Credit" spending, Bush Tax Cuts and extra stimulus has to stop. We have to pay our debts, look good on paper and win back confidence through balanced books.

      All that you have said here is necessary and very doable. What is lacking is the will and leadership. Each time an American leader makes a move in the last three decades, there have been hundreds, thousands, millions ready to pounce and perform the "gop leadership" snake dance. While our leaders take vicious verbal lashings, a sense of giving up becomes almost palpable. This is called taking a beating. Eventually it becomes a very real phenomenon called the captured hare syndrome where the entire nervous system shuts down in anticipation of life killing pain.

      Psychology is in heavy play here and it requires the courage that comes from knowledge and the armament of facts. Without a steely heroism to counter this near anathema from the right, Americans become like deer captured in the headlights and without the will to overcome their stasis.

      It is going to take a hero, an individual who is capable of waging open war against those who would take us down. It will take a leader who will not wait for the war but will seek it out or create it if none exists, not violent war but relentless attack after attack, after attack, after attack. With a hero going out in front, the American people will follow him/her to the depths of hell and back to snatch America out of the talons of the rich and put it back in the hands of citizens where it belongs. Without a hero, their nervous systems are already in the process of shutting down.

      You are correct in your anger and your drive. When do you take up the gauntlet?

        I was heavily invested before I was 25. I worked hard, made good choices and spend wisely. I have a house on the beach because it was huge and cheap.

        You want $10,000 then tap the stimulus sitting in your state that has not been injected into the economy. There are billions in stimulus dollars that states are sitting on and collecting interest on. It was supposed to go into the hands of entrepreneurs and programs that would dump it into the economy, that plan does not work when it is not spent.

        There are probably programs in your state that have American Recovery and investment dollars available for you if you have a good idea.

        AK.... didn't even say anything about political parties.

        I too have a small auto business for last 10+ years that is doing okay. I give out just as much as I keep which use to upsets my wife. I had to explain that we have everything we need and people in the world needs help to. I'm a true liberal and socialist Dem. I can't stand anyone without. America is suppose to help those who need by any mean necessary.

        Why can we spend Billions on Military equipment when we can't even do right by taking care of those who we send to kill, die and get hurt-physically and emotionally

        I was an independent businessman for 50 years, until my retirement. I was an Eisenhower Republican which would be defined as a socialist bleeding heart liberal today.

        I too was ALWAYS more concerned with not only the welfare of the public at large but more intimately with the condition and status of my employees than I was with my own enrichment.

        There seems to be a wrongly perceived undercurrent by the present day "conservatives" that a niggardly personality is the be all, end all of proper human thinking. It is patently obvious that a niggardly personality is a defect, not an attribute of the human condition...

        a sad testament to the lack of social responsibility by an apparent majority of Americans who have degenerated into the rotten insanity of greed.

        Republicans have been suckered for 30 years with voodoo economics, free trade and lower taxes screwing the governments revenue base. Democrats have been suckered for even trying to play along with such tripe as IF you could play along with f'ing your revenues.....unless enough dems were in on it. And All Of Us Are Paying For It.

        It's a g'd''m dog and pony show with the dems losing and conceeding a little more each time.

        People it is the Blue Dog Dems. Check how many times they have voted with Reps to help them filibuster many things and then check what type of Bills and Laws. Now I heard that the fake Dems are angry at Pres Obama for making this deal. It is like the Blue Dog Dems get to attack Pres Obama with their votes and fake anger. It is like they are getting a free pass while everyone attacks Pres Obama.

        It is so sad that his own base is attacking the man for meeting with Pres Clinton.

        Once again, WHY WOULD HE SEEK A 2ND TERM.

        Also once again and I will finish certain comments by saying this: Those people who stay home on mid-term elections and don't vote, you are a problem and need to get your act together and get up and vote by any means

          Kevin- I agree with you tax cuts are not the answer. I disagree that it is the electorates fault. I supported Obama because he was not going to be a corporatist. If you can't see how much he has done to advance the corporate strategy and strengths then I feel sorry for you. Obama's corporate friends are killing my industry and now they are going to get a tax break. Even more money available to destroy my job with. NOAA is using money from the stimulus to kill jobs.

          Obama doesn't have the guts to stand up to the Repubs? I think that is a clever story but it doesn't wash. JJ
