More broken Campaign Promises
Back room dealings were supposed to be a thing of the past.
I bought that line of bullshit hook, line, and sinker too. Silly me…
Wall Street and Big Oil run the show
Reporting from Washington – President Obama will announce new plans to drill for oil and natural gas off America’s coasts Wednesday but will rule out drilling off California, Oregon and Washington state through 2017, administration officials say.
I’m speechless.

The tale of Two Senators from the same state
Yesterday we learned that Carper doesn’t want to delude citizens into thinking that what they want (the public option) is going to happen.
Today, we have a 1 term (half really) Senator with no ambition to run again (giving the seat to an R sadly) giving a much needed speech that we have been [...]
Sen Carper of Delaware against the public option
Not surprising at all.
Sen. Tom Carper (D-Del.) told HuffPost Tuesday he would “probably not” support the public option in a floor vote and that continuing to push for it is “deluding” people who still have hope.
“We don’t have the votes to pass the public option in the Senate. We tried very hard to find a [...]
Lab Coats = Credibility
I’m looking for the fine print that says this may cause cramping, headaches, nausea, vomiting, rectal bleeding and to call my doctor if my erection last longer than 4 hours.
but, it’s still no flight suit
In case you thought he worked for you…
You wont see this talked about at a few other Liberal sites…

It looks like Wall Street is out of Washington as Promised!
This is the journey we continue today. We remain the most prosperous, powerful nation on Earth. Our workers are no less productive than when this crisis began. Our minds are no less inventive, our goods and services no less needed than they were last week or last month or last year. Our capacity remains undiminished. [...]
How to spot an Obama apologist
They blame the Congress for the misdeeds and will give Obama credit for the successes.
1. Not only did Obama not campaign as an economic progressive, but actively reflected back to the Clinton/Rubin era as one of growth and sensible government that had much to aspire to.
I thought only republicans used Clinton in an argument?
2. He [...]
Donviti’s Must read Sunday edition, 12/6/09
There’s really only one person worth reading every Sunday and that is Frank Rich,
“Along its border,” of course, means across the border — a k a Pakistan. Obama never satisfactorily argued why more troops in Afghanistan, where his own administration puts the number of Qaeda operatives at roughly 100, will help vanquish the far more [...]
You say tomato I call bullshi%
Obama and Bush are making the same move and we know it:
“The New Way Forward in Iraq.” Mr. Obama’s speech carried the title “The Way Forward in Afghanistan and Pakistan.”
Still, the similarities in the surges are striking. The absolute number of additional troops is roughly the same: 30,000. The Iraq figure, 28,500 troops, was 7,000 [...]
