That’s why any plan I sign must include an insurance exchange: a one-stop shopping marketplace where you can compare the benefits, cost and track records of a variety of plans – including a public option to increase competition and keep insurance companies honest – and choose what’s best for your family

Failure to prosecute torturers when in position to do so is enough to make anyone a war criminal.
Doubling number of troops and other gunmen in Afghanistan along with assassinations.
etc., etc.

The simplicity of the statement is so sublime. Others can make lists of "well-intentioned" gestures, but this fact is simple and indisputable.
The guys a freakin' war criminal. And he's a liar to boot, and I've got this quirky attitude -- I HATE war criminals and liars.
Disclaimer: I got conned into voting for the sack of sh*t, and have regretted doing so from day #1.
Great post. So few words, yet each word hits home with the power of a sledge hammer, and I agree with each and every single word.

Oh, Peter, so true, so true.
Color me naive, but I cried on inauguration day in 2009. I had listened to Kennedy's inauguration speech on YouTube the night before, and I was entirely convinced that the Obama Administration was going to be Camelot II.
I was so sure he was going to prosecute Bush and Cheney and Rumsfeld. I was so sure he had the balls to do the right thing, and fix the economy. I was so sure that we'd all be back to work soon, the bankers would be made to pay for their evil manipulations, the hero would marry the girl in the last 5 minutes of the movie, and we'd all live happily ever after.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, like I said, painfully naive. And old enough to know better.
Two years later, and51 years old this month, still unemployed, can't even get hired at McDonalds, I'm a 99er, all my unemployment benefits are exhausted. I am eating only by the grace of Food Stamps, and grateful for that, but massively humiliated.
But hey, the banks and Wall Street brokerages are posting record profits and paying record bonuses! So, what's Bernanke's solution? Print more money and give it to the banks, that will fix the economy for sure!
O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave,
o'er the land of the free, and the home of the brave?
Uhh, no, Francis, it doesn't.
For those of you who are the blame the Republicans for stopping everything you have a problem. During the Obama administration he had a super majority in Congress so he didn't need a single Republican vote to do anything. So if it didn't happen you have nobody to blame except the Democrats and President Obama.
Can you you define supermajority? Can you supply the numbers to back up your contention that "During the Obama administration he had a super majority in Congress . . .?"
I expect no answers, but if one appears it will only add to the LONG and growing list of catnliar lies.
Lies all the time; every day and on any and all subjects.
