WTF is wrong with Democrats that want to cut Social Security and/or Medicare?

[Autumn]

215. Why do I think the US is so far behind on this basic human right? Simple, our politicians

both republican and fake dems. They no longer represent the people. The corporations own them. The people want health care. Polls show that time and time again.

Now here's what I think. What you consider to be hammering on Obama is not hammering on Obama. Our politicians campaign for President. They embrace a platform, be it republican or the Democratic Platform. That is a contract with the voters that vote for them. We had 8 fucking long dark years of a fucking conservative idiot shredding our constitution and economy and our Countries status. Even republicans were sick of it. Someone like Obama comes along, sounds like a fucking awesome liberal who knows the problems of the last 8 years and says all the right things. Gets elected and moves to the middle and lets the fucking republicans frame everything and seeks the holy grail of bipartisanship, with the same fucking assholes that slap him in the face every chance they get.

He reaches across the aisle to the same fucking assholes who put us into this mess. They defined the stimulus, the budget woes (which the pukes created) they defined healthcare, you do know Obamas plan was Romneys plan? We have a bloated military budget which seems to be a sacred cow to both parties in government. We have tax breaks for the wealthy courtesy of Bush and Obama in his crappy deal to give unemployment to some people, no help at all to the ones who were out and gave no extension to those about to run out. And both parties including Obama go on talking about budget cuts that harm the least among us.

Someone like Obama comes along and we Democrats and some republicans pinned our hope on him. This was THE MAN who could pull us out of the republican mess This was the man to give us health care reform. This was the man to do away with the nightmare policies of Bush. I got to talk to him. I shook his hand and he looked me in the eye and said we were going to get health care reform .
Yeah , there is disappointment. I don't think I hammer him. But he owes me, I voted for him. I'm an old Democrat. I'm a Liberal and our Democratic leaders seem to be ashamed of that word. Not me. I'm proud of it.
