(9,893 posts)Any presidential administration has policies on many, many subjects. There are so many fields that are covered by federal regulation that any one person is bound to have disagreements with something.
It was Will Rogers who said something like, "I'm a Democrat . . . I belong to no organized political party."
Well, at least that's what the poster given to me by a good friend says.
I take Rogers's comment to mean that the Dem party has an big, open tent where many voices are valued, unlike the small, closed tent of our opponents.
It's not surprising, then, in a historical sense that so many of us here on DU do have differences with the Obama administration positions or with Dem party positions on certain topics.
That's what makes discussions here on DU so much fun, outside the dreary election blackouts.
Like Willy T, I don't recall you, ProSense, ever having any disagreement whatsoever with the Obama administration, although I do admit that I had you on ignore for a few months. I don't intend to do that again. You're my source for the current administration position. Please don't tell me that I can't rely on you for that anymore.
