So President Obama kind of sucks, Huh?

73. Please SOMEBODY make it stop.

I get so tired of realizing that even in a supposedly highly educated nation like the USA, we have people who are victims of the Big Lie. Goebbels was right. give people a talking point; repeat it endlessly, and even despite tons of info otherwise, people will keep muttering their talking point. That is the only logical explanation I can come up with when reading this post of yours.

BTW, for what it is worth, here is a fact for you to ponder - on Monsanto, just last year close to one million people sent a petition regarding an aspect of Monsanto's proliferation of Gm foods without labelling. It was sent to Obama's FDA. (Yes, that is right - it is his FDA. He is President. He makes appointments. And all his many appointments to Agriculture Dept and to FDA have involved the promotion of Monsanto Death and Famine Foods Agents like Mike Taylor!)

And what did the officials do with those one million signatures on that petition? Since the petition had been sponsored? (Duh, most petitions are sponsored if they are attempting to get big numbers of people to support them.) The FDA ruled that this petition counted as ONE SIGNATURE.

Furthermore, and I find this shocking, I live in the most populated State in the Union. Yet despite this state having 37 million people, The WH Comments Line shuts down at 2Pm Calif time. It is a volunteer group - so it isn't like O. is saving any money doing this. It is just a slap in the face to people in one of the more truly progressive areas of the nation. That tells me and many more people how much Obama values our input.

Then there was the recent on e full week of protests regarding Keystone XL, and Obama's response to this was to be in Florida playing golf.

I have never experienced any Presidency that treats people like this. And if he had a "R" after his name, as many of us feel he deserves, he'd be friggin hearing about being impeached. But with that nice shiny blue "D" he can continue all the crap he and his appointees are doing to this nation, while we will soon begin to hear that if we want to make a difference, we need to wait for Hillary in 2016!

.
As for me, unless someone who has the intelligence, compassion, out spokenness and awareness of Elizabeth Warren, and unless someone like her gets to run on the Dem ticket in 2016, I will be staying home.
