(62,325 posts)there were Hitler posters, from the left and we laughed because we hated his drone program.
And 'bend over for Republicans'. His spokesperson at the WH, Carney explained him putting SS on the table this way 'The Republicans asked him to do it'!!!! Is that bending over or not? We are talking about SS here. And we are talking about a Democrat offering to cut benefits because 'The Republicans asked him to do it'! I have more examples, some he provided himself and was quite proud of his catering to them.
Moving on: 'civil rights denying' yes, there is pretty long list of back-tracking on Civil Rights issues starting with the grotesque NDDA. Don't get me started.
And this: new-boss-same-as-the-old-boss who didn't even wait a decent six months after his re-election to put Social Security on the table. Was it six months? I do remember being told to wait and see before getting 'hysterical' as he had not yet 'put it in the budget'. That was about two months ago, it's April, so yes, that is true. We were right, we expect this of him now.
Offshore drilling. Remember that? How long into his term was it before he lifted that 30 year ban?
That is not nasty, it is FACT. Unless you can show that none of it is true.
People are ANGRY. Social Security?? I doubt he is surprised, he surely knew the reaction he would get to this. We've been told he enjoys getting 'the left' angry. It gives him creds with Republicans, they say. James Carville more or less confirmed that also.
Nasty is falsely accusing someone of hating this president because they refuse to remain silent over issues like offering SS cuts to Republicans. I am a critic of many of this president's policies, I like HIM, I despise some of his policies because they are Republican policies, George Bush policies.
