In reply to the discussion: So now the talking point is that Obama destroyed chained CPI with his masterful brinksmanship. [View all]sabrina 1

It's hard to keep up with who this president is.
When there is so much confusion over where someone actually stands on a principle, something is wrong, isn't it?
When someone's words are not clear, when they contradict their actions, we have a problem.
When everyone and their mother is struggling to figure out whether what he says or what he does is the real Obama, something is wrong.
Frankly I'm not really interested any more.
My rule is 'watch what they do', 'watch what they vote for'. This president told us he would never vote for the FISA Bill, then he did. Who was he trying to fool then? That NEARLY lost him my support but I put it aside since we could not withstand another four years of Republicans.
It's simple, we don't have a personal relationship with politicians. The only way we can judge them is to watch their actions.
Now it's time to move forward and start planning how to remove the Third Way Party from our OWN party and replace them with real Progressive Democrats. I am working with millions of other Democrats to start finding OUR OWN candidates for the primaries in 2014.
I'm done trying to figure out some politician's mind processes, it's not important. I am ready for action now.
