In reply to the discussion: Obama Did It For the Money by Robert Scheer [View all]okaawhatever
(9,567 posts)everyone else elected to support him. Obama isn't losing some of these battles because he's Obama, he's losing because the fight has been long and hard and many Americans have given up until the next election. Hello people. He's not the problem, we the democrats are. The repubs are working every day, on the chat boards, very very politically active in everything. We are laying down. Penny will fight fire with fire. She's exactly what we need. We won't be able to change anything until we have a majority and can get the judges appointed, the programs that will scale back the power of the right, the power of the corporations. You know the expression do you wanna be happy or you wanna be right? We need to be happy and then we can be right. I don't know what the truth is for Penny, but she probably didn't do anything worse than anyone else in that mess and all those people are on wall street earning billions and funding the right. All the bankers who were involved in this mess did the same thing, while the others were backing republican candidates whe was backing a democrat. If she truly were like the rest of them she'd have never backed Obama. So let her do her job, I'm going to mine, and I hope you'll do yours.
The last paragraph makes me highly suspect of it's accuracy. But that's just me.
