This place in many ways has gone off the deep end. RE: Used car salesman [View all]

I am going to break a rule. I don't care if this post gets hidden. This needs to be said.

I checked in here from time to time during the Bush years. DU was mainstream progressive blog along the lines of Daily Kos. Since Obama was elected everything changed.

You can hardly come here without people bashing the President. Calling him a sellout for not getting a single payer system for healthcare (even though he never said he would do it on the campaign) Now the law is going into effect, a contest topic here is how the president is a sellout on healthcare. The fact the millions have access to care that they didn't have before doesn't seem to matter to ideological purists.


On Russia and Crimea. People are calling the President a hypocrite because of the Iraq war. The fact the President opposed the war is irrelevant.

To use the words of a frequent poster here the President is a POS used car salesman.

With "friends" like these who needs enemies.
