Liberals: Obama Abandoned Us - Politico

[ChiciB1]

50. OHHHHH-Bama WAS NEVER A LIBERAL!!!

I think most liberals have always known this. Yes, we DO know it, however I've tried to be supportive and go along and tried not to be disruptive. Said I felt compromising was something we had to accept because we simply had no other alternative, what was on the other side was so much worse. I've had no illusions that Liberals are not in vogue in so many way, but felt my only option was to work for Democrats and try to have some "HOPE" that in time we might get some "CHANGE" however small. Can't say I was ever going to see my type of liberalism in my lifetime again, but DID think maybe new age Progressives would stand tall and fight.

I was so glad to see some Democrats standing up yesterday, but in the end certain Democrats simply ROLLED over AFTER OBAMA AND DIMON got to them!!

I'm full of adjectives that I could spout, but mostly I'm just DESPONDENT! I woke up this morning and my head still feels dizzy in some ways. Cobwebs upon cobwebs I'm finding hard to break through and running in circles. And the worst thing is some sort of FEAR that has me in a vice. On top of that, since I'm a Boomer I have grandkids who live close by and XMAS is upon me and we will have our usual dinner & celebration. Not that any of them are R's or overly religious but I'm in no mood for any type of celebration! But it's just selfish of me to ruin the pretty much FAUX Holiday for them. So now have to put on my fake face while my stomach churns and I want to crawl into a ball.

What will be will be, and right now I have no idea where to turn. At my age I have certain physical problems and am unable to get out and protest. I CAN post my grievances, make phone calls in protest but my heart just isn't in it right now.

There is ONE thing I WILL do today even though we don't have a bundle of money and it is that time of year and gifts are on the agenda. I'm going to donate to FREESPEECH.org. Can only give enough to send a bag of coal to Koch Brothers ($60.00) simply because it's doing SOMETHING!

So, maybe others here might consider doing the same, just to keep them on the air. They aren't getting the number of donations they need to meet their deadline so if anyone has a little to give them, maybe it will help keep them going.

I've NEVER made this type of request, but it's the best I can think of right now. So, got to FREESPEECH.org and check them out. Maybe I'm wrong about them too, OMG I can't imagine more depression, but I'm giving $60.00 today. They do have payment plans if you want to give more so this is where I'm at right now. So, from this "leftie: a few smilies that say very little about how I really feel!
