97. Yes, it's bullshit. It's B.S. Corporate Theater, a middle finger in the face of every American,

while the Third Way and the Republicans laugh all the way to the bank.

This OP hit a deep nerve, as you can tell by the BOG swarm above working desperately to divert to any topic other than the actual content of the OP.

This corporate Trojan horse presidency is STILL systematically working to shove TPP down our throats and empower corporations to exploit millions more of us. The speech promised unprecedented corporate domination, more bloody war for profit, continued evisceration of our fundamental freedoms...all wrapped up in pretty progressive rhetoric that the president doesn't have to worry about fulfilling, because the DCCC "Accept Doom" midterm strategy worked, and corporate Republicans now have majorities. What a scam. What a perfect example of what corporate government give us: Shiny lies and advertisements designed to mask an agenda that is dismantling democracy itself.

Nothing is more important than exposing Third Way infiltration, predation, and lies in our party. Nothing is more important than making sure that Hillary or another Third Way corporatist in a Democrat suit is not shoved down our throats as the Democratic nominee in 2016.

This country cannot survive four more years of pretty progressive lies wrapped around a real agenda of TPP, endless war for profit, and police state dismantling of our Bill of Rights.
