(17,301 posts)He never said he was a moderate RepubliCON when he was campaigning. He sure talked like a liberal and then he morphed into a smart, good looking RepliCON. But it's Not All his fault, it's Not All any one person's fault.
The capitalist system makes it easier to stomp on and crush the middle class and poor then to help them. The same people who fill the campaign coffers of RepubliCON pacs also fill the campaign coffers of Democratic pacs. But if you don't have a pac? You get what you pay for and Some very rich people paid for Obama to do what he has done.
He has managed to turn off the Democratic base. I think that was his job. Remember when his chief of staff was calling the base names? Remeber when he extended the bush tax give aways to the uber rich? All he had to do was Nothing and they could have gone away. His whole purpose was to disenhearten and turn off the liberal voter. He did his job wll. Now, when he passes the TPP he'll have put a stake through one of the core groups that support Democratic leaders - Unions.
