(1,925 posts)I remember Watergate... & I think we are at Watergate level of financial corruption... however Citizens United has legalized it.
I do feel that this is a tipping point election... because there are simply no morals on the other side... at all.
And I wonder how much progressive legislation would have passed the Senate even with the Democratic "60 vote majority" the MSM imprinted on our minds... because that presumed Joe Lieberman, preferred running mate of John McCain voted with the Democrats.
Maybe Obama should not have pushed for Health Care first... but no one else was able to do it.
Sanjay Gupta recently was interviewed on Canadian tv and he commented about the Canadian Health Care system where people get to Drs and get treatment... and don't have to do without treatment because they can't afford it. (I remember Gupta tearing into Michael Moore re his health care documentary and saying that MM lied... which was wrong IIRC)
I spent 4 months in s Florida, made some good friends... lovely caring ladies.. and it took about three months before they felt safe enough with me to fully expose their complete and horrifying hatred of darker people... i felt sick...
so no votes there...
Pres Obama is an honorable man... and to replace him with Romney who will do anything, say anything to get elected... Essentially I see an Emperor Romney, if elected... or RomneyCheney if elected.
If intelligent people decide to sit this election out... it is at their peril because we can be sure that every bigot, every mind twisted Fox viewer and ice cream social old folks... will line up in the millions to vote against what is best for them.
Bloody hell............ a vote for Obama.............. is a vote for Seamus........... so if he can't bring himself to vote for Obama.... have him vote for Seamus this election.
