all I am saying, is why should we believe anything that they say. They are lying weasels, that will do and say anything to make this President fail. So why are we listening.

The OP said:

If these monsters are suddenly praising Obama, he must really be telling them what they want to hear.

And if he's telling them what they want to hear, he's willing to give them what they want.


Which means those of us dependent on Social Security and Medicare are going to be screwed. Because these monsters are NOT going to be satisfied with any action that doesn't screw us.


So the OP is saying that the President is caving, giving up everything to the GOP and betraying all of America? I am a little confused.
