1. K & R sad ! I'm trying my best to put into words my disgust without totally disrespecting the Pres.

This crap is hard to take!

[eagertolearn]

2. Yes and I'm hoping that he is right about going so far that it is embarrasing

and then the repugs say no still and then he can do what is the best decision for all Americans...a single payer option like medicare for all.

3. So tell us what the Democrats got in this bill

that makes it worth anything!

We already knew these proposals were in the bill - we just didn't know they were in the Republican platform....

Tell us what's in the bill for the public!

[GOTV]

4. Why doesn't Obama see this? When he speaks, he sounds smart, but when he acts ...

... not so much.

5. His salesmanship worked so well during the campaign

must be very troubling for him that the Republicans don't want to give a single vote.

Imagine how his weak position looks on other issues like banking regulation and war. He seems to be getting steamrolled and Cheney and Bush gave him so much power if he would only use it.

Why is he trying to frustrate us so, seems like he is going out of his way. Anyone who doesn't know the other side isn't even in the game hasn't been paying attention. The President has so many better things to do than hold hands with Republicans.

Our President is empowering Republican efforts to frustrate change and progress at the most basic level. While the President and the Republican party play games, this country is hurting and there is only so much time in a year to waste.
