President Obama's victory really hit many nerves. Obstruction by a thousand cuts?
It has been breathtaking to see the rich/highly privileged, the religious hypocrites, the ignorant, the main stream media, the "only one thing can be done at a time" linear thinkers, the right wing talk radio loonies, and all but three Republics in the Senate and House...opening a multi-front attack on anything and everything our President is trying to accomplish. I've never seen so many people care so little for the country, for people that are struggling - having power is all for some, and for the rest I am sure there are elements of racism and envy. I am so utterly disgusted.

1. The good news is that their response makes it very clear to voters...
...who is on their side ~ it will pay off (again) in 2010. President Obama is smart enough not to fret about it.

3. I think a 'fraction' of the problem may also be that the President
is throwing so much at them at one time, THEY CAN'T KEEP UP! So, they just say, 'FUCK IT! WE DON'T LIKE ANYTHING!!' LOL!

you know they move their lips when they read. :rofl:

5. "I've never seen so many people care so little for the country"
Wow. That's so true. I think we saw it during the * years but might not have recognized it as so self-serving. Now it's very obvious, and oh so sad.
