One grownup in a kindergarten
Obama's approval ratings will just go higher now. People see that all they have is one serious man, and around him bunch of crazies from all sides.

1. Good metaphor.
Hope you're right about the approval rating. We'll see how large the elite left really is.

8. He didn't save over 22,000 lives this year which he could
have with a single payer insurance plan. Obama cares only for the rich. He proved it today.

17. A) Single-payer has no chance in hell of passing.
B) 30 MILLION people will now get health coverage that didn't previously have it.

Yes, I know you'll trot out the "It's just a gift for the insurance companies" canard, but last I checked, health insurance is a necessity in our current system.

And if Obama only cares for the rich, explain the unemployment extension and middle-class tax cuts. Come on, I'm waiting.

11. It was not crazy to hope for Obama to honor one of his main campaign promises
Do not equate those of us who are upset about that failure with the other side.

Thank you.

12. He's tops!
After all, he froze federal salaries because he was concerned about the deficit. Now he's for tax cuts for millionaires and billionaires that last twice as long as the extended unemployment benefits - and add a trillion to the deficit.

We are SO lucky to have him on our side (even though we don't deserve him)!!11!!:woohoo:

13. Rather disparraging. Implying everyone is a spoiled bratty child.
