Thank You Mr. President for a great two years.

[Perky]

In some respects it was an agonizing two years. But by God you got a helluva lot done

But the point is a good one.

Obama pledges more concessions to business at White House summit

By Barry Grey

16 December 2010

At a five-hour summit with top corporate executives on Wednesday, President Obama signaled his readiness to slash corporate income tax rates, weaken business regulations, cut social spending, and drive up US exports at the expense of the wages and conditions of American workers.

http://www.wsws.org/articles/2010/dec2010/obam-d16.shtml

That's no "great" Democrat, though it sounds like a pretty-good Republican.

9. Laelth you are a kill joy

Why are you trying to throw cold water on the START treaty, repeal of
DADT, and the bi-partisan TAX bill?

So What if the START treaty will not find jobs for the unemployed?
So what if the jobs in the development of defensive ballistic weapons are gone?
So what if a single GLB has not been refused in joining the military? Don't
you see now they can be open about it with pride?
So what if the 99'ers will be thrown out of their homes, others still unemployed
will keep the checks coming. You gotta look at the silver lining, not the dark cloud.

And the TAX bill....so what if the filthy rich can keep Billions, at least
my tax bracket will stay at 10% and not rocket back up to 15%. Obama himself
said that giving the filthy rich more money will grow the economy! Yes, he is
now convinced supply side is the way to go. So what if 9.8% are still on
unemployment, and another 10-15% have given up looking or are working at McDonald's.
Still 75% are still working! Look at the cup half full :yourock: :toast:

So what if your health insurance did not drop? (Mine just went up 30%).
But look at the positive side, no one can be refused that expensive insurance!

Have a wonderful holidays man....:yourock:

11. There are no "great" Dems in the eyes of the International Committee of the Fourth International

People like Leon Trotsky qualify as "great".

10. Kick but no rec (too late)

The bitter tears in this thread are going to go great with my Christmas fruitcake. ;)
