Vote down job stimulus but vote yes on trade agreements with Colombia, Panama and South Korea
I guess all of the campaigning by the President to help the unemployed is simply going overseas......what pure horseshit. Outmaneuvered by a drunk and a punk and a turtle (Boner and CANTor and McDonald)at every turn, but it's OK to attack the sellers of medical marijuana.


This Administration will go down as one of the weakest in history. Oh, and when the troops go in to bust up Occupy Wall Street, who is going to be the front man for the Administration because the President doesn't stand with the 99% and needs someone to do the bidding of the 1%.

1. I find it funny that we only sign free trade agreements with right-wing governments in Latin America
I mean, I haven't seen any proposals to the same effect for our neighbors in Venezuela, Bolivia, or Brazil. It's a load of horseshit. In the past, such agreements were nothing but cover stories for cross-border labor arbitrage.

2. The President's happy- he LOVES him some free trade!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkWEwwLBuvs">Unless it's 2008 and he's running for President Bonus: He also talks about ending the Bush Tax Cuts!

Man, 2008 was a great year for gettin' lied to, wasn't it?

3. Primary Obama was the man who gave us hope.
Who is that man serving as President and what did he do with Primary Obama?

6. Once we finally know the rules this will make perfect sense
Anyone still have any doubts that what the rich want is what they get?

Hopefully the 99% are making up a set of new rules and maybe someday we'll even implement them. Right now though? Not.
