I took off my Obama stickers yesterday (http://www.democraticunderground.com/10022992047)
that's it. I am done thinking that anything between Government and "Hope" can do anything to get shit done and make good decisions for the whole of us.
Here we are into the SECOND term...
Gitmo is a disgrace...(what ever happened to the hunger strikers? don't ask)
troops still in Afghanistan (oh yeah, out by next year, riiiight)
drones still killing children in Pakistan
Wall St still in business
poverty on the rise (but, but JOBS!)
Climate Change unfettered... (howz that Pipeline comin?)
All these things that our POTUS said he would "do" or "fix" or whatever... and instead we are sitting here watching the drama play out over Patriot Act bullshit that was already in place and CONTINUED under this Administration...watching the gameplaying between these men in 'power' as the sequester continues without an end in sight. it's just a game to them, WE don't matter, unless they want campaign donations.
I've decided that at least the Rethugs are openly hostile and out to screw us and they don't hide it.
The Dems spew this hopey-changey preaching and smile and shake our hands...as they quietly slide the knife into our backs.
I am pissed and have no HOPE left for ANY of us
From now on, I'm just gonna work on my life and figuring out how to move past survival
No more believing in politics or people to change shit.
I'll make changes on the ground in my own world, and 'Rome' can burn.
:panic: :panic: :panic:

DimBulb, you DUmb shit. The idea that the State could, or would, "make good decisions for the whole of us" is the worst example of paternalist magical thinking I have ever seen. To hell with liberty, free will, human nature, individualism, and self-determination- right?
I can't even think of something funny to say. Just go away and die, you stupid ****.

He just begged for a tombstone. It says in the rules at DU that one must support the democrat party to post there.

Not necessarily:
But that does not mean that DU members are required to always be completely supportive of Democrats. During the ups-and-downs of politics and policy-making, it is perfectly normal to have mixed feelings about the Democratic officials we worked hard to help elect. When we are not in the heat of election season, members are permitted to post strong criticism or disappointment with our Democratic elected officials, or to express ambivalence about voting for them. In Democratic primaries, members may support whomever they choose. But when general election season begins, DU members must support Democratic nominees (EXCEPT in rare cases where were a non-Democrat is most likely to defeat the conservative alternative, or where there is no possibility of splitting the liberal vote and inadvertently throwing the election to the conservative alternative).

0bama did not just continue the eviiiiiiiil Boooooooooosh's policies, he put them on hyper drive.
I'll take notice when a DUchebag tells of removing a Kerry-04 sticker.

Exactly. Hi5

You voted for it the second time around. What did you expect was going to happen?

OK, so now will he get the "OBAMA" tattoo removed from his ass?

With the right tatoo artist, he could get that damned Obama emblem to look like a second a**hole.

Then his top would be confused.

You get what you voted for. So, I suggest you quit whining.

Hey, DUmmie, he's a Chicago democrat - of course he lied to you! Do you mean to tell me you expected better?
:lmao:
Oh, yeah

Well gee whiz, that's what you get for believing in unicorns.

If firstlight isn't a mole, he would make an excellent one.

Thanks for bringing this over, Ralph. I noticed it earlier today and just went over to see if the answers to the OP were along the same theme, and they are.
First, let's point out this primitive is going to (supposedly) let go of big gov't Dems.
From now on, I'm just gonna work on my life and figuring out how to move past survival...I'll make changes on the ground in my own world..."
Personal responsibility from someone who probably can't even spell it, much less put it into action? What do libs know about personal responsibility? Nothing, that's what. And several on the thread are agreeing with her. So we've got a bunch of kooks who have lived their whole life looking to DC to tell them how to live that are suddenly striking out on their own? Talk about a disaster waiting to happen. They'll never get off the dole, and even if they do for a brief amount of time it won't last. They're incapable.
Second, those opposed to her are saying the same mindless DNC scare tactics they've been told to repeat:
That's what the GOP hopes you and others will do... Do you think Mitt Romney would have made you happy?... Playing right into their hands... GOP wins...
These are the moochers who not only don't want their freebies to end, they want more, and they know who will butter the bread they possess that's been stolen from those of us who are the producers.
A board of the same type, really. Some realize they can't make it without the gov't to hold their hand, so they'll support the Dems no matter what. Some frustrated they're not getting all they want, and are claiming they'll strike out on their own, but they have no survival skills, and therefore no real choice but to crawl back at some point (if they go at all). Same type of individuals on the island, though.

There have been quite a few success stories of individuals who have gotten off the dole and made something of their lives. They lend credence to the phrase (by Plato) necessity is the mother of invention.

It doesn't say "OBAMA"...it says "OBAMA WAS HERE"

It's not certain, but odds are good when midterms get close if he isn't singing the praises of the democrat party, he and many others will get banned.

^More reason for a mole bootcamp.

I'm not out to screw you, DUmmie firelight. That idea disgusts me. I am out to hold a mirror up to you.

It doesn't say "OBAMA"...it says "{Michelle}OBAMA WAS HERE"
FIFY. :popcorn:

While I seriously doubt it, if our worlds ever coincide I will seriously dissuade you of that effort.
