Bitter salty tears of liberal misery (schadenfreude alert)

Hey did you hear about the iconic African-American guy who plays golf, and whose relationship with the public is in a free-fall lately?

No, as a matter of fact I'm not talking about Tiger Woods.

You know, I've really been trying not to write an article every other week about all the things I don't like about Barack Obama.


But the little prick is making it very hard.

Like any good progressive, I've gone from admiration to hope to disappointment to anger when it comes to this president. Now I'm fast getting to rage.

How much rage? I find myself thinking that the thing I want most from the 2010 elections is for his party to get absolutely clobbered, even if that means a repeat of 1994. And that what I most want from 2012 is for him to be utterly humiliated, even if that means President Palin at the helm. That much rage.

Did this clown really say on national television that "I did not run for office to be helping out a bunch of you know, fat cat bankers on Wall Street"?!?!

Really, Barack? So, like, my question is: Then why the hell did you help out a bunch of fat cat bankers on Wall Street?!?! Why the hell did you surround yourself with nothing but Robert Rubin proteges in all the key economic positions in your government? Why did you allow them to open a Washington branch of Goldman Sachs in the West Wing? Why have your policies been tailored to helping Wall Street bankers, rather than the other 300 million of us, who just happen to be suffering badly right now?

Are you freakin' kidding me??? What's up with the passive president routine, anyhow, Fool? You hold the most powerful position in the world. Or maybe Rahm forgot to mention that to you. Or maybe the fat cat bankers don't actually let do that whole decision-making thing often enough that it would actually matter...

But, really, are you going to spend the next three interminable years perfecting your whiney victim persona? I don't really think I could bear that. Hearing you complain about how rough it all is, when you have vastly more power than any of us to fix it? Please. Not that. ...

Enjoy!

Yeah.  He also said he wasn't "just going to throw money at the problem".  Meanwhile, after throwing money at the probelm, the federal deficit is four times larger than the year that preceeded it and not a damn thing has been accomplished.

Well, they installed "Dear Leader" so they could get "communism" and now they don't like it......... :rotf: :tongue:

Hey, communist leaders always look out for the ones that put them in power.....until they kill them.

Normally, in fact, the Kingmakers are the first to go, since the man on the throne is done with them and he sure doesn't want them trying again.

David Michael Green is a professor of political science at Hofstra University in New York.

What did the professor expect? 0 is just like him, like all "progressives", he doesn't actually do anything. The professor is just lucky he was able to procure employment blathering his BS to impressionable and empty young minds. As for 0, it was painfully obvious that he didn't have a clue, nor know where to look for one. Expecting this guy with no experience in anything, other than grift, to produce anything but grift was sheer insanity.

It's time to strip the Obama sticker off my car. Obama's escalation in Afghanistan is the last in a string of disappointments. His flip-flopping acceptance of the military coup in Honduras has squandered the trust of Latin America. His Wall Street bailout leaves the poor, the unemployed, minorities and college students on their own. And now comes the Afghanistan-Pakistan decision to escalate the stalemate, which risks his domestic agenda, his Democratic base, and possibly even his presidency...

While amusing, the sad part is that so much damage will be done that it will be no laughing matter and another election will not help the situation I am afraid.
