to Barack Obama (re: the tPP)

I have been one of your defenders, and I do not apologize for that. If nothing else, voting for you was the only way to keep Mitt and McCain from every getting near the Oval Office. There had to be ZERO chance of that. I do not regret picking you over Hillary, because she is was and will be firmly to your right, especially on the ultimate domestic and economic issue, war.

Still, seeing you attack Liz and pick this fight to ride out your reign is tragic. It shows you carrying water for the same bastards that, when Hillary gets in, will stab you in the back in true Clinton fashion. They will try to act like Hillary had nothing to do with this, and make you fast track it so that SHE does not have to offer an opinion, much less divulge how much of her handiwork is in it. You are being played for a patsy, and like clockwork, the sheep will say "Hillary wouldna ever ever did dis because she iz a reall Librul." Expect Maureen Dowd to write that articles after she and Hill become BFFs again.

You did some good things as president. The fact we have Obamacare and GM will always be your moment in history. Sadly, you could have grabbed the LGBT marriage part if you did not run from it before you evolved. However, history will mark your flaw as being that you sold yourself as being the alternative to the Clinton destruction of liberalism, but instead, served as it's life support, despite the fact that most of us wanted to pull the plug on it, or at least move beyond it back to the liberalism we wanted and needed.

You carried Hillary's water Obama, and because of that neither you nor she will "evolve" to become the capital L liberals we badly need. Granted, Hillary is doomed too, because even when she wins the Koch Bordello in congress will remind people that corporations have devoured democracy whole. All that I can hope for is, as China makes it's own headlong rush to fake left full capitalist fascism faux empire, enough of us are left to rebuild.

I will leave this line for both you, bill and Hill, and the rest of the fake center, as it fits. Do not fear DU policy squad, I will vote for Hillary in the general, but I have no illusions about my vote being anything but a means to keep the GOP out. My solace will be seeing the faces of people going "She was going to be a liberal, what happened?"

And no one maintains neutrality like the FAKE center.

In fact, he didn't mention her name, he said there were some dishonest things being said about the TPP.

I remember the same scenario with the ACA so I'm going to wait and see instead of jumping on the vitriol bandwagon against Obama.

Many here seemed to have gotten their cue from the 5 time re-posted OP that said the president called Warren dishonest.
