Discouraged - I was thinking today - they got to the WH started living the high life and |
|
forgot about us - flying off to here and there - congress continues with their benefits, high salaries and over paid extras, benefits for life while the rest of us pay for all of these government employees to have all of this - incredible - the only thing they want the government to control is our bodies while making sure those who are not teabaggers, die - really a sucky end result to all of Dean's work - this will not come again - it is over - they are over - turn it over to the crazy right wingers who want to destroy the world so they can rapture - crap

1. You really think the last 8 years were better? |
|
I'm not happy with the current system but I sure as hell don't want the Bush, McCain, Palin cohorts. I'll vote for the lesser of two evils always!

3. Thats cool that you vote for the lesser of two evils |
|
but there is a dimension of actually *accomplishing* things to politics, right? And for that, we need to be discussing other ideas than voting

|
unhappy with the shysters we have in there now who said one thing and gave us another
I would rather they not pass anything if it is not single payer or a public option - I do not intend to buy insurance from shysters who like the bankers and wall street go home with all the 'marbles' - this just sucks - I am allowed to rant- I will vote out any dem who did not vote for this and if they don't put up a second candidate in the primary you can kiss the dem goodbye - we have to get them out so we can get someone in who cares about people and if that means putting up with some idiot at a state level so be it - they have taken it all of them and nothing for the good of the whole and the fabricators of fiction have won again - a minority party beats the majority - what chance do we have - we are paying more taxes than ever - just now it is local, in tolls, and gas, and food, electric, gas, travel, and college that once was controlled and regulated - when will it end

5. (shrug) As long as so many DUers will believe anything they see.... |
|
and as long as so many DUers are so against Obama, this will keep happening.
The problem is ours - they're just taking advantage of it.

8. suck an egg - I am a dem and have been for many years and when |
|
I see the promises of campaigns go out the window with people like Rahm Emmanuel and special deals with the health care industry - the back room dealing sucks - I saw Kennedy killed and Martin Luther King and Bobby Kennedy - this has been our first hope since then and it is being thrown away - I have been making nice and hoping beyond hope that they would do the right thing - but the other side got hold of the message and controlled it on TV and with their town hall anger (when they are on medicare) - just sucks , sucks sucks

7. Yeah, being the first black dude to sit in the Oval Office |
|
and have 30,000,000 death threats from racist whackjobs a day on you, your family, your staff, the families of your staff, and people who supported you is REAL cushy.
Not to mention the fact that he walked into the worst situation a newly-minted President's inherited since FDR, a bitchy media that gets its undies in a bunch every time he so much as shits while leaning the wrong way on the pot, an opposition that has gone completely off the deep end and forfeited their sanity for the sake of the teabagger crowd, and a party that is deeply fragmented by itself.
Yeah, you're right. Best goddamn job in the fucking world.

12. a nancy grace, glen beck, hannity, rove would tear my life apart |
|
they kill people with their words - Nancy grace is responsible for that ducker woman's death in my opinion and Reilly for the abortion doctor - they are all nuts - the insane - and I know someone who got a 4.0 for her whole graduate degree and she believes this crap - so how do you hope - the supposedly smart are even stupid

13. Well, gee, and here I, too, thought that electing... |
|
Obama and a bunch of Democrats in congress was going to solve every single problem in the whole country.
Maybe even the whole wide world. Or even the galaxy.
Might as well go out and kill myself right now, since this is as good as it will ever get.
(It's all downhill from here. Goodbye cruel world!)

14. Go ahead and unrecommend - this was just my rant about what is |
|
going on - I see ten thousand threads on palin or some other rw #@$@#$@# and they are voted up but getting out there and getting angry is not allowed - the teabaggers got angry and they have no reason or facts - they want everyone to die - so when people say why isn't anyone in the street protesting like during the 60's this is why - everyone thinks we should sit back and play nice and keep hoping the dem congress will do something for the people - well it didn't happen when they got some control while under bush and it looks like it still isn't happening - yes it sucks
