I wish more talkers would review the Dem gains like Rachel did, |
|
and do it a lot more often! To open her show tonight Rachel again went down the list of accomplishm ents the Dems have gotten over the last 2 years, and explained that they were landmark changes that all affect our lives. Unfortunately, Pubbies hate change and refer to Obama & the Dems as evil, socialist, & Hitler like, and Progressives al think Obama & the Dems didnt do enough! Rachel even had an historian on who confirmed that history will show that Obama was one of the mot accomplished Presidents, similar to LBJ & FDR. Unfortunately today's American can't seem to see it!

1. That would require them to do some actually reporting. They tend to take the Republican claims at |
|
face value and just repeat them. As far as I can tell Maddow is about the only person who has a news show that does research and reports.

2. 'Today's American' can't see it because it 's just not presented, media-wise.. |
|
We here are among the fortunate few, who do see and know.
(Can't explain the complaining 'progs.')

3. Presidents with vision are better for the country than |
|
any short-term gains or losses in midterms. We'll survive no matter what, and be a better country for it. Our side might have to wait for what we want, but progress is inevitable.

4. Most left pundits don't do that for Obama. |
|
"Holding his feet to the fire" is more fun that admitting a victory now and then. It's a shame that more can't do both like Rachel does.

5. For the record American liberals didn't think |
|
FDR or LBJ went far enough, and contemporaries could not see it either.
