If the only way we can win Reelection is by playing out of the Republican playbook
then this is one of the saddest eras in the history of the Democratic Party.

1. That's What People Said About Bill Clinton So If You Want To Be Consistemt You Need To Lambaste Him
"Bill Clinton was the best Republican president we ever had."

3. Barack Obama is President, not Bill Clinton, or were you fooled the other day
when they both embarrassed our Party with that silly stunt?

8. I'm Too Tired To Defend Bill
But you can't criticize Obama for embracing Repug policies while exonerating Bill...

I also think it's much more complex...

9. Clinton Did Welfare Deform, DOMA, NAFTA, And Repealed Glass-Steagal
Edited on Mon Dec-13-10 07:35 PM by DemocratSinceBirth
According to DUERS those were Republican acts. I'd submit the truth is much more complex... Same as with Obama...

11. Hey there!
It's good to see you...it's been a longgggg time.

Boy, have things gone from bad to worse in a few short years. I never would have believed Obama would actually succeed in validating J.W. idiot's policies, but there you have it!

Change has become more of the same; Hope has become hopelessness; and "yes we can" has become "yes we caved."............so sad........

If this economy/jobs don't improve, he will be a one hit wonder.

Will there be a challenger.......time will tell................

Have a nice holiday and a happy, healthy new year!
