9. He knows exactly how you feel.
The White House/D.C. has an internet connection.
And scouring internet drones.
And tea leaf readers.
And customer service reps.
And pretty much anything they could want.

10. If you're drawing a line there...you're late to party.
Statement of Fact: If a D president has to be petitioned to not cut the MC's...it's pointless.

6. I'll ignore that along with all the other online petitions ever created
I really am not sure if they ever serve any function in any way.

However, I'm always happy to sign an actual real-life petition.

7. URGENT -- Donor to Obama: "no more dollars from me"
URGENT -- Donor to Obama: "no more dollars from me"

Of course, the President has said nothing about cutting Medicare and Medicaid.

27. It's all just sooooo dramatic.
If the President didn't give a speech people would be screaming he's not communicating. When he does they want to write the speech and pan him before it happens.

35. This was created to influence his position.
The advisors he has are for "reform".

11. I used to think Obama was some kind of right-winger in disguise.
Edited on Tue Apr-12-11 04:58 PM by Marr
But you know, over the last few months I've come to change my mind. I think he's just a modern executive. The modern executive doesn't give a shit about what the company produces, how the people employed there are doing, what broader effects his company is having on the world... none of that matters. He wants to get in, get his, and get out-- and that's it. If he wrecks the place in the process, who cares. He'll squeeze every bit of benefit he can from the place before he deploys that golden parachute.

This sort of action is the only thing he could listen to, and even then, only if it threatens his shots at reelection (assuming he cares to do another term instead of going straight to the corporate pay-off circuit).

13. Good. I hope they print this out and send it to the Oval Office.
I'm sick of him giving into the Republicans and throwing his supporters under the bus in the name of bi-partisanship.

29. I suggest that Obama might find a new
advisor(s), cuz the one he has not is "not all that into us".
I'm just saying.
