Here's the thing Wil and deathboy and JazX, etc..
To those of us on the *cough* far left who are utterly disappointed by Obama, we are disappointed because Obama has turned out to be a center right apologist with flowery hippie rhetoric.
He has continued Bush's wars. He hasn't rolled back any of the Executive Branch legal power grabs. He has kept torture hidden. He has continued Bush's
So when you claim he's some rabid communist in wolfs clothing..um where? He's continued ALL of Bush's policies with the exception of Healthcare. And even that he hasn't turned it over to government control, only given federal mandates to private industry - which was like Bush turned over aspects of war fighting to private companies like Blackwater, etc. Same principle - privatize what was public.
So I ask you, if all these things are so vile to your sensibilities, where were you during 2000-2009? Where was your anger? If it wasn't expressed on this forum, surely you were venting on some other forum about these very same policies that Bush was pursuing - bad war policy, handing out money to banks, etc. I mean if these are the things that so enrage you to get involved in politics then where was your anger before?
Fuck knows I am mad at Obama for the EXACT same reasons I was disgusted with Bush. I've been angry since 2000.
Please send links to earlier rants and rages against Bush from other forums or blogs.
Oh wait. I bet their are none. Because you really aren't "independent" voters suddenly "outraged". You are dumb downed rascist rightwing douchetard Republicans who are so fucking dumb you can't even see how dumb you are..
Until you send me links to your rage against federal power grabs and illegal wars and abuses of executive power in earlier administrations I will believe you are the shallow political opportunist scumsuckers you obviously are.
