I expect a politician to care about me and my country, I don't want to be sent to the back of the bus because I have a different opinion. I'm seeing a pattern that goes all the way to the top of your group. >> I know right, they should give him hell, instead they let him pass >> most everything. > > I'm thinking you're referring to health care reform, and if so, the > PBS special I saw made it look anything but easy.

I'm referring to everything that was passed, the GOP only fought like two items, the rest they just complained and let pass.They should have fought harder but they're wimps. They don't have the balls the dems have to put up a fight. If only I liked what the dems were fighting for. As for healthcare, everyday is another horror story. Today they're talking about no-bid contracts for insurance companies in West Virginia. Just awesome. > Er, I guess that was factcheck?

No way, Obama would still be hostile to corps so I would estimate if there was no crisis when Obama took over we'd have 7-8% unemployment. > Damn economics be easy! You seem to know all the answers, or at least trust that a temp law lecturer has all the answers.

Out of control spending, hostility towards corporations, hostility towards America.
