Our Right Wing President
It amazes me the hatred that the right wing has towards our President. He is a centrist at best with right leanings. Nixon was a centrist with left leanings.
It shows just how far right the extreme have gone to not see this.
I would love to see just one thing that he has done that even appears socialist. The health care reform bill doesn’t even come close. It would not have been passed by either the House or the Senate without backing by Republicans. It leaves the insurance companies in charge of our health care.
Bulls eye! With a probability of circular error zero by zero!!
It is inexplicable that our members here on the right are not dancing in the streets with joyous posters and flags of Barack Obama.
He introduced and ramrodded the Health Care Portability and Affordability Act that will force every man, woman and child to buy health insurance. This is a huge, huge, HUGE boon to the health insurance industry—just another subsidy for the already mega wealthy medical establishment.
He gave Trillions to our financial, Mortgage, Insurance, and oil exploration industries. Some of it was paid back, but most of it has not. Hey, the nice thing is that we own one third of GM and they just hit their third straight profitable quarter (Where is MY dividend??)
He just got bullied and schooled by a small minority sub class of the republican party and will be cutting our social programs while the weLTHY WILL SACRIFICE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!! (he wasn’t schooled or bullied—he just let it happen while he could have screwed them all and pencil whipped the debt ceiling under presidential powers granted by our constitution…
I hope someone runs against this republican in democrats clothing.
I see what you mean, John—these GOP folks should be praising Obama big time!
If you think for one second Obama is a centrist LEANING to the right you must be wearing blinders. I have to give this “thought” (no names) to some of my friends on Gather. This is amusing!!! We need a joke or two. lol M. ana.
It is funny, how the Democrats put the Republicans ideals to use in the Health Care bill. Yet, the Republicans hates the bill…
I’m about as Liberal as you can get on most things and I know that Obama is not even within shouting distance. It’s hard for them to see it with their heads up their ass!!!
But, but, our president is a communist who wants America to be Islamic under Sharia laws… The hard right republicans said so.
Yep
Me, I vote for the best possible candidate in the Democratic primaries. and then vote against the Republican in the general.
I can’t believe that anyone intentionally votes for a party whose stated goals is No Government. Dismantling Social Safety Nets, votes against Bridges and Roads, Doesn’t want Clean Air or Water. WTF is wrong with people.
And Fiscally conservative my ass. Republicans spent the nation into bankruptcy. Republicans always spend more than democrats, because their big business backers consider the US Treasury as something to be plundered. Republican have never seen a Gov’t Contractor they didn’t like. Money to the wealthy.
Yep, Stupid is as stupid does.
As we approach the Winter Solstice of 2012, and the Earth is beginning its first Magnetic pole flip in some 780, 000 years, everybody is becoming more and more of what they really are inside. There simply is no way of hiding it anymore. Enlightened people are becoming more Enlightened, barbaric people are becoming more barbaric, and the average human being is looking at all this and going, “WTF?”, but they are also thinking.
The right wingers are being fed a lot of propaganda prepared for them by the very “Illuminati” that they believe they oppose. So they are advocating policies which would cut their own throats, and they are putting these beliefs ahead of easily ascertainable facts. It is very much like they are living in some sort of crazy parallel world. How can you reason with that? Their idea of freedom is a state of Corporate Feudalism with a Fundamentalist Theocracy
It’s clear to see that most of them don’t understand the labels that they are using. If I had a dollar for every time I saw someone use the term “Marxist Socialist”…
And then we’ve got the folks that blatantly lie and make up things in order to spread right wing propaganda and talking points. It’s funny when they refuse to supply verifiable citations to back up their wild accusations. All we get is “Well, duh! Everybody knows it’s true!” I guess facts don’t matter when a lie is REALLY REALLY felt to be true.
When verifiable facts are routinely dismissed as having “liberal bias”, I think it’s safe to say they don’t care about the truth. Only party line dogma.
It is comforting though to be told over and over that facts are liberally biased. What a compliment! 😉
