What to do ?
Oh no ! Obama is mad and is not going to take it any more. He has decided it is time to fight the Republicans. There's a big difference between talking big shots and taking big shots. Nearly 3 years into Obama, Goldman Sachs still runs the economy, private health insurance rates are rising fast, wealth inequality continues to grow, the crippling W tax cuts are still 100% in force, he has not even tried to do anything about the "culture of lobbying in DC" that he brayed about in 2008,.inflation is almost nonexistent yet Obama accepts deficit hysteria as Job #1, interest on bonds is extremely low, indicating that investors consider the US Gov an extremely safe investment, but Obama accepts REPUB tripe about "investor uncertainty", Obama let his Defense Sec Robert Gates fire off a letter to the Pentagon promising that any more cuts to defense spending would be "unacceptable" (as if there have actually been any defense cuts) , he's OK with tampering with beloved Soc Sec and Medicare in exchange for some minor adjustments to blatantly ridiculous corporate tax loopholes, he presides over 35K a plate campaign fundraisers with not one word about campaign finance reform, he scolds blacks and progressives to "fight" for causes that he won't fight for himself, and Obama and the DEM Senate majority have accomplished exactly ZERO! Now a year and change from the election we have a choice between the same old back bending rubber man and the devil. What a choice between economic suffering or ecomonic Hell. What to do ?
