I am NOT defending him. I find it amusing that there is NOTHING that BHO could do that would not draw scrutiny from the hard right. It fact, the right has pinned itself in a corner that is so constrictive that even if they have a legitimate point, it is summarily dismissed as right wing rhetoric.
The 2 party system is so polarized that it has frozen itself in a stalemate. Neither side can try and negotiate a deal with the other without being accused as a nuthugger.
So let me be clear and state my opinion on our President. I see him as an ineffective leader, and a less that adequate politician. His 1st 2 years have crippled him because he didn't have the nads to reign control over the progressives that were fighting over their own all or nothing socialistic agenda. He should have told dirty Harry and Pigosi to go fuck themselves and bring him some bills that were inclusive of all the people instead of a socialist left wing pipe dream. That being said, BHO is not the reason or even will be the reason of our country's "impending doom". He is however a symptom of a failed republic structure that is snowballing toward an autocracy that maybe only a total changing of the guard will fix.
On the other side of the aisle, The Repubs reaped what they had sown from the 104th through the 109th Congress. Starting with the impeachment of the president over a blowjob right through the Iraq war, They shoved their agenda through the system with impunity, and only the radical supreme court stopped our country from falling over the theocratic abyss.
Most of the blame for the Democratic presidential coo is the Republicans own fault. Their own moral agenda is their own demise. They just have not produced a candidate that fits their own "pedestal" of standards that are both pallitable, and electable. I mean shit guys, Mcain (rino) and Romney? (Morman nut job) Give me a fucking break.
The only way to stop this insanity is to change constitutionally, State by State, impose term limits in all phases of the government including the Supreme Court. The role of congress should revert back to the public service sector and not be profitable in power or money for anyone. Hell, give anyone elected into congress a pension just for their service that is only revokable for being convicted of a felony.
So tell me Like_that, Is that defending Obama?
