9. Well there must have been a gun to his head, or there must have been
Some notion that he couldn't pull away from business as usual because it's not like there was a mandate on the night of November 4th or ...

Wait a minute. There was a mandate! Why oh why does Obama refuse to acknowledge the manddate? And where is the promised change?

I offer you this roolicking version of proof as to why the Bailout failed

27. Sorry, the media says Obama cannot be seen to be reaching
out to his liberal base.

Amusing, no?

20. I have a logical reply
I read a great article today about how most DLC democrats are straddling the fence between their financial supporters (banks,Corps, etc.) and the average Jill and Joe. They can not do it much longer and need to make a choice. That is Obama's dilemma as well.

25. Your larger icon almost implies that O better get it together and make the right choice
Before the Sea Shepherd comes sailing up the Potomac and gets him!

I do feel he needs a big huge nudge in that direction

26. +1 for lively logic
Edited on Thu Feb-12-09 03:14 AM by Sunnyshine
Straddling seems to be their favorite pose. They should be decisively siding with new economy, new jobs, new money, and new banking. Places and populations are competing for natural/economic resources. Dilemma should be the word of the day kids.

22. It's well past time to stop pretending supply-siders, like Geithner have a point.
It's time to take a 1930's progressive stance on the economy.

(Well, it's been that time for decades, but....)

29. But the banking industry really likes him.
We kept hearing how all President Obama's staff picks really don't matter because they will be implementing Obama's policy, right?

It's almost funny in a very sad way, how the President is playing our community. We get to blame Geithner and say Oh man is he bad, but it is Obama's policy.

34. Cenk is proving himself as the most
on the ball media commentator around.

Praising Obama where he deserves it & calling him out when he is compromised.

& the answer is NO. You can't trust a guy who cheats on his taxes, worked for the IMF & was the head of the NY FED.
