Why do they ~
Edited on Sat Mar-06-10 11:12 AM by goclark
hate Rahm so much?

They are really going crazy about him now because Michael Moore told them to be really mad at Rahm.

He is a "Bulldog" right?

Do they think that Obama does what Rahm tells him to do?

Do they believe AObama can't think on his own?

They like Bulldogs ~ right? :shrug:

1. They hate Rahm Emanuel because Rahm is a party hack.
He has a loyalty to the Democratic Party they don't share, and he likes to see the Democratic Party win.

That's why he pisses them off--and it's also why he's Chief of Staff.

He seems like he is loyal to Obama and he is a hard worker.

They make it seem like he is the Big Bad Wolf -- oh maybe that's why they don't like him -- he takes no prisoners when it comes to the President's agenda.

2. There's a contingent here whose perfect ticket would be Kucinich/Nader, w/Moore as Majority Leader.
Or any combination thereof. What are you going to do? Except hope there are more grownups out there voting than wishful thinkers.

4. Heh. You think nothing gets done NOW?
Try putting Kooch and Saint Ralph of Nader in power. Every little thing would become a Mexican standoff with them and Congress.

5. Dennis seems like a decent person.
I like that about him.

I can't even imagine listening to him on tv day after day after----

6. Rahm is a hard-nosed Chicago politician.
He doesn't take crap from anyone nor is he afraid of insulting anyone. He therefore sets himself up nicely as the perfect fall-guy/scapegoat for those on the far left who are furious with Obama for not creating a liberal utopia in 365 days.

7. We're never going to have a liberal utopia.
Not in the four or eight years Obama is President, or ever--unless every single Republican dies.
