Blame Congress First....

[Aviation Pro]

...I recently had a polite discussion with an acquaintance over his/her disapproval of the President. However, as I explained to him/her, the bottom line is it's not President Obama's fault for assuming the task of cleaning out the Aegean Stable left by Two Shoes and Shitstain Shoots-Guy-In-Face. Furthermore, if anyone wants to blame someone or something:

BLAME THE 538 MOTHERFUCKING WHORES IN THAT DOMED EDIFICE AT THE OTHER END OF PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE!

That is all, carry on.

1. I blame both Congress and the President

Obama has shown that when he wants to pay for war he can arm twist Congress.

And Congress has shown that if it comes to enacting legislation to benefit the corporations they can act without prodding.

They both deserve criticism.

3. I do, too. I'm very disappointed in both of them.

And I hope we get some better Dem candidates in the primaries. I hope some of them are challenged and lose in the primaries.

I'm a straight ticket Dem, but I'm pissed.

2. A real president

would listen to the people and not the generals...he is just a another neocon puppet who happens to be a dem like Lieberman. The corporations are above us and too big to fail...no matter how poorly they are being run, just like our government.
How could you possibly justify holding one accountable without the other...that makes absolutely 0 sense.

6. Yep. Imagine a world with

60 Senators like Ted Kennedy, Paul Wellstone and Bernie Sanders. It would be a completely different country.

12. Don't forget a dozen or so Alan Grayson's

That would be a Congress we could believe in.

8. It would all be ok..

...if only Obama would do an LBJ and would use signing statements and, for example, change the Senate plan to Medicare for all, by executive order, over Congress' head, because Bush would do precisely that, and when I voted for Obama, I wanted someone who would be our Bush, dammit, and break shit.

10. If this was a dictatorship it would be a heck of a lot easier

as long as Obama was the dictator.

13. k&r Some folks are just to dim to get it,, giving Congress a huge pass

every single effing time when they're the ones that hold the purse strings, declare war, legislate new laws, yada, yada, yada.

I think it has to do with still suffering the Bush Syndrome. They just can't quit the being-the-victim-in-a-dictatorship mentality.
