1. Give Obama a Dem Congress if you want him to do Democratic things.

[Coyote_Bandit]

2. He had one for two frickin years

[mistertrickster]

3. Damn right. He gets to OWN the failure of timidity. nt

[Kurmudgeon]

8. And Bush had a GOP Congress for 6. And got his agenda, crooked as it was, through.

Without a Congress that will work with him, NO president can accomplish ANYTHING.
Keep that in mind when you next bash Mr. Obama for right wing's sake.

[bluestate10]

9. The House under Pelosi pass lots of legislation. The Senate never had more than

58 firm votes for democratic policies.

[Zorra]

16. Let's see...there are 100 Senators. 58 Dem votes vs 42 Republican votes.

And you can't get any effective Democratic legislation passed.

The game is rigged. Who is with us, and who is against us?

In order to save the nation, the President should have stomped on Harry Reid's and other Dem Senator's heads until they agreed to end the filibuster rule.

[librechik]

25. the game is rigged. but Obama can't make the Senate drop the filibuster

Unless you want a dictator, not a President.

[Recovered Repug]

18. But, there were more than 6 republicans east of the mississippi.

How was he supposed to overcome obstacles like that?

[nadinbrzezinski]

4. Did I imagine the Dem house of 2008?

[ChiciB1]

5. Yeah, You Did Know Congress Was Controlled By Dems For TWO YEARS

didn't you? Sometimes I think people just, uh FORGET!

[Kurmudgeon]

10. Voters cut the legs out from under the Dems in 2010, or did you just forget?

Looks like one more person upset with the Dems when the US screwed up and gave Congress to the GOP.
The hypocrisy, it REEKS.

[CelticThunder]

6. I live in a permanently blue district, and my state has two Dem senators. Next suggestion?

[bluestate10]

13. If you have republican House representatives, help get rid of them. nt

[mistertrickster]

14. That's kinda hard to do when the Democratic leader tells everyone how

great the Republican ideas are and makes no case for our side.

[CelticThunder]

19. I said I live in a BLUE district.

[immoderate]

7. Or else he does Republican things.

It's his nature!

11. I am a big Obama supporter. He is the best choice. But he MUST stop

compromising with republicans. Republican idiots take his attempts at defining policies that both parties can implement to help the nation as weakness. Time for Obama to use Executive Branch tools to shutoff republicans and get the country moving. Basically, President Obama must abandon compromise, back republicans into a corner, get the nation moving them continue to pressure republicans by becoming more aggressive as the country gains economic strength.

[WI_DEM]

15. He had a Dem congress for two years and even then was too timid.

[Bandit]

20. You mean like the Super Majority he had for his first year?

:shrug:

[holdencaufield]

12. Sing it with me...

"Breaking up is hard to Dooooo"

[Fumesucker]

17. No, we voted for *candidate* Obama...

Who is only just now beginning to show hints of returning to the persona of Barack Obama once again after having been totally absent since Jan 20, 2009.

[blindpig]

21. And after winning, Jan, 2013, who will he be then?

I bet I know....

[Fumesucker]

22. Even a blind pig finds an acorn every now and then..

;)

[Maven]

24. How is he showing that?

By caving to big polluters, um, I mean, job creators and scrapping smog regulations?

[Fumesucker]

27. LOL.. I think I said "hints"...

His rhetoric is becoming a bit more progressive, I'm sure we'll swoon all over that.

[JNinWB]

23. I'm grateful to Obama for even running for re-election and I still love him

If I were him, I would say "Sayonara" and move to Hawaii and devote myself to family affairs.

Who needs death threats and the hatred of Democrats for what is a totally thankless job.

[RiverStone]

26. Thanksless, probably - but we brought this onto himself

I worked like hell to elect Obama and still "hope" to vote for him. But unlike the pukes, we Dems don;t walk in lockstep and when a candidate - even the President, does not follow his campaign pledges he needs to appreciate that there are consequences.

I'd never vote for a republican, but I sure would propose a true progressive to run against him.
