"Obama has tried to unite this country..." Oh, THAT was what he was doing when he said Republicans could come along for the ride, but that they would have to shut up and sit at the back of the bus. I never would have guessed... And your "Teabagger" comment, is that a part of your personal effort to unite the country? quote:
ORIGINAL: Charles6682 Obama has tried to unite this country.However,those on the far right like the Teabaggers won't have any of that.Compromise in any fashion does not work well for the.They really don't know how. I'm a "democrat"... as much as I can stomach being aligned with any of them anyway. I'm sorely disappointed in Obama. I'm disappointed not because of his left or right agenda or whether he's being "progressive enough" or not. I'm disappointed because he turned out to be an insufficient leader for the job at hand. I readily acknowledge that the job is a hard one... perhaps almost impossible. But hey, he signed up for it so I expect him to be able to do it. No excuses from this lefty. What IS the job? In my mind it has nothing to do with gitmo, health care reform, or the war in the country-du-jour. In my mind, Job #1 was getting the left and right of this country to remember that we are, in fact, one country with many different viewpoints and that our leaders lead for ALL of us. I had hoped that he'd be a force for unification in the government. He failed at that. The left continues to get lefter and the right righter and we all accept blatant lies from both sides and think of it as normal. We also gladly create our own lies (again, on both sides) as anyone reading this forum can attest to. I had hoped that he would be a real leader capable of leading us back to a UNITED states despite the fact that none of us want that. No such luck. There ya go CD. A leftist being totally unapologetic for Obama. ~Jeff
