I don't know what you're asking me to try. I just think that your logic is unreasonable given the reality.
Where is the end? The Republicans have been, since the president's oath of office engaging in a campaign of singular harrassment and obstructionism. They are going to make him fail at any cost, just like they were going to ruin Clinton: that's why he was impeached.
Unemployment is still going to drop realtive to the time it takes this stimulus to get going. So I think you guys are criticizing just to criticize really. |
no offense but of you have not clued in already that Obama manages to place him self on both sides of just about EVERY issue, well what can I say...
he bashs bush, oh hey the stimulus will save jobs, the numbers are indeed bad we are in the pit, hey consumer confidence went up a notch I am confident, don't expect a quick turn around, housing has bounded back oh wait no it didn’t, hey we need to add 450 billion more for a omnibus budget bill that HE and dems purposely didn't pass under bush because he would have vetoed it if it was that large, hey we need to get to basics Paygo, hey we need to forgo Paygo for AMT relief, I will not hold military tribunals, well we have made some changes ( cosmetic) so we are holding tribunals….we cannot hold people forever in limbo, we need to hold them indefinitely, I am dead set against amnesty for telcoms and wire tapping…I had to vote for wire tapping amnesty, we don’t do rendition….we still do because we need Bagram and Egypt to do our dirty work…need I go on?
