91. Pissed on, are ya? Who are you to blame Obama because you didn't...
get what you wanted the way you wanted it?

NO administration is ever going to agree with me 100% and even then few are going to get more than half of what they want, so I'll take the crumbs and put the blame where it belongs. Besides, who besides you sez what you want is good for the country anyway?

Health care? Single payer was never going to happen. Maybe it will some day, but now is not the time and it was a cruel hoax played on the gullible to think it ever had a chance. Even the public option was DOA if anything was ever going to pass. But do you blame the Republicans and Blue Dogs for that, or the people who busted their asses to get ANYTHING passed?

Gitmo? Go ahead and blame Obama, who tried to close it down but every state in the union refused to let any of them in. I'd like to see us out of Afghanistan and Iraq, but it's a lot easier said than done. There was this crew who destroyed those counties a while back under the US flag, and there is something to be said about not leaving until they are put back together.

Financial crises? Unemployment? Get your calendar out and remember under whose watch things fell apart. Do you have any magic fairy dust to sprinkle and put millions of people to work? Does anyone?

And on and on it goes...

Go ahead and pray for Saint Dennis to win one day and make things right, but between prayers note that he never could get more than 5% of Democrats to take him seriously, much less the larger electorate.

Who's the base now?
