Mr. President, do the country a favor:

[rateyes]

Fire Rahm, now!

[polichick]

1. Wouldn't he be taking the fall for his boss? Do you really think he acts alone? nt

[rateyes]

2. Just as long as he falls.

[Ken Burch]

3. All Rahm has done is push the administration in a rightward direction

He has never fought the RIGHT. He has never fought in defense of progressives. And he's never, never, ever, ONCE, at any point in his career, defied corporate power.

Rahm was put in place to stop everything. And that's what he's done.

I truly think he was imposed on President Obama, and that the President would be much more clearly on our side if Rahm hadn't been appointed.

[polichick]

5. But I remember that Rahm wasn't sure he wanted the job because...

...his family didn't want to leave Chicago. I got the idea that he was Obama's hometown friend.

[Ken Burch]

6. Well, of course he'd say something like that.

The guy didn't want to look excessively eager.

[polichick]

7. So you don't think Obama chose him? nt

[Ken Burch]

8. It's hard to say

I don't accept that he was what Obama really wanted. Maybe I'm just being too charitable to the president, but Rahm's whole M.O. is in direct opposition to the way the president let us think things would be done.

[polichick]

9. Yeah, my heart sank when Rahm was chosen. Now, after so many...

...questionable decisions by Obama, I'm not so sure he wasn't conning us during the campaign. Verdict is still out.

[Dinger]

4. That's The "elephant" In The Room, Isn't It?

No pun intended.

[mkultra]
