Last time for me, too.
You can believe that Obama won because he promised to do blah blah blah, but if you look at his record, you'll see that he hasn't come through on ANY of his blah blah blah promises except to OVERHAUL healthcare, instead of REFORM.
Don't worry about it not being socialized enough. It will be.
I voted for Clinton,Clinton, Gore, Kerry, and finally McCain. All of them being the lesser of two evils, and I really didn't believe the "evil" part until this administration.
I don't work in a bunker. i work in the basement of a major Boston hopsital that is hemorraging money because Obamacare 1.0 is a failure here in Mass. But I'm sure up in Maine, the hub of the universe, it will all work out better.
Yes, I'm a birther - not that I believe that Obama wasn't born in the US, but because I can't trust a man who will go to court to keep the most fundamental form of ID from being kept public. Transparency.
And we're called Tea Partiers. "Tea bagger" is a derogatory term coined by the liberal media to discredit a group of people who believe in smaller government, lower taxes, national defense, border security, and pride in the country we live in. Sorry if those concepts are so infantile.
My son has diabetes, my sister is on disability, and my neice is underemployed and will soon go off her mother's insurance. But I would prefer to try to deal with paying for their health insurance under the present (pre-Obamacare) system, than watch the decline of services offered and available while the money to pay for it all keeps getting sucked out of EVERYONE's pockets.

Like I say - Not much pleasure saying "I told you so".

How's that Hope-y Change-y workin' for ya?

>How's that Hope-y Change-y workin' for ya?

First off, the only reason Obama was elected in the first
place, was due to the disillusion suffered by the american
people, at the hands of a President who's only goal was to destroy the middle class, and line the pockets of the wealthiest 10% of this country. Bush and Cheney almost single handedly destroyed the republican party's chances
of winning anything in the next 20 years. There are independent voters, such as myself, that are sick and tired
of having to choose the lesser of two evils, and even more
aggravated by the apathy they seem to immediately develop, once elected. Obama is the first President in my lifetime to
shake the foundation of the status quo, and that scares the hell of out of the good old boy network that has been in charge for far to long. If by chance he stumbles along the
way, that's OK with me, at least he is heading in the right direction. Eight years of Bush, was like an eight year kick
in the balls, at the end of it, you welcome the first person
who comes along with an icepack, even if that icepack may cost a little more, at least you know the pain will eventually subside. The Republicans have nobody to blame, but themselves, for the mess they're in now, and all the bashing and mud flinging in the world, will not change the fact that they are up against a President who understands
the anger of the people who put him in office.

Just the none funny ramblings of someone who doesn't matter much on here.

Sorry, I only came back again because I seriously worry about you...it sounds like you're three Hannity's away from a water tower with a high powered rifle...which, contrary to poular belief, you still can own.

...I've seen his birth certificate, everybody who wants to see it can, even right wing blogs have verified it...it was on Hardball with Chris Mathews for christ's sake...unless your point is that his birth certificate doesn't SAY birth certificate it says Record of Live Birth, well guess what, that's what Oklahoma gives out too. Lucy has a "Record of Live Birth" from Oklahoma...given on the day of her birth...a certificate...given...on ...her...actual...birthday. That's how they do it...are you telling me that Lucy wasn't born in the U.S. I was there...I saw it.

..holy crap.

Wrong, the term came from their own signs, I've seen that tape too. That's the problem, complete dishonesty.


Sorry if those concepts are so infantile.


..they are not and you may have them, but you can't pick up your marbles and go home because you lost the election...and you can't make stuff up because you are angry and hate someone so much that you would rather destroy what you purport to love, than try to make it better.

...yes,you would have been paying, till they used up to the cap or they just got cut off. a 27 year old with diabetes was diluting her insulin in half under this excellent program, and died leaving behind 3 children...welcome to America.

Sigh.

See, you guys are doing to each other what the "liberal media" and "conservative right" do rather than having actual discourse.

Just because someone says or writes something that YOU don't believe, doesn't make them a liar.

Everyone is a hypocrite. Even your mom.

Substantive discussion or real issues will never take place while the hyperbole of political rhetoric rules the media.
