Everybody's Pointing Fingers At Everybody Else

>


Florida ConservaDem Bill Nelson is demanding Obama start "cracking the whip" on House Democrats to pass the wretched Senate healthcare bill the whole country hates-- Republicans and Democrats-- and is mostly favored by Insurance Industry executives, like the ones who have given Nelson $550,646.
"The president has not been engaged like he should," Nelson said during a visit to the University of Florida.

The Florida Democrat said Obama needed to "put on a pair of brass knuckles and get out a bull whip" to push the House to act. After the bill is passed, he said, later modifications can be made, such as removing a controversial giveaway to the state of Nebraska.

At the same time, Tom Perriello (D-VA), perhaps trying to get his mojo back after that eminently regrettable vote for Stupak's anti-choice amendment, implored the Senate to "get off their duff" and pass a jobs bill.
"I think a lot of people across the aisle are waking up to how much of a crisis this job situation is," Perriello, a vulnerable House Democrat entering the 2010 election, told ABC's Top Line.

"I think we need to take back that bailout money, put it into a jobs bill," he added. "We need the Senate to get off its duff and begin moving on jobs."

True enough, but no one seems to care what anyone else is saying; they're all talking over each other's heads and this is probably because we have a weak and ineffective president with an inexperienced and incompetent staff. That's why his polling numbers are headed straight down the toilet. He doesn't have the luxury of waiting for months to fire Emanuel. He should do it right now and salvage what he can. Obama needs to be the leader he persuaded us he would be when we voted for him. I know it's not easy, but that's why he makes the big bucks and gets to ride that big plane.

More like a cactus. We've had a kosher cactus shoved up our asses sideways and the Conservative Media just keeps pushing it further...

We're fucked, we might as well give up, let the Republicans ruin the country, and then make them fight with their guns, bombs and religion to get back what we used to have before they ruined it..

Resisting absolute stupidity is futile. There is no war to be won as long as the rich have the mind control of the media to save the day.
