When the facts appear, and it turns out they were totally wrong, they all demonstrate collective amnesia and move on to the next rumor they're going to get upset about. As long as that rumor fits into their "Obama fails" paradigm. <br /><br />They're mostly only talking to themselves, and every time they step out of their safe little world, it turns out that there are people who deal with political reality who start slapping them around with facts, so they run back and whine how mean everyone is.Norbrookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11383422747683493947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7163441833245663827.post-50536416705834560802011-11-15T14:28:04.201-06:002011-11-15T14:28:04.201-06:00Johann - Thanks for commenting but I wonder if you...Johann - Thanks for commenting but I wonder if you have anything to say about what I've actually written. <br /><br />Your list in the second paragraph is interesting but pretty long. <br /><br />You seem to think that together they form an immediate knee-jerk reaction that should lead us to not trust Obama/Dems. That kind of cryptic critique is not going to work in these parts. You'll need to do better than that.Nancy LeTourneauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12614317154146836694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7163441833245663827.post-23481924032132781382011-11-15T13:55:31.572-06:002011-11-15T13:55:31.572-06:00Excellent article.

(I'd buy that meme except for things that happened without the GOP): <br /><br />Bernanke, Summers, Geithner, Cat Food Commission, Holder, Alan Simpson, Defending Wall Street, Calling for more Free Trade, Calling for Patriot Act Renewal, Looking to GE's Outsourcing CEO for advice on "Jobs", appointing a JP Morgan Bankster as Chief of Staff, meeting in secret with Pharma, Bradley Manning, "Shared Sacrifice". <br /><br />*whew*<br /><br />Damn those obstructionist Republicans!Johann Ivanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06084834845936062377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7163441833245663827.post-79861429656438707392011-11-15T09:51:07.017-06:002011-11-15T09:51:07.017-06:00Thank you for this.

The first thing I read this morning over at TPM was an article that cautioned poutragers to wait until the facts were clearer.<br /><br />Your article and that one do wonders at clearing things up for people like me who are not politically astute. The comments after the TPM article were very depressing. People had already started to plan to not vote because the Dems had <br />"caved" again.<br /><br />Take it from me, the poutrager's have a big stick: They do more to depress voter turnout than what the Republicans are currently trying to do?<br /><br />When will they learn that " a house divided against itself....? Oh, never mind. So glad you're here, SP.eveingeorgiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01633540780387757620noreply@blogger.com
