Make fun of Obama's healthcare plan as much as you like, but at least it is SOMETHING! At least it ATTEMPTS to make a few corrections.
Make fun of Obama's Wall Street reform plan as much as you like, but at least it is SOMETHING! At least it ATTEMPTS to make a few corrections.
And on and on....
Both sides are happy to fuck over the regular folk - but the GOP does it with more enthusiasm, and with no shame whatsoever.

I don't see evidence in the flow of campaign money that special interests & lobbyists favor one side. Fact is, money flows to the people in power. Why else is charlie Rangel & Chris dodd leaving congress? not because corporations denied them funding LOL.
& you know what i think of health care & wall street reforms. Garbage that fixes nothing at all. The wall street law was so empty the actual regulations are going to be written at the cabinet level. Nobody has a clue what it will do. However its guaranteed those with high priced access will get their 2 cents in what gets written.
My opinion is that the dems have done a huge dis-service to america, passing a "stimulus" that stimulated nothing, a health reform that changes nothing, a bank bill that changes nothing. People have less trust in government solutions then ever. so if you believe the government has affirmative solutions to the countries problems, these democrats flushed that idea down the toilet & handed the teabaggers a big gift. Confirmation that government cannot solve problems.
At least the GOP admits in hushed tones its favortisms. Dems talk like they are out to help the people & its a massive fraud.
