I called it before the election. He did nevertheless manage to scam me out of my primary vote because I saw Hillary as a non-option due to her refusal to say her Iraq vote was a mistake. But despite the unacceptability of Hillary, Obama still scammed me by making me think he was a civil liberties champion long enough to get my vote and then flip flop on FISA.

Seems to me that Obama is just another unprincipled centrist -- with the unusual twist of having black skin. I knew it when he triangulated against the Net Roots. When you throw in the Wall St. giveaway, there is nothing left but disgust. Sure he's better than any Republican but that's about as comforting as knowing that there's a worse shit sandwich than the one I'm being force fed currently.

Our entire political system has failed and we gotta start putting 2 and 2 together:

1) We can't stop a scumbag from stealing the presidency

2) We can't stop that scumbag from raiding the treasury via tax cuts for his rich friends and justifying it with disproven voodoo economics

3) We can't stop that scumbag from pulling off the largest hoax in American history on WMD

4) We can't stop that scumbag from using that WMD hoax to launch an illegal war of aggression that leads to a million deaths

5) We can't stop the scumbag from breaking the law and violating our rights publicly and brazenly

6) We can't stop Wall Street -- not satisfied with their huge tax cuts and record profits -- from looting the entire financial system right before our eyes

7) We can't stop the public executive branch lawbreaking even when we elect the allegedly socialist member of the opposition party

8) We can't stop the looting even when we elect the allegedly socialist a member of the opposition party

Our political system is in a state of massive FAIL.

I can't believe I'm saying this but here it is. In 2012 we all vote for Russ Feingold or Al Franken, throwing the election to Srah Palin, Mike Huckabee or some other Republican cretin.

The Republican adopts policies that crash the eoconomy into a depression. Then we take that Feingold/Franken base and leverage it into control of the Democratic party nomination in 2016. With Republican policies entirely discredited by reality and with the Republicans in thre White House so they get 100% of the blame, we win the next presidential election and hope Feingold and Franken realize the leadership potential they seem to have. They appoint Paul Krugman Sec of Treasury and Glenn Greenwald AG.

Then the New, New Deal commences.

Neil Young has a new album out:

"There's a bail out coming, but it's not for me

It's for all those creeps watching tickers on tv...

There's a bail out coming, but it's not for you

It's for all those creeps hiding what they do"

with Rove v Biden -- the battle of the blowhards. But Biden definitely is a blow hard, which is why I was appalled at Obama's choice of him as VP. Biden actually did better as a candidate than I thought he would, but I've been watching him for years and I know how he is.

If anyone would know a liar, it's Karl Rove, a professional liar, who mentored the biggest lying douchebag ever to serve in the presidency. The thing is -- in this case -- his lie is plausible. That sounds like something Biden would do. So who knows?

Biden was aleading indicator of Obama's bad judgment, but he's th least of Obama's problems now.
