Original article: Obama talks about Hamas

285 Are Not Enough

285 Palestinian deaths are not enough to cause Hamas to renounce its policy of violence against Israel. 285,000 Palestinian deaths might be enough but, knowing Hamas, even that is doubtful. Israel has made peace with Fatah and with most of its other Arab neighbors. But Hamas is committed to the destruction of Israel and, unfortunately, it is accomplishing the destruction of its own people. Hamas will never learn, and the Palestinians will never learn until they dump Hamas. Until then, my Palestinian friends, Hasta La Vista, baby.

The FDR :Landslide of 1936 Vs. Republican Lies of 2009

If in fact FDR's New Deal policies prolonged the Great Depression, and the economy did not improve until we entered World War II, then why in 1936 was Roosevelt re-elected by the greatest landslide in American history (up till then) -- carrying 46 of the 48 states? 1936 was the year when the expression was coined "As goes Maine, so goes New Hampshire" -- these were the only two states carried that year by the Republican candidate, Alf Landon. The overwhelming FDR landslide of 1936 is overwhelming proof in itself that today's Right-Wingers are lying, once again, about the effects of FDR's economic policies on the Great Depression.

Republicans -- Obstruction and Destruction!

The Right-Wing Media Hyenas are ranting and screaming in their all-out campaign to destroy Obama's Economic Recovery Plan. Their attacks have been particularly shameless against the two main questioners at Obama's Town Hall meeting yesterday in Florida -- the young student who has been a part-time employee of McDonald's for the past 4-1/2 years, and the lady whose family is now homeless and sleeping in a car. Republicans have truly become The Party of Obstruction and Destruction. That's all they have left to offer.

Original article: Depressed? No! We're angry

Conservatives Have Infuriated America

Americans are furious about the Right-Wing "Conservative" economic ideology that has gotten us into this mess over the past eight years, and about the Republicans' current "bipartisanship" where exactly three Republican Members of Congress voted for the Stimulus Package which has the support of nearly 70% of the American people. You're darn right Americans are angry, and with every good reason.

Bye Bye Bipartisanship

The American people have now seen the response Obama gets when he reaches out for Republican support for legislation the country so desperately needs. Americans will fully understand when Obama justifiably abandons his futile efforts at bipartisanship and simply rams through Congress the other laws we need to repair the damage that eight years of Bush's horrendous "Conservative" policies have inflicted on the USA.

FDR and Obama

FDR told liberal leaders: "I agree with you, I want to do it, now make me do it." What liberals today must realize is how destructive and recalcitrant Right-Wingers are. On every issue from the Fairness Doctrine to More Spending instead of Tax Cuts For the Rich, Liberals should be pushing Obama to disregard the Republicans and get major legislation passed with his Democratic majorities to counter-act the enormous damage Conservatives have done to America over the past eight years.

Original article: Watching Republicans grieve

Republicans Have Made All America Grieve

For the past 8 years, Republicans have made our entire nation grieve. The only reason Conservatives are grieving is because the rest of the country finally woke up and didn't allow them to destroy the USA completely -- economically, morally, internationally, and in every other way.

President Obama's Bully Pulpit Can Trump the Beltway Press

Beltway journalists and TV pundits will have much less influence as long as President Obama keeps going out and doing his local Town Hall meetings in Indiana, Florida, etc. Obama can use the bully pulpit of the White House to reach out to the people, over the heads of the press, and create the major nightly news headlines and the political momentum to get his programs passed.

SNL Strikes Again

SNL is back at the top of its game. This parody of the GOP's current Congressional leadership is the best thing SNL has done since Tina Fey took down Sarah Palin. A pitch perfect dead-on representation of today's Republican brain-trust.

Limbaugh is Smart.

Rush Limbaugh is very smart. He has earned millions by persuading his listeners to vote against their own best economic interests. Is it that Rush is so smart or that his listeners are so dumb?
