Wow, look at the shit-storm Obama has just created by doing this deal with Repubs and then chastising the Progressives for being "sanctimonious" and "purist".
We haven't seen anger out of our side like this since.....ever?
What we've need all along was "enthusiasm" right? To mobilize all that pent up frustration and rage at the plutarchs and their enablers on the Right against the obscene fleecing of the 95% of people who work for a living, for the sake of those who collect interest and dividens for a living...
Well guess what folks, the Repubs are about to have a huge angry mob of Progressives, center-left, and even center-right (true fiscal conservatives...you know, the "real Republicans") citizenry who are going to start their own tea-party style uprising...
This drama is just starting, so hang onto your lazyboys and laptops...
I'm making some popcorn with real butter and am gonna enjoy the hell out of the next few months...
Maybe my candidate is a better chess player than i thought. We shall see...
