like this. so much this: “Barack Obama rolls into office with Mitt Romney’s health care policy, with John McCain’s climate policy, with Bill Clinton’s tax policy, and George H.W. Bush’s foreign policy,” DeLong notes. “And did George H.W. Bush, did Mitt Romney, did John McCain say a single good word about anything Barack Obama ever did over the course of eight solid years? No, they fucking did not.” www.vox.com/…
And do not get me started on how much real power the Dems had at that outset.
My health care has me on “fear of bankruptcy Alert” on a regular basis. We have done little but widen the income gap and we extend even more charity to the wealthy. The recent methane acceleration adds yet one more climate coffin nail. And we still believe the USA has the right to force regime change into countries who are not our main oil partners.
Sorry- I am well and truly over that level of of lying at the feet of the oligarchs and waiting for some table scraps.
I am so delighted to see the various Democratic contenders loudly announcing that “this cannot stand” …...lets get this party started.
