It is shocking just how Republican Obama is — Obama is racking up a long list that would make Republicans proud. Today, he announces expanded drilling for oil off the East Coast, Gulf Coast, and even parts of Alaska. It reminds me again of Bill Maher who said, “Democrats have moved to the right and the Right has moved into the Mental Hospital.”
President Obama has decided he will be a President for big business — pretty much like Georgie W. Health Care Reform maintains a for-profit system, and this will benefit big Pharma, Hospitals, and Health Insurance companies. Now, Obama is paying off the likes of big Energy and the boys at Exxon — nearly impossible to distinguish him from Georgie. It doesn’t matter to Obama that he was opposed to expanded drilling during the Presidential campaign. That was the campaign, and this is the reality.
Obama is making sure to hand out something for everybody, with one exception. Obama doesn’t much care about liberal and progressives. He reasons that progressives have no place to go but he would be wrong about this. For Health Care, progressives are not happy and the only silver lining was it was necessary to keep the Democrats and Obama in the game. But, if in the game means more new holes in the ground for the clearly ridiculous idea that America can drill its way out of its oil addiction, then Obama and Democrats are going to be surprised at just how little enthusiasm progressives have for Obama and the Democrats in the future.
Thinking about Obama’s overall record, he is a Republican — not a Republican like today’s Republicans, more like the kind of Republicans that has destroyed America since the 1980s. Right down the line, Obama frequently is doing what Reagan would have done — for-profit health care system, for-profit energy, for-profit wars, etc.
No wonder that Obama has secret meetings with big business and makes deals that are not made public. Obama is a corporatist but he will get no credit from Republicans — 24% of them think he is the anti-Christ and over half think he is a Muslim. He doesn’t get any support in Congress from Republicans who claim he is a socialist. Yet, Obama continues to spit in the face of the liberals and progressives in the Democratic Party — these are the people who are the activists and the workers for future campaigns. Now, with the oil drilling announcement, he is sending out a message that he doesn’t want their help in the future. Obama will be getting what he wants.
America is Doomed.
The Obamanation is staying true to his slave masters. He is a corporate shill, like I have always said that he was . Flaming Libs and “Progressives” never gave him the big buckos, because they don’t have any. You said it, Big Pharma, Big Insurance, Big Oil, Big AMA, all contributied millions, if not hundreds of millions,both before and after the election. You have no voice. Money buys results in “Washinton”.
They are all the same. Clinton, the rapist, Ronnie Reagoon, New World Order Bush One, Weasel Face “Dubbya”. This is where we are in AmeriKa. about 5 big Corps run the whole deal. There is truely a corparate conspiracy, whose biggest backer is the US Federal “Gubsamunts”. Big food loves these assholes as they increase food stamp payments and handouts. (I support that in spite of their reasons for doing it). But the real reason they do it is to subsidize the toxic food industry, which in turn feeds the Medical Mafia and Big Pharma. And all of Big Pharma’s products are derived from PETROLEUM. Also, our “corn diet” is so heavily dependant on petroleum that we will never really grow anything else. The circle is complete with complicit Obamanation. Start anywhere on the circle and you will end up in the same place.
Petroleum based fertilizers to seed the fields, Huge monolithic tractors to plant corn. Lots of diesel burned to harvest corn. Alot of diesel burned to to move the corn to processors and market. Alot of sick people from overly processed corn and chemical (petroleum based) additives. Fuel burned to get people to the Quack Doctors. Allopathic Quack Doctors writing “scripts” fo petroleum based pharmaceuticals that only serve to poison the patient more. Big Insurance denying all of these claims and doing their “weasel thing”. Hey, creamatoriums using natural gas to dispose of the “evidence”. Then it starts again. More natural gas needed to produce more NPK fertilizer, so they can plant more corn.
This Obamanation Guy should have to spend a weekend with some horny Catholic Priests, in a “communal shower”, without soap on a rope. Maybe he is so lod that they wouldn’t even like him. He’s not “tender” enough for their “seasoned tastes”.
America is irrevocably Doomed!!!
[...] I don’t excuse Obama one bit either. After campaigning against offshore oil drilling, he proposed more of it less than a month ago. This is just absurd but no more absurd than the way America [...]
