(32,324 posts)I mean, remember how we all cheered on Nancy Pelosi when she started her successful impeachment proceedings against Pres Bush?
And then how we all cheered on the major re-write of the tax laws, so that people paying for health insurance and expensive over the counter meds got a break for those things?
And then Obama stood up to his Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner, saying, "Tim, we need to loan out some money to people in the 35 states with the worst deficits. I mean, Timmy, if you need to know how to do this, I'll explain it for you - rather than letting some 255 billions of dollars go off to 'modernize' the military, and to aid the UAE and Israel with weaponry, (and in a mere fourteen month period,) let's put that money to use here, to bolster the states of the Union."
And then there was Obama's heroics once elected, to see to it that the Bush crowd was tried for their treasonous war against the people of Iraq, and for their torture provisions that were so harmful to our nation's image abroad?
And how we all cheered for the fact that Obama made it clear to Eric Holder that the Medical Marijuana laws had been elected by a majority in of voters in the state of California, and that therefore, Holder should honor the voters and leave grandmas in wheelchairs with MS alone? And so the medical marijuana clinics were left alone.
I could go on and on - I mean, remember how he had the EPA monitoring stations up and running to let the people of California know how much dangerous radiation was hitting them after Fukushima went up? Remember how the FDA told people in California not to drink milk or eat vegetables while the fallout containing rains from Japan were soaking the state?
And how Obama has made it clear to the nuke industry that he won't help them by loaning them 58 billions of dollars, since Fukushima proves that even in a nation more technologically driven than us, (Japan) the industry still cannot operate safely.
I could go on and on, but since actually none of the above happened, it's hard to.
