6. Why Don't You Supply The Complete List Of things Obama Stood Tall On?
Edited on Mon Oct-19-09 12:48 PM by MannyGoldstein
Only one I can think of is the stimulus bill, which was less than half of what Krugman, Stiglitz, and other top economists said was needed.

9. Because I've used up my daily allotment of energy to be spent on lost causes.
The lists have been made, the accomplishments are numerous and substantial.

None are so blind as those who chose not to see.

5. Theres only
one chump so far on this thread. I'll leave it to you and your wisdom to know all to figure out who it is.

Just because you find articles from "unamed" sources to try and pass off as fact doesn't make them so.

How many times now have you told us the PO is dead? To many times. You're like the fucking boy who cried wolf, after so long, people just ignore the cries and your time has long passed to be taken as anything but an Obama hater who wants to see him fail.

As far as the price on intrade dropping because of one of five bills............that just shows me how clueless they are about the process. The Baucus bill is not the be all end all bill.
