Lately the Obama administration has been moving left
I'm glad to see it. Since HCR passed, the Administration and the President have signaled a move to the left on issue after issue. `Yeah, there are distinct gaps in this. It's not across the board, but the administration is taking more liberal stances than at any time since the inauguration.

3. I agree ~ it's as if they wanted to get
the HCare Bill passed and now we are going in the RIGHT direction ~ to the LEFT.

Excellent, I felt all along that this was going to happen but now we seem to be on a faster moving train. :bounce:

8. He might as well.
The M$M accuses him of it as if liberal thought was an evil plague. The M$M is seeking to mainstream Teabagger talking points.

But Tweety was an improvement Friday. Tweety likes a stronger more decisive President Obama and it is reflected in his words.

10. sure. the criminal charges against Goldman and former
Blackwater president, new environmental agricultural regs (yes, I know that the oil and gas exploration off the east coast is an exception- but that's what it is, an exception), energy policy, the new HHS rule dictating that partners have access to their loved ones in hospitals, and quite a few more.

14. Moved to the left of where he's been since taking office.
But that isn't "left" per se.
