How can I when they JUST recently finished 8 years of unprecedented powers? IT’S VALID !!!!!!!!!!!! And Paul you are to most half-cup empty person on this site. So much for self delusion. AND- I probably criticize Obama just as much or more than you jokers. Why do I waste my time…. I really wonder.

Rob, Get off the Bush BS. That’s old news. Think out of the box I say. Things fall apart if “You let it.” I’m a half cup full guy, not half empty. Get with reality, face it head on and deal with it! Enough said. By the way, I live by “Failure is not an option.” By the way, I will quit this “Robby Boy” from now on. It has been bothering me. That was the Old Scot coming out of me.

Yes, but Bush II and Cheney made our Presidency into very a powerful entity during his eight long years, unfortunately. And sadly Obama hasn’t rescinded any of that ill-gotten power, and probably he never will. It’s hard to go back from some things, until EVERYTHING falls apart that is.

Remember one thing, the President is one person period. It is the House and Senate that dictates everything. The average American, 7 out of 10 don’t know their representatives let alone who is the VP of the USA!. You vote for an alternate candidate? Vote for Oprah! I’m not kidding! She’s known by more voters than Bush, Clinton and Obama. Now that is one of our problems!!! Dumbing down of America!!!

You see Paul people like us really do have some commonalities. However, it appears that your “side” is much less interested in compromising in a real world way to make it work. You just want it your way, or no way. That is not helpful or possible, except for in a dictatorship or totalitarianism.

And you need to start understanding that it isn’t just about the GOP and DFL. It’s about the SYSTEM and how we fund our elections (Big money and corporate power/influence). We can have a more true democracy, if we demand it. We need to work together on that. The moneyed two party corporate-backed system is killing this country. You know it and I know it. So let’s change it, for real, somehow. What if that meant not voting at all, as a way of peaceful protest? Or vote for an alterante candidate. After voting Dem my whole life I am ready to do that. Obama is just Bush’s third term, more or less. So for all you wing-nuts out there who liked Bush (cringe), you really should like Obama too (and Clinton, for that matter). But you actually believe there is much of a difference. Foolish people.

Again, this is just another “Money Grab” only it’s a bigger scheme than just Goldman Sachs ripping off the American people. Now, it’s a global ponzi scheme to shake us all down for more money until we’re all out in the street. In other words, we won’t have to wait until the final crash of the economy to be all destitute and homeless. The Climate Czars will see to it. What childish talk about all of these Czars, my God, this is America and we don’t need Czars over here.
John Adams, in a letter to Thomas Jefferson in 1787. “I see in the near future a crisis approaching. It unnerves me and causes me to tremble for the safety of my country … the Money Power of the country will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people, until the wealth is aggregated in a few hands and the Republic is destroyed. We are close to the breaking point.

Rob, for once we agree. I would strongly suggest that before the next election and going forward that the candidates whomever they are, be given time to state their opinions without a biased moderator, time to speak and finish their thought not cut short, on all the networks at the same time, no commercials just questions, answers not being “canned” from their parties platform! I’m sick of it. I’ve watched every candidate from both sides since Eisenhower, Stevenson, etc. and my God how times have changed in the media which I firmly believe has changed America for the worst causing qualified people that should be running for office to back off saying to themselves lif’s to short to go through hell. Are Democrats better than Republicans? No. Are Republuicans better? Not always. Forget the party line, VOTE principles and hope and pray people WAKE UP!!!. Enough said.

We Are Change - you get it, the rest of these people don’t. I have posted my disappointment and worse with the “Liberals” as well as the Fascist Right. The differece is as you say a true illusion. (yes there are some, but not enough to make any real difference, and used mainly to keep us lemmings voting for one or the other).

Until more people “get it” we re doomed for more of the same, no matter who is in office. The true believers of either party are the ones who have swallowed the most kool-aid. E.g.: even after 8 years of one of the worst, ever, they can’t wait to vote another one in. Insane, or as Neil sounds… crazy is as crazy does.

I love Poland. You guys get it. My Grandma is Polish, making me about 25% Polish myself. Maybe that’s where I got my common sense.

I understand your anger and passion, but please, in the future, here and elsewhere, refrain from using ALL CAPS. It’s very annoying to read and easily ignored.

My God, based upon what I just read, I can hardly wait until 2010. By the way, I don’t hate anyone. I just have a difference of opinion with different parties views, votes ,opinions that are, in my opinion, totally against what America stands for in these trying times. We are more inclined to argue who won the dance contest rather than who is the best qualified candidate to run for President! Remember to VOTE come next November! If you don’t, don’t grouse here! If you do vote make certain that he/she is vetted by you as well as others. Not just another “BOHICA.” (Bend Over Here It Comes Again) candidate!

So what should we compromise on? There are stark differences between the two main parties that are not illusions. How do you suppose those differences materialized? Was it planned? By who? I don’t think so. Take abortion for example. Possibly the most polarizing issue ever. Are you trying to tell me that some international cabal has planned that argument?
I have made BSD part of my moniker because of this kind of BS. If you ask me, and you basically are by posting it, the people who are trying to do what you say reside on the Left in this country. They are for it by their support for Obama. The Conservatives are the ones fighting against it, while the Left is following in lockstep over the cliff with it. We are not all together on this. Nor should we be. There will always be a difference of philosiphy and opinion. Right now it is the Left who are leading us down that road because they think it’s going to save the planet and lead to peace and love and we’ll all hold hands and sing cum bya! They’re dreaming! They’re the ones that need to wake up.

I think Barry studied the constitution to find ways around the separation of power’s. Will he be successful? I don’t know. It does make me nervous that the EPA has deemed CO2 a regulatory gas. I hope there are whistle blowers there that will keep them on the straight and narrow. A guy can hope can’t he?
