Democrats on the endangered species list..... A Virus which seems to remove their spines has taken over.

Man! ... I hate to compliment Bush for anything, but at least "The Decider" wasn't afraid do something. Sure,... most of the time,.. it was stupid,... it was usually wrong, or at best an outright lie,... but he stepped up to the plate swinging.

Democrats have wasted two years trying to get a handle on what to do with their majority. Our President, the lead Democrat, has demonstrated how perfectly reasonable he can be. Unfortunately, he's had his hat handed to him on every conflict that has arisen. Of course, showing up with your hat in your hand for each of those conflicts hasn't helped.

By being acquiescent, yet again, President Obama is condemning us to a life of servitude to the rich, and he is doing his best to be a "One Term President". Mr. Obama clearly stated his opposition to Bush-era economic policies and ridiculed the idea that "we should give more and more to millionaires and billionaires and hope that it trickles down on everybody else. But,... look. Here we are again... capitulating to the Bush-McCain philosophy. The exact thing he campaigned against.

The President and Congressional Democrats have bungled the tax debate from the beginning. This issue was a "No Brainer", but could the Democrats come up with a plan prior to the last election? Hell no!!! They don't even have a plan, now! And, it's way to late come up with one. It was "The Rich" against "The Middle Class" right from the start. As former Ohio Governor Ted Strickland said recently: “If we can't win that argument we might as well just fold up.” You're right Governor, but in order to actually "win" that argument,..... you have to "have" that argument. Has anyone out there actually heard President Obama argue,... I mean seriously... fist on the desk... argue,.. about anything?

He's been too busy "reaching across the isle" embracing bipartisanship. Take a close look at those hands embracing you back, Mr. President. If you can find any, they're in your pockets... picking them for all they're worth. President Obama's posture on the tax cuts is almost a clone of his stance on the public option during healthcare reform. The President says he wants the policy, but does absolutely nothing to fight for it. And, the American people are once again cast into the abyss.

Come on Mr. President! ..."Man up! ... Show some gumption! That's what we elected you for. Your self-destructive, gentlemanly, attitude isn't working. They're not listening! Show some backbone, and maybe Congressional Democrats will find their spines, as well.
