#316: So the whole show was like a protective barrier between on an the other? A little something for the weekend…

#335, cap and trade and the stimulus were at best half-measures. Obama is on the edge of even losing public option. He and the Congressional leadership have been arguing from positions of weakness – unnecessarily – from the beginning. By going into negotiations asking only for the reserve, they have no headroom.

I don’t expect a DLCer to understand this – arguing from weakness is their raison d’etre.

#329, all Dems are terrified of the RW media, and afraid of being portrayed as “liberal” or “left”. It’s why they’re so far to the right of their constituents.

Peter, I find it hard to believe that anyone is saying that Obama’s given away the farm. Look, the guy has been in office for less than SIX MONTHS. Look at what has been accomplished so far. The stimulus package got done. Cap and trade passed the House. His budget passed. And now health care reform is on agenda — something that hadn’t been o the agenda for 16 years after Hillarycare got killed.

I thought he was going to be a pansy assed dilletante that couldn’t get anything done. I was wrong.

He is a pragmatist, which pissed idealogues off but I’m just fine with that. Idealism is great, but it doesn’t get things done.

321—I have begun to wonder if Obama is a bit afeared of the RW media machine and that’s why he won’t negotiate the hard way.

If he asked for single payer on the table here’s all the cries of “COmmie, Commie!” Oh I hate the Bill- 0s.

306—it’s sad, but we’re in so much trouble here in CA. The enrollments at Cal States have been put on hold ’til 2010 or 2011 I think. They are impacted because there is so much unemployment.

Truly, I think people are just going to have to move away.

“Pragmatist” seems to be code for “negotiating from a position of weakness, and then having to fight tooth and claw to even get your reserve”.

You always start asking for far more than you’re hoping to get. Dem “pragmatists” always forget this.

If the White House and the Dems in congress were really smart they would have started by pushing for single payer and then come to a grand “bipartisan” agreement by relenting to a public option. The Dems dropped that ball way too early in the discussion.

Congrats Danielle!

Many women have had babies without a man around. Trust me—many married women have birthed and raised children while married without a man around. :-/
