On healthcare reform, Obama is the problem not the solution

Barrack Obama,from the beginning of the healthcare debate has proved that far from being ready to president from day one, he has been not just politically inept, but has shown that he really had no committment to the kind of reform most Democrats and most people in the country were looking for.

The reason is its hard to have the courage of your convictions when you have no courage and no convictions. And Obama has displayed all through the debate that he has neither.

With the public option, what most acknowledge is the centerpeice of healthcare reform, and the one component that polls better than anything else, Obama threw in the towel to the town hall crazies and congressional Republicans who lied through their teeth about it, to get away from the political heat..

      The oligarchs openly talking about a coup d'état in America?
     

    Multi-millionaire lobbyist Grover Norquist is calling for the impeachment of President Obama. In an interview with the right-wing National Journal - Norquist warned that if President Obama wins re-election and decides to let the Bush tax cuts for the top 2% expire at the end of the year - then Republicans will "have enough votes in the Senate in 2014 to impeach [him]."
     
    What does that mean? It means that the super rich in America - and their political operatives like Norquist in Washington, DC - have now compared a tiny tax increase on the wealthy to high crimes and treason - the only Constitutional basis Congress can use to impeach a President. It sounds like the oligarchs are now openly talking about a coup d'état in America.
