Criticism of Obama is good, healthy. Some bashing is expected. 95% pure bashing...
No, bashing is talking about his ears and other inane topics. Every post started about him is on a topic that deals with politics and what affects our daily lives. If you'd take off your own partisan glasses, you'd see that.
I'm shocked that you on the left don't understand why there are so many topics in the SPIN ROOM, POLITICAL BOARD on, guess what, POLITICS. WTF do you expect? Topics on bunnies and tulips?

I'm all for well reasoned debate. Robert al-N is simply not capable of that. His views invite ridicule and scorn, and rightly so.

funny thing is this board during the bush years was full of Libs posting all sorts of things, seems they have retreated for the Obama years vs. defending the indefensible. With a few exceptions(Roberta)

Obama to propose strict new regulation of financial industry

President Obama is expected to unveil a plan that would give the government new powers to seize key companies whose failure jeopardizes the financial system.
The plan would give the government new powers to seize key companies whose failure jeopardizes the financial system, as well as creation of a watchdog agency to look out for consumers' interests.

Reporting from Washington -- The Obama administration this week will propose the most significant new regulation of the financial industry since the Great Depression, including a new watchdog agency to look out for consumers' interests.
Under the plan, expected to be released Wednesday, the government would have new powers to seize key companies -- such as insurance giant American International Group Inc. -- whose failure jeopardizes the financial system. Currently, the government's authority to seize companies is mostly limited to banks. ---MORE---
He's a f'n Marxist. There is no other way to put it.
You are a psychotic. There is no other way to put it.
Just curious. Is there anything this administration could do that would worry you?
Let's keep in mind, we're still in Iraq, we're still in Afghanistan, the Patriot Act has been ramped up, taxes are up, deficit spending is up...
Sure there is sometrhing this administration could do that would worry me. He could say he is leaving the Democrats to join the Republicans. He could call a bunch of countries the "Axis of Evil". He could go start a war in a country that didn't attack us. He could re-approve the use of torture. Those are just a few off the top of my head.

Wow, and I wonder why no one here takes you seriously.
Next time I'll sit back if you get banned. Maybe we can get some folks w/ politically left opinions who actually put some thought behind them.

I guess you weren't really looking for answers. Those are legit answers to your question even if you don't like them. Great, get rid of the lefty so you can have your republican love fest without distractions like the truth. There have been several on here but they either get banned or are laughed at and not taken seriously.
