OUR LEADER WON BUT LOST
The House of Representatives--
Where was President Obama work on behalf of Congress??
Did I just miss it?
He had a long list of accomplishments in spite of fights by Republicans to stop them. A good search shows them.
I do not understand that lack of effort to win ALL of Congress!
Do you? The PeoplesView.Net--- has many many opinions on it.
I wanted a fight- bare knuckles. A ko-- not--- tko.
His budget and Tax proposals will have a hard time in The House with Tea Pottie adversaries= no tax =no tax =no tax=just borrow=just borrow=just borrow
We can easily balance the budget. A 35% Effective Tax on just top10% does it.
In 2009, they paid about a 15% Effective Tax Rate. They have 73% of Net Wealth—83% Financial Wealth and get 50% individual income. Stop being suckered Americans balance that durn budget by FAIR taxation. Clarence swinney

"Soft-headed?" That's hardly the stereotype I had of the Obamafia. Ruthless, amoral, and power-mad would come closer to the mark. Useful traits for any political machine, to be sure, but not so good for the nation it afflicts. But the Obamafia has upped the ante, and I'm sure the other side will study, learn, and come up with something just as bad if not worse next cycle. That is, after all, how guys like you and Carter make a living, right?
