Obama can talk the talk.

When will we see him walk the walk?

it's the first time Obama went hard after Republicans and made a liberal case in the same speech, he painted that almost apocalyptic picture of the Republican future - that was brilliant; I liked it a lot

Anyone who says that a tax cut must be paid for is either a blithering idiot or a college student

In case you don't want to see the entire video, Obama's budget speech was another false 'campaign promise', meant to energize his progressive base, and keep them in the dark of what he's really planning to do - agreeing with the opposition party.

if the president wants to talk about compassion, why doesn't he start first by talking about repealing affirmative action laws that practice reverse discrimination towards qualified white people who are denied employment because of government mandated racial and gender quotas?

His off mic moment should have been made publicly. I dont get this dude. If you dont fucking like what their doing then fucking say it. Its not like either of their two plans really do anything major in getting us back on track.

75 tax for incomes over 500,000! Cut defense spending in half!

[Darahcos]

Seriously man, if Obama starts acting like a progressive again, and gets re-elected, then he goes back to his republican bowing ways... Needless to say, people are going to be plenty pissed. Almost feels like he is opening trying to con you, and you cannot do anything about it.

[manonthemount]

Fuck obama. hee clearly demonstrates in his speeches that he understands the will of and what is best for the american people.

Then, he clearly demonstrates in his actions that his allegiance lies with the plutocracy and the status quo.

Now, he's going to fool voters into thinking that his second term is going to be any different than the rest of his career.

Obama is like a cheating ex promising that he's a changed man
