Paul Krugman calls Obama a Coward (on HealthCare)
2010-01-21
after an extensive quote of Obama backpedaling on HealthCare
Maybe House Democrats can pull this out, even with a gaping hole in White House leadership. Barney Frank seems to have thought better of his initial defeatism. But I have to say, I'm pretty close to giving up on Mr. Obama, who seems determined to confirm every doubt I and others ever had about whether he was ready to fight for what his supporters believed in.

#7  I'm pretty close to giving up on Mr. Obama.

I knew he was a fake before he got elected, and tried hard to warn friends and famly.
Time now to endure and ignore.
(as much as possible)

I see more and more BULLSHIT Advertisemsnts saying "President Obama wants you to". and I ignore every damn one, whatever they're trying to push.

#6  IMHO, the short list of what Obama is not a coward on: Trashing the U.S. of A. (directly or indirectly.).

Everything else: He's a coward....

#3  Â“Progressives are desperately in need of leadership; more specifically, House Democrats need to be told to pass the Senate bill…”

As nauseating as it may seem for some, right now is a time to listen closely to the words of the Progressive elite. Those that dismiss “Progressives” as mere liberals or Democrats may want to take a closer look. When the Progressives’ plan is working the elite tend to speak in platitudes and doublespeak. However, when they start to see cracks in their agenda they tend to panic and expose their strategies – and ultimately their motivations. Krugman, who always believes he is the smartest person in the room, pulls no punches here. He makes no bones that he doesn’t view US representative democracy as a model but simply as a vehicle. It’s important to note that Progressives have no real party allegiance. Krugman plainly reveals this when he flippantly states, “I'm pretty close to giving up on Mr. Obama”. That’s quite a shot across the bow from one Progressive elite to another.

#2  I'm pretty close to giving up on Mr. Obama.

Will absolutely no lingering doubts whatsoever, I reached the same conclusion well before 4 Nov 2009.
